Just saw this posted, thought I'd share.
I was at 107 deaths at 2:45. Then I decided to go down a path a little too soon and a half hour later I have added 40 deaths.
Over half my deaths would be from trying to get to a place where i needed double jump, so close to getting between the walls i thought my timing was off but 30 odd deaths later i decided to move on.
Its not hype. For me its up there with Super Metroid, Castlevania SOTN, and Shadow Complex. However if your not into those type of 2D games or challenging platformers I can't say you'll get into it.
Keep in mind that I generally do not like Indie side-scrolling platform games, but this game, well, it is fantastic. Level design, music, controls, gameplay are all top notch. It's pretty too.
From what I've heard Moon studios is made up of industry vets from around the world. I'd consider it more like a small studio game than an indie since the overall production is so very top notch. I can't say I've seen a more beautiful 2D game ever.
Yea but if I go and make a crappy game am I an Indie? To call some of these developers indies just feels like I'm lowering their accomplishments to an amateur level. That's just me though, I just fell like I'm disrespecting some of them when I call them indie.
Indie doesn't actually mean amateur. It simply means a small studio that makes game for digital distribution. A lot of the time they have limited financial backing and no publisher, but that is not a steadfast rule.
I thought it technically meant people who ware fedoras and drink espressos and talk about things they can't be bothered to actually do.
Nah, you have confused it with cabinet meetings.
Well, it doesn't look like I'll get to go back to Forlorn Ruins.
Kinda sucks because I was at 98% there and 100% everywhere else so far. I guess I'll have to play through again.

Looks like you've completed basically the whole game?Well, it doesn't look like I'll get to go back to Forlorn Ruins.
How long did it take you?
I haven't finished it yet, but it appears I've spent 22 hour so far this playthrough; I explore everything I can with a lot of trial and error.
Nice.I haven't finished it yet, but it appears I've spent 22 hour so far this playthrough; I explore everything I can with a lot of trial and error.
In your opinion, let's say someone finished the game without trying to explore everything... let's say some exploring and stuff, but not tons. How long would the game be?
Just trying to gauge game length as I wouldn't be going after all secrets and stuff.
I'd say some of that comes down to your proficiency with the game, because it doesn't hold your hand and does require some skill. I would say that playing casually on your first time would be between 6 to 12 hours depending on that.
Just made it out of the ginso tree.Did you make it though Forlorn Ruins? that just cost me like 100 deaths
