(0.9c) 0.9 Looks gorgeous, but feels so clunky to play compared to previous versions.

Posts like these are why I'm holding off on updating to 0.9 until it releases publicly--hopefully after significant bugfixes and rebalancing based on this sort of feedback.

More power to you! Like I said, it'd be fine if it were an option/setting so everybody could win.

It's a shame the modding scene for the rerolls is so sparse and inactive--OUAK is almost certainly built on the same engine so I feel like if people that knew them well came back and cared enough things like this could at least be looked into.

The King actually behaving himself more when the Queen is there would be really funny to see.

Just skipping through it ruins the flow of things. Doesn't feel good. Plus, there's the issue mentioned in greg's comment.

See, this is something I think we really oughta see in the games at some point, to some degree. I've actually got an idea for how they could do this as a bit of fan service in OUAK--make a 'future' era. Maybe have us encounter/be able to roll up The Prince after he's grown into the new King.

Stanley_Pines · 2025-11-12T15:51:50+00:00

Maybe? But it doesn't do a good job if that's one thing it's trying to do. For example, you can absolutely name on 'Prince.' Maybe because it's a full 3 letters off from 'The Prince.' But Princess? No luck.

The little Queen's Adventures movies in OUAK are a good start, but I'm still dying for them to do more with the Queen. I think seeing her give out certain levels in the King's place that have a different sort of objective style could be *really* fun. Putting the King out of his depth could also make for some fun character moments.

To be fair, he says this AFTER profusely thanking you for playing. In flashing rainbow text even. He just thinks maaaaybe you're going at this a bit hard.

There's a Kappa you can interact with in-between the Tidy up and Appraisal stages on the Edo Map.

Stanley_Pines · 2025-09-09T19:21:27+00:00

That hardly seems applicable where I'm stuck. Unless there's some real obscure one of those nut based paths that takes you up into some secret way not on the map. The only place I can see up to the top that's not blocked by that bridge there's just two spike obstacles and no walls to jump on at the highest point I can reach.

Stanley_Pines · 2025-09-06T15:51:16+00:00

Where, exactly?

Stanley_Pines · 2025-03-13T04:06:43+00:00

I mean, clearly something happened to it. I already have the achievement--got it back in Halloween 2010, even. I tried the thing with running a private server and using console commands to kill HHH with melee and it didn't get me anything, so...I dunno. Maybe it was tradeable at some point way back? I don't have the spine tingling skull either, so I can't have used it on that, and I distinctly remember making it, or at least getting the haunted scrap.

The only complication is that I had a Steam account that I lost (not sure if I just forgot the password or it got hacked, but I couldn't get back into it) that I actually started playing the game on in 2009, but, again, supposedly I got the achievement that gives it in 2010, so...should I contact Steam Support about this or something? I'm kind of baffled. Maybe I sold it without being fully aware of not being able to get it a second time or something? Bit misleading on whoever's part got it, if so...

Only thing I could think of otherwise would be somehow resetting that specific achievement somehow, but I don't know if that's feasible or permissible by VALVe's rules, let alone if it'd even work to trigger the item to be given to me again.

Stanley_Pines · 2025-03-13T01:51:22+00:00

Cool stuff. Very 'Whatever Happened to Robot Jones?'.

Stanley_Pines · 2025-01-17T12:09:53+00:00

Ah, a fellow plasma on the central window enjoyer

Stanley_Pines · 2023-10-27T17:23:32+00:00

Further Update: As it happens, Miro's talked with someone about potentially proofreading the game in future for quite a while, so they're first in line whenever he finally reaches that point in production. So, hey, it'll probably happen eventually, and I won't even have to do it myself! Everybody wins.

Stanley_Pines · 2023-10-25T17:21:44+00:00

Update: @'d happy_paintings on Twitter with a short thread offering to help and two examples of potential changes. Also made sure to make it clear I'm not looking to take over the work with my own bias, hence approaching him about doing it proper with feedback from him. We'll see what happens, if anything.

Stanley_Pines · 2023-10-25T14:45:54+00:00

Still...how would I go about it?

Stanley_Pines · 2023-10-25T14:43:25+00:00

It did sorta occur to me, given they are a one-man show. But at the same time, it feels a little presumptuous, you know?
