I find it really interesting that people thought Ken Levine was doing a sendup of Tea Party people and fundamentalist Christians. This game clearly is a version of American society that embraced a Soviet-esque national religion.
I'm not really seeing all that much that's "lol this is a right wing society"- Untrod Tripod

that's a great idea. I'd much rather sell to a scummer than a game store anyway.In post 250, JDodge wrote:
if you're interested in selling let me know what ones, i can probably give you a better deal on them (i want to start building an N64 collection to complement my SNES one) than you'd get selling to a dealerIn post 248, Untrod Tripod wrote:evidently some of my 64 carts are worth some money, so I'm gonna go sell a few and buy new ones. no real desire to play Harvest Moon on the original console (or really ever again) so this seems like good move.- Untrod Tripod

So I've been playing Illusion of Gaia lately. Great game so far. Highly recommend!
The only problem I've had with it so far is that it's by far better on a control pad than keyboard. The controls are more or less designed around the functionality of a handheld controller, and it ends up being hella clunky on keyboard.- Untrod Tripod

yeah sure.In post 1266, Chevre wrote:
Could you delve into this a bit more? I'm by no means saying it's abadgame, I just watched a playthrough of the first bit and it looks fun but ultimately pretty standard. What's novel other than the shovel?
Also my friend gifted me Antichamber for my birthday! How exciting! But I still have like Hotline: Miami and the first Ace Attorney to beat, and I haven't even started Pokemon X. :/ At least there are actually several games I'm interested in.
I said good, rather than any other adjective, for a reason. Shovel Knight was a game where the designers knew exactly what they wanted and executed it. I really appreciate how tightly focused the gameplay is. The items were great because each one wasn't totally necessary, but allowed you to customize the feel of the game to your specific style of play. Using a combination of items and armor you can get vastly different gameplay, which I really appreciate. Each of the stages is designed very differently around a central theme, so I really appreciated the amount of specialization I was able to get on my character from the items. Simply put, the game just FELT great to play. I don't get that a lot, especially with indie games.
I really liked the art, character, and level design. Along the lines of the designers knowing what they wanted, it really felt like they had a definite plan before they started. None of the areas of the game felt tacked on or lacking inspiration.
It's an extremely well-designed platformer that clearly was made by people who understand game design.
Just... play the game. It's fun.- Untrod Tripod

I actually had the exact same experience. The playthrough was very different for me.In post 1269, Chevre wrote:Thanks UT! I think I told myself not to watch anymore of the playthrough because I was "bored" but subconsciously, yeah, I think I might give it a go sometime down the road.- Untrod Tripod

My favorite world is by far Black Velvetopia. It has such cool art style and level design.

so I've been playing http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satellavie ... no_Sekiban and it's a lot of fun because I always wished they had done more with the LttP engine, but it's kind of disappointing at the same time. hard to explain why.- Untrod Tripod
