Help with fangame recommendations
« on: January 07, 2017, 09:39:53 AM »
Could anyone recommend me the best fangames which meet the following conditions:
  • ability to change controls, because my shift button is currently broken
  • english language, because I'm using Wine for running windows programs and it doesn't support japanese
  • not laggy, because my computer is unspeakably slow
?
Sorry for the lenght of the list. I'm planning on buying a new device but first make as much use as possible of the old one.

There aren't many games out there that allow you to change controls in-game; only ones I can think of at the top of my head are the original, KTG, Boshy, and K3, and the only one of those I'd recommend are KTG. There are key-binding programs out there that I'd recommend using, specifically AutoHotkey.


I don't know what to recommend exactly, so I guess just check out all of Ef's games (Colorless Sorrow 1+2, destroy the venus, destroy the mercury, destroy the pluto, Phantom Needle 1+2 (if you can find them)); they're all needle, but really good needle, and they shouldn't be resource-intensive at all.

Nah, I'm pretty sure there are a few, like crimson collab, smile away, etc.

But thanks! I'll check them out.

So far I can say Colorless Sorrow (both parts) is somehow laggy but Pluto is ok

Oh wew, I actually played incremental game and really appreciated the fact that you could change controls easily.

It was sadly a bit laggy tho, from what I remember.

But I'll def make sure to play it on my new pc!

Also I'm working on remapping my keys in lubuntu just now, so I won't enforce the controls rule that much
