Gameplay & Discussion / Re: Getting Back Into Fangames - Need A Little Help

« on: April 18, 2015, 06:30:11 PM »

Sweet! Okay so I'm removing I Wanna Be Myself and adding in Serial Experiments, Meltdown, and Butterfly. Thanks for the suggestions!

no Super Kid Bros 3? Sad days

Beat it when it came out! It's on my completed list.

Why not just go through the Savage Mountain Challenge? 

I just know for a fact that I'm going to hate playing through quite a few of those games. I'll probably eventually go for it, though. Awesome idea with it btw! Just doing the same sort ofthing but personalized by my own list of unfinished/noteworthy fangames.

Anyway... Isn't https://delicious-fruit.com/ exactly the answer to something like this?

I thought I'd get recommendations through here first because it isn't immediately apparent whether or not they're straight avoidance or unfinished. There could also very well be more fangames that people really liked that haven't made it on to the site. I'll still probably make my way down that list a bit to fill up some empty slots for sure.

Gameplay & Discussion / Getting Back Into Fangames - Need A Little Help

« on: April 18, 2015, 12:36:48 PM »

I've felt a lack of motivation to playing and beating fangames as of late. I needed something to spice things up so I figured I would maybe do the K2 Savage Mountain challenge as well instead of just mindlessly playing through one here or there. But then I realized I would hate playing through some of those (GB/Time Machine/any of stage 1 at the very least). Instead, I figure I should just set up a similar challenge for myself to go through and clear some of the okay-to-great fangames I already have.

What I need help with is what I should be removing from my list. I did most of the removals already but there's still quite a few on here I have no idea about. Some of these I haven't even opened up. They were either thrown into the folder based on recommendation or just randomly.

Things I Want Off My List

• Pretty bad games - if you think they're even just ok I'll keep them on
• Games that are just straight up avoidance
• Unfinished games

My Folder

(click to show/hide)

I stopped 7 of these games on final bosses so I guess I'll split my folder cleaning challenge up into 7 segments. So I'm willing to take up to 11 more fangames (barring any removals) if you guys feel like throwing some particularly good ones my way. Otherwise I'll just take a look at whoever's completed list and snag em from there. Kinda want to set up a challenging final segment for myself.

My completed list so you know what I've already finished: httpss://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ADuRYvx3vlrlmiBwHboL6nxPCy1icdocZjcNx7imMIo/edit#gid=0

Thanks dudes

Courtesy of Adam_AK. Spreading the word to you guys: https://pastebin.com/U6PhGYTm

tl;dr version:
 
-- Stream delay is being set to the minimum (2s chunks) for more streams. The main focus group for this would be smaller streams that rely more heavily on chat interaction (a lot of speedrunning streams, inter alia). If successful, it will be further extended.
-- Audio muting appeals are handled by a small team atm, but it's being expanded. Regardless of response time, report any unjustified audio muting. The more reports there are, the better it can be refined. Remember: Game audio is never meant to be flagged!
-- Audio is being removed from VoDs, but it's also stored separately. Once the muting system has been improved beyond the 30 minute chunks (ETA: weeks/few months, depends on AudibleMagic), audio may be restored to older VoDs. This is resource intensive, however.
-- Separate audio channels for streams has become part of pipeline to be put in the product plan. No engineers working on this full time yet, but given the awesome applicability, don't be surprised to see it one day. Example: Multiple commentary audio streams for AGDQ on a single Twitch channel.
-- More transparency of changes/updates via partnered channels (which is why you're reading this pastebin!). Easy way to diffuse information to specific communities.

He links a screen of a stream that's already down to 6 seconds delay (though I'm assuming this is a best case scenario) and that is pretty awesome news.

Probably this. This was before I beat Meteor Stream: https://www.twitch.tv/tenshotstv/c/3805765

But shit it was only partially my fault.

Ah right I should have figured they did their end timing like that. I've been doing the final split when I touch the star. I'm down to switch it up and compete with their no-turbo times, though.

32:40 (turbo on all equips) by Reisen uploaded. https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm23275735

Haha wow shit there are some amazing strats in there! Sky Planet is insane. Unfortunately don't think that Sky Boss strat is going to work out with no turbo since he can instantly stick all 5 bombs to that wall, but there's a lot of new stuff to work on and incorporate.

EDIT*
Got my time down to a 38:10 with the new strats. I imagine sub-37 won't be too hard to reach.

Sum of best is at a 35:32 now.

Yep turbo's built into the regular gun in Galaxy so that's fair game. I guess they might use turbo for all weapons, though. I need that translation.

EDIT*
What I gathered is they run both turbo and non-turbo categories. I was just confused as to whether or not no turbo meant no in-game turbo, so I talked to the dude with the 32:40, れいせん (Reisen), on Twitter: www.twitter.com/raysen9

A有B有 = turbo on all A and B equips
A無B無 = no turbo, but in-game turbo IS allowed

Still want a full translation of all their rules. Someone told me they could get ahold of family who's fluent in Japanese tomorrow.

Sweet apparently there are a few active Japanese runners right now, too. Is someone able to translate their set of rules?

Figured this would be the most convenient way for me to hear from the other guys and also share what I know. Thanks zuzu for getting me into running the game and showing me all them strats! Game is so much fun

I threw together a quick kill video for the Sky Planet Boss and Kamek. I was initially going to just record Sky, but thought it might be good to show Kamek to the people who haven't seen it.



Do you guys have better strats for the Sky Boss? I only had Zurai's old PB vod to look at and tweaked the approach used in there.
