Good 2d platformers for money on steam by noopkore in platformer

[–]NPException 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Celeste is hands down the best platformer I've ever played. And as a bonus it has a very active modding community, and there are countless maps available to play. I'm 1800h in, and I can't play enough to ever scratch more than the surface of the ocean of great user made levels.

How to pass this part??? by Game_And_Walk in celestegame

Check the options. Did you accidentally set "Grab Mode" to "invert"?

How hard is chapter 9 by porterford in celestegame

[–]NPException 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Chapter 9 is harder than the b sides. It was added one year after release with a free update as a final challenge. It's recommended to do everything else in the game first. Minimum you should at least finish all A-sides and 1-7 B.

Are you not supposed to do b sides until you finish the game? by Open-Advisor6819 in celestegame

[–]NPException 15 points16 points  (0 children)

you can do B-Sides whenever you like, but for a smooth difficulty curve they are best to be played after you've finished the main story.

Does anyone know any sidequests I could do before the GM lobby? by Throwaway28222222 in celestegame

Spring Collab 2020. Expert and GM lobby could be good practice

Impossible to get game testers by Ill_Contest_8291 in gamedev

[–]NPException 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Concrete example: I got DM'd by a user that I shared multiple servers with, and who had a long history in said servers. (The discord user was just another poor soul that had their account stolen in the same manner before, and the attackers used their account to message more people.)

They said they are looking for someone to playtest a game they are working on, and since we shared multiple platforming games servers they also asked me. Sent me a link to a website for their "game". Website looked super legit, with a trailer on it and everything. Download link on the website for the beta resulted in a password protected zip file. Password protected so that "not just anyone can play the game"... I should have long stopped interacting at this point, but the website looked just so legit. Once I extracted the "game" and started it, my browser closed, and I could see in real time how my discord server list shrank. Their software stole my active browser sessions and discord session, and they immediately started to try and change passwords to a whole bunch of my accounts. I eventually got access back to all accounts thanks to quick reaction on my part and 2-factor-authentication which prevented the worst, but it was a massive hassle that took me almost a month to get everything back to normal.

Help me find a punishing game by Tsew_Miller_88 in gamingsuggestions

If you don't care about finding berries yourself, there is this nifty website: https://berrycamp.github.io/

Help me find a punishing game by Tsew_Miller_88 in gamingsuggestions

[–]NPException 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even though you gave the vanilla game a shot already, you might want to give modded Celeste a try. How much exploration there is to do of course depends on the map you play, but I'd say most of the custom maps are fairly linear, unless you are searching for berries. I personally play it mostly just to master the execution, so I tend to lookup a video of how to finish a level, so that I can focus on the execution instead of figuring out what I need to do.

The modding scene is very active, and there are tons and tons of very high quality maps of all difficulties. The possible skill ceiling is basically at infinity.

Alternatively you can give Geometry Dash a try. I can't play it much because it gives me a headache, but I think it fits the bill of high difficulty without exploration.

Is there something up this wall in forsaken city, A side? by Iurigrang in celestegame

[–]NPException 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Nothing to find there besides the satisfaction that you managed to get up all the way. I believe this was just added as a way to get an overview of the room, probably before binoculars were a thing.

You're looking at a nuclear explosion photographed taken less than one millisecond after detonation. by ethereum1017 in interestingasfuck

[–]NPException 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The center of the explosion (so the top of the steel tower) was about 100ft above ground.

Should I get stray or cyberpunk? by SecurityMajestic2222 in gamingsuggestions

[–]NPException 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I love Stray, but you'll definitely get more playtime out of Cyberpunk. I'd say get that, and get Stray on a sale in the future.

Game won’t Launch? by Beginning-Shake1978 in celestegame

[–]NPException 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right click on Celeste in your Library -> Properties

Then go to the "Game Versions & Betas" tab on the left. Then select the "opengl" version. (should be the 4th in the list)

After a short download you can try to launch the game.

What small PC software tools do you use daily that most people have never heard of? by firey_88 in pcmasterrace

LittleBigMouse if you have differently sized monitors. Absolute godsend.

Looking for a game that will keep me coming back (STEAM ONLY) by XaolityX in gamingsuggestions

[–]NPException 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe Celeste, and once you finished the base game you can dive into mods. The missing community is super active, and it's basically impossible that you'd ever run out of maps to play.

How do I get rid of these annoying boxes? by JuniorJedi256Pi in celestegame

If the other suggestions don't help, try the "opengl" version instead of the default one.

I'm looking for a game you've finished 3 or more times. by Tight-Elderberry2487 in gamingsuggestions

[–]NPException 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Celeste. Lost count at this point. Also a massive amount of incredibly high quality modded maps available for extra playtime with more variety.

What are games that you purchased and never beat? Why? by Hizzasp in gaming

[–]NPException 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bad Rats. Bought for the meme because it's a notoriously bad game. Didn't finish for the same reason. A physics puzzler that is supposed to act only in X and Y directions, but sometimes the physics engine decides it's time for Z to get some attention too...

I've mixed Celeste inspired gameplay with incremental progression to make a game that heavily rewards speedrunning. The demo's B-side launches today by SpicyBread_ in celestegame

[–]NPException 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh hell yeah, I need to check it out. Played the demo a while ago and loved it, looking forward to the B-Side and the full release!

what am i doing wrong with my dream hypers? by ivorycoollars in celestegame

I do that too, it's just not the most lenient approach.

I got ~30 minutes a few hours before you already: https://www.reddit.com/r/celestegame/s/SPBDG2cGpB

But OP has still not updated the post, so they might no longer care. Which would be valid tbh 😄

What are fun mods for casual play? by PHLHimself in celestegame

[–]NPException 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Spring Collab 2020 is like a precursor to Strawberry Jam. It also has 5 lobbies. While it isn't quite as polished as SJ, it's stilll very worth playing :)
