This comes out in a couple hours. Anyone care?

First time I've even heard of it

>>383689564
It's Edmund McMillen's new game.

>>383689736
Am I supposed to know who that is?

>>383689505
THIS GAME GAVE ME AAIIIIIDS

>>383689875
you will soon because he payed for this thread

>>383689875
Yeah, OP is Edmund shilling his fucking game right now.

I'm cautiously excited because Meat Boy was great. This looks relatively slow paced though.

>>383689505
>Trusting Fagmund after Afterbirth and Afterbirth+

What am I, a battered girlfriend?

It's gonna be a shit version of meatboy isn't it?

Meatboy and Binding of Isaac.

>>383691007
This, sadly.
Whatever happened to the endless runner meat boy and the cat game?

>>383689505

I'm fucking over this brand of game.

Whoever started this trend of "le rogue-lite metroidvania xD" indie SHIT games needs to go back in time and make their mother swallow the load that gave them life

>>383691318
>Whatever happened to the endless runner meat boy
still exists I think, it was being shilled during SGDQ

>and the cat game?
indefinite backburner, I guess they couldn't figure out how to make it an actually fun game

>>383691385
>"le rogue-lite metroidvania xD"
but it's a level based platformer

>>383691385
>"le rogue-lite metroidvania xD"
It's just a normal platformer dude.

>Ridiculon soundtrack
nice
>It's just covers of classical songs
uhh

Holy shit I pre-ordered this and completely forgot about it until now. I hope it's good.

Is Rich Evans actually doing voice work for the game, or just the trailer?

>>383689505
But I already played super meatboy and this looks exactly the same. Seriously look at this.

>>383692347
Super Meat Boy is like 7 years old. I'm up for an expansion pack.

>>383692301
He voices the character, but I don't know how much voice-over you'll really get, given what it is.

>>383689736
What ever happened to that cat game he was making?

>why would a developer make a pseudo-sequel to a very popular game which came out 7 years ago?

Hopefully they put in proper controller support and don't put a cringey "Xbox 360 > keyboard" splash screen this time. Literally any controller is better that x360 for this type of game.

>>383695697
he hates people who datamine his games for secrets, which has made him a lot of enemies

>>383692747
Mewgenics was canceled last year

>>383696453
Sure, but it doesn't look better, so what's the point?

>>383696952
SMB is one my favourite games but this shit made me want to punch Ed in his fat face.

>>383691243
maybe if you had some talent you could :^)

Gameplay looks like meatboy and gish fell into kitchen blender. Kinda meh.

>>383697038
No he doesn't, he said multiple times that he was just annoyed and people exagerated his words.
The Afterbirth ARG and missing content was the real fuckup.

>>383697140
Source.

>>383695697
Half of the Afterbirth DLC was kept from release as retaliation against data miners for figuring out a super secret character way earlier than they hoped in the vanilla game. It's partly that and it was 'originally intended' to release later because there was an ARG on unlocking the other half of the DLC. The DLC itself also wasn't as good as Wrath of the Lamb was to the original Isaac either.

Afterbirth+ was a buggy, lazy piece of shit rushed to launch but it's getting only slightly better because of bug patches and bimonthly "booster packs" of new items.

That's about it other than and people call him Steakmund because of an interview with him about The Lost had Tyrone, the other dev of the game calling it "swallowing a steak in one bite" and both reacting negatively about it. He doesn't seem like a bad guy but he really fucked up with one of his creations.

>>383689736
Dude, it's not like he's Kojima or Miyamato or something.

You're gonna need to mention his games along with his name for people to know wtf you're talking about.

>>383697774
he's one of the most famous indie devs

>>383689505
>It's just super meat boy again
What a fucking hack

>>383697856
Look, I've played/Liked Binding of Isaac, and even I don't remember the guys name.

Probably better to introduce him like this:

>Edmund McMillen's, the creator of such games as Binding of Isaac and Super Meat Boy.....

Or something like that. At the moment, his name is not cemented to his games like other creators I mentioned. It would be best if you were promoting him to keep his game names and his name in the same sentence until such time that it catches on.

>>383697425
>No he doesn't, he said multiple times that he was just annoyed and people exagerated his words

Motherfucker got so angry at the datamining he splerged out with shitty food metaphors and locked content out of greed mode for days after the release just so people couldn't datamine it to see what's inside of it.

He still hasn't learned from that time people criticized his leaderboard security (which got exploited a day after he said "lol nope") that he is an out of touch drag-and-drop developer. He reacts to situations too little too late because he was never disciplined to be proactive, or to just calm the fuck down instead of acting like a clown when somebody does something he couldn't prevent.

That's because he's a game/level designer and not a developer. It's always someone else programming, but obviously he doesn't want to throw anyone under the bus.

>>383698681

I never understood what "reddit spacing" was. I still don't.

edmund couldnt into game design if his life depended on it.

Here I'll drop some hot opinions. People will compare this to Super Meat Boy but it's more like IWBTG in a lot of ways, at least in the way levels are structured. Also, It controls much better than SMB, the ability to do Spelunky-style fliphangs is tremendously useful.

>>383707297
gotta go to the restaurant right now, I forgot this was the launch night

played a bit, it feels challenging but fair, and some of those tumors require you to think outside the box, I like it so far

will play more tommorow, I'm sure there will be a thread for this

>>383707297
This is true
And just like IWBTG or IWBTG fangames I find it a lot more precise with a keyboard
Sometimes I even try to double jump when I can't

>IWBTG
So are there bullshit traps with hair-pin triggers that you can't possibly predict until you die to it once?

From what I've played there's no power ups or moves you unlock, it's going to be the exact same game from start to finish. Which isn't a bad thing, but when you take into account the fact that all the unlockables don't really do anything besides give you more levels to play I feel like this game's going to get old real quick.

Also that Denial cartridge is fucking bullshit; make the levels in the carts more difficult then let me spawn every three levels or so, it's just muscle memory at that point

>Edmund still can't even spell "acquired"

nice trailer dipshit you really sold me on your quality game

Just played it for 15 minutes, it's like Meatboy minus the fast frantic movement. Hard pass. He literally bombards you with screens where you have to wait for 15+ seconds for the platform to drop so you can repeat the jump you failed previously. Movement itself feels very sluggish regardless of intent.

I hope this hack makes something like Coil or Aether next

>>383711770
No, it's not the Kaizo kind of difficulty. At least, it hasn't been the case in the first 2 worlds.

For those completitionist fucks out there, it looks like you have to beat every cartridge without dying to get a bonus tumor, even though there's no ingame "achievement" for it. Also, I can't confirm this because I haven't actually done it yet but I think you also need to beat them without dying and while getting every single collectible for 100% too.
>>383712925
No it was actually the first spike you could possible collide with, I wasn't paying attention.

>>383710535
But the fun comes from Steam achievments, how will a torrent help

I think I'm gonna refund this, it seems pretty repetitive so far and not very interesting

>>383713019
In a row? If you can do each one individually, it does not sounds that hard to be honest

>>383713165
the lack of unlockable characters hurts it
>>383713183
individually, though I'm sure there's some bullshit BEAT EVERY CARTRIDGE IN A ROW WITHOUT DYING achievement

>>383711770
No, it's very similar in the gameplay
Like the fact that you get a lot of air control in your jump.
The level design is also similar and I'm not talking about the "bullshit traps" but how the level is laid out with the precise spike jumps and all.

>>383689736
he just designs most of this shit its not "his" new game you fuckface

which is why iam not gonna buy it gameplaywise it looks boring af

Just beat world 3 and trying a cart game. Pretty cool so far, I feel like this is harder than meat boy
