Alright I want to get back in the saddle of doing reviews so let's talk about Anodyne for a bit, shall we? Today I'll be blathering on about the adventure title, Anodyne, as developed by Sean HTCH and Joni Kittaka.

Now this game is a bit of weird one. You play as Young who at the behest of the Village Elder, Sage, needs to stop the Evil Darkness from reaching the Legendary Briar and destroying the world. And that's about all you're given for plot. The game has Young travelling from one mind-trip to another as the connection between the each world is rather jarring. The whole experience is rather surreal as you travel from various locations with seemingly no rhyme or reason such as forest, circus, hotel, and red fleshy dungeon in a whirlpool. All of this with a gameplay style that reminds me of A Link to the Past with its fluid movement, pixel-aesthetic, and handle on puzzles. And puzzles are a solid part of the gameplay; usually involving pressing switches and moving clumps of dust around with the broom Young wields as his weapon.

>>141988620
When I say that's all you're given in story I really do mean that. There's plenty of dialogue but it doesn't seems to put together a full picture or even part of one. I mean sure something may have flown over my head but I'll leave that to the theorists and just go with the general consensus that this game is surrealer than a Beatle's music video on heroine. It leads to some interesting experiences but it also left the ending feeling rather meh. It's hard to give something payoff when you don't make it clear what you're building up to or what everything is for. All that aside I suppose to question to ask is "Is the game fun?". And to that I say yes. I enjoyed exploring the strange worlds, defeating the slew of bosses, all while a trippy but fitting soundtrack accompanied me.The game as a whole gives off vibes of Earthbound and Yume Nikki in terms of its strangeness and I couldn't get enough.

If that sounds appealing then go buy it. Don't have the money? Just use the torrent the devs set up and pay them later. They did that, I shitteth thee naught. It seems as if someone is savvy on the mindset of pirates.

Vapor wait did I already make that joke: http://store.steampowered.com/app/234900/

What's surreal is that I have non-spambot followers: http://just-some-anon.tumblr.com

I know sampling is normal in music, but both these soundtracks are a lot less impressive once you hear how unchanged it is, sometimes just looping a single sample is almost the entire track.

Very few female characters, plus Sugar and Queenie aren't that fappable although Cinnamom or however you spell it did a pretty good job with the former.

>with the last broom you get right before the endboss you can explore the games world i totally nw ways. The brooms power is t take one square away and place it somewhere else. This will allow for going out of bounds of the normal maps and lead to a lot of creepy discoverys in the vein of sunny town in pokemon blue/red.

I like games that are fun without being "gamey"

Gunpoint is pretty cool. You get to be a secret agent and rewire things and shit.

This is not a roguelike. It's a roguelite. You will spend hours of boring grind through the samish looking rooms to update your shit, then be able to defeat the bosses. I got 49 hours into it with everything unlocked but only because I played it while watching agdq. Otherwise the game would be just as boring and grindy as BoI.

>>142056293

Because the dude spends more time complaining than working plus from my understanding they're having problems with people working on it.

>>142056159
One game for Friday, one for Saturday

>>142056293
Holy shit. To be honest this is probably the only roguelite I've ever played. I'm used to classic roguelikes where grinding is either hard or actively discouraged as opposed to learning the mechanics. Grinding over generations sounds cancerous and to me misses the whole point.
Maybe I can still get a refund

>>142055125

>>142055125
I hate the setting and I dont like Earthbound that much

>>142056880
other two trailers led me to believe at least. Gotta love when you turn auto post off and it does anyways. My main problem is that the battle system just looks sorta slow. Too much stuff going on and it doesn't feel like it flows well. It looks interesting though but those mini games look like they'd slow the game down, unlike something like The Desolate Hope wehre the minigames played WHILE the actual fight took place, which kept the game from bogging down like the desolate hope sorta did.

Clovis I'm there already!

>>142055125

>>142065338
I think this is just a problem with how a lot of people evaluate games. A lot of people grade games like they would a piece of technology and ignore, for lack of a better word, the artistry of a game. This has been around forever, like say the original Resident Evil games. Many people criticized them for their awkward tank controls but others praised its clunky controls because that makes the horror experience better.

>>142060693
Anyone with taste.
