spoiler
Yes on your last point I can imagine it would be really depressing. I was getting excited to go through it all but yeah the message is interesting. I got the mirror shortcut pretty early so I wondered if it would end up being something like this. I am someone who usually loves to get every last drop out of a game and I can understand the magic of a game being lost. Like, when I played ocarina of time when I was young, I definitely did not find everything, so I left that world knowing there was more out there, and that knowledge was kind of magical and made the world feel bigger than it really is. It helps keep the illusion alive I feel when you don’t consume all the magic it has to offer

I’ve been loving it so far! Definitely think I’ve only scratched the surface. I find the writing hilarious but also there’s just something about the low tide music combined with watching everything play out that is so fun and satisfying

I may have said this before way back but I once again am trying to first get a little holedown style brick breaker thing on playdate. But from there I would love to try and make a wario ware style thing, which the scene structure of noble engine seems well suited for

Gloom Gate is insane! I was playing and my partner was like “I didn’t realize the playdate could do stuff like that” Neither did I haha.
I’m actually trying to get back into playing the playdate more and doing some dev! AI has generally made me very pessimistic and depressed about the games space so I’ve somewhat retreated to the playdate as a bastion of mostly AI free stuff. In fact I’ve been looking at your noble game engine example project a decent amount to try and gauge if I want to use it for my stuff! It’s a great repo, thanks for making it :)

I find the gameplay more interesting this time around honestly. There are so many ways to mix and match your moves. You get 3 choices of a primary attack, 3 choices of a secondary attack, and I think like 6 or 7(?) combo finishers. You can mix and match those in a bunch of ways and each of those have their own trees to improve them, and you can swap them out. You start with one primary attack but can unlock everything as you find materials and stuff.
And those are just your normal moves. Each of the bosses you can fight will give a combat ability which uses a power meter that recharges by using your normal attacks. The bosses each give you a choice of 2-3 combat abilities to have at any one time, and you can swap later if desired (with certain items). Plus there are various attack types that different enemies are or resistant against, plus some of the status effects you can apply have synergies.
Exploring is a total treat too. The areas feel so packed with cool things to find and do. Just having an absolute blast

Hey all! Yeah sorry I haven’t been active. I got busy and was trying to mostly stay off social media for mental health reasons, and then honestly got embarrassed about not posting for so long. But, I am down to start posting again! If everyone seems cool with that I can go ahead and make one now! This doesn’t really solve anything if I do disappear again but I’ll try and be better about it. And I can reach out to other mods / admins about taking it over if I go MIA again
