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

General Discussion / Twitch Changes/Future Plans

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.

Gameplay & Discussion / Galaxy Speedruns

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.
