hah I won candy box 2 in one day, with a LITTLE hint seeking but not much
meanwhile I still have cookie clicker in my background. unlike candy box it takes no attention, just get to see my tab change now & then, like watching the clock

i think that it'll actually be less effective in poser 3D style vs. sprite art. also don't really want to play it again tbh

My brother just released this fun (and challenging on the higher difficulties) little arcade style game. It's free...

Here's the trailer...

The controls are really simple. You aim with the mouse and vacuum up energy pellets (and power-ups) with the space bar. I did a bunch of play testing on it, and I think it turned out pretty good and addicting.

Aw, that was cute. I think I liked it better in that thunder-cloud game from a while back, but this was a reasonable little distraction.

Huh - does that play better with a controller? Found it really unnatural and jerky with a keyboard, just kind of bouncing all over the place. Nice look, mind you...

Just now finally got around to Cave Story, first mentioned in-thread by Penguin USA Paper in 2007. Got hooked on it for a few days and had a ball, thinking it was one of the best Metroidvania type games I'd played (though considerably more linear than the genre ideally implies) - in particular I thought the difficult curve was just about perfect. Plus you just have to admire the "one man's obsessive project" aspect of it.
Then I got to the last boss, got completely stuck, checked a walkthrough and realized I'd missed all this stuff and was consequently totally underpowered and probably screwed totally. Kinda pissed now. In particular, to get fully powered and save everybody and so on, at one point you have to just walk past and ignore a key NPC who's shown up seemingly injured and out of place, who wants to give you a jetpack. This is just brutally counter-intuitive, a real beast of a beginner's trap. The only thing I can figure is that Amaya was counting on hardcore players to come back through the game and challenge themselves to win without the jetpack - and then pleasantly discover all this other cool shit happening as a result. On one level, I totally respect that, but on another...WTF???????? Super frustrating. It's possible I might be able to beat the last boss without all this, but a) who would want to? and b) it's a run of four consecutive bosses with no save or recharge along the way, so each attempt is kind of a brutal marathon. I dunno if I have it in me.
― Doctor Casino, Monday, 3 February 2014 02:55 (ten years ago) link
I never beat it either fwiw, basically for the reasons you mention
― Nhex, Monday, 3 February 2014 03:05 (ten years ago) link
That stuff is secret, and for second playthroughs only. The last boss is beatable without them.
― zanarkand bozo (abanana), Monday, 3 February 2014 03:37 (ten years ago) link
yes, this ^ - you can def beat the boss w/ a very minimal runthru. good luck tho beating the boss (and hell) after doing everything else.
― Mordy , Monday, 3 February 2014 05:37 (ten years ago) link
Hrmmm, maybe I should give it another go then. It's really the multi-stage boss experience that makes it hard to invest in that. Probably this is a sign of how debased 'difficulty' has become for me in games at this point. I mean, if I was still 10, bring it on!
― Doctor Casino, Monday, 3 February 2014 05:55 (ten years ago) link
Yup, you're right - went back and tried again, and beat the final bosses on the first try. Ha!

also Infinity Wars is a free to play ccg on steam that i'm enjoying atm (mac + pc). if u sign up + use my invite code: D0202, i think i'll get free cards or something. not quite as crisp as hearthstone, but more mechanics + a theme (vaguely dystopian post-apocolyptic biohorror sci-fi cyberpunk?) that i prefer over generic WoW fantasy.

Are people playing much Hearthstone btw? Been trying it the last few days and am really enjoying it (it's my first ever ccg), up for matches if anyone else is on there.
