NIN8HALOS'S PROFILE

I'm a college student. I like games. I'm making some with Super Mario Bros X. I also like to watch Let's Plays. Mostly BoboTheVulture and MysteriousJG.

Castles Masterpiece Sequel

Is this still happening?

Castles Masterpiece Sequel

Which makes me wonder how we would do something similar to Mario's Mansion but with castles. I mean, in mansions there is plenty of variety, such as bathrooms, basements, attics, bedrooms, ballrooms, pantries, foyers, gardens etc.

What kind of differences do we have with castles?
Dungeon? Roof? Garden?
See the problem there?


Someone's obviously never lived in a castle. Peasant.

You could build the game around the context of each level being part of one greater, overarching castle, and enforce this in people's submissions. The Mario's Mansion series did this to varying degrees of success. The original Castles game also had that as the general context, but the game didn't feel like it was all part of one castle.
Yeah, this is probably the best way of doing it.


Maze of Galious.

Looks like Crystalis is on a lot of people's lists. I should check it out.

Rogue-likes for the Less Hardcore

You could try the PS1 game Azure Dreams. It's somewhere between a dungeon crawler and a roguelike. It's also fairly forgiving and the town building is cool.

I'd forgotten about that game. I played it to completion a few years back. It was a neat little game, but I didn't really enjoy it that much.

Recettear counts! It's also amazing. You will spend most of your time not playing the roguelike portion of the game, though.

I wouldn't really consider it a roguelike, even just the dungeon crawling part. But it is a very good game.

Bubble Bobbleis damn good. Surprisingly so. You would think its just pretty decent and okay looking at it, or playing it for the first time. But once you get hooked on it and actually look at the meat and potatoes that comprise it's design (and moreso on the arcade) its pretty genius.

It's a good game, but damn does it get hard. I've never had the chance to play it 2 player though. And that's really how it's meant to be played.

But over all the other games I've played, my absolute favorite is probably Gimmick! The version I'm thinking of is on the famicom though, so that might not count. BUT WHATEVER.

I only became aware of this game recently. Haven't played it, but it look's interesting, and they really went all out with the music.

Rogue-likes for the Less Hardcore

I've played a few roguelikes in recent years, like Shiren the Wanderer, Binding of Isaac, Rogue Legacy, Dungeons of Dredmor. I was wondering if anyone knows of other good roguelikes, preferably ones that aren't brutally hard.

Favorite NES Games

Been playing some classic NES games lately. Mega Man 3, Legacy of the Wizard. I was curious what other people consider to be their favorite NES games.

Your favorite game EVER!

Tough to pick just one, but I'm going with Star Ocean: Second Story. It's just freaking epic.

What Videogames Are You Playing Right Now?

But isn't it? Not only is it an amazingly faithful adaptation of a television/movie franchise (I swear, at one point you'll feel like you're playing a South Park movie), but it's got good mechanics to boot.

The Stick of Truth is probably the most faithful video game adaptation of any fictional work I've ever played. Can't say I'm as thrilled with it as most people are, though. No specific complaints, just hasn't wowed me. Maybe that will change later.
