This game is dookie

how do you know it's not even out yet

>>720298708 (OP)
I used to think it was messed up that female characters were all designed with stereotypical girly characteristics, but if this is the alternative - a female character that is impossible to distinguish from a male - I'd rather things stay as they are.

>>720299162
there is the demo they had which i'm trying right now actually

>>720299474
she looks pretty feminine to me

>>720298708 (OP)
your dookie!!!!!

>>720299606
Remove the knowledge that she’s a girl and look at that design. Does ANYTHING about it scream female and not ambiguous?

>>720299695
it makes me horny which means it's female.

Mina sex

>>720299474
The characters are meant to evoke something similar to the koholint animals

>>720299695
only women and queers wear jackets like hers

i tried the demo and lost any interest in this game

>/v/ thread bitching about a game
ok so it's probably really good

>entire thread is virgins seething about the mouse not being sexy enough
this is why nerds need to be made fun of again, you retards became a stereotype of yourselves. nobody should ever take anything you say seriously with how far gone you are.

>>720299603
I fucking hate the artstyle, it's trying to emulate a 8-bit game but is visually way too busy causing everything to bleed together into a blurry mess. Should've gone for a 16-bit style.

>>720301148
Unironically it would look better with a crt filter.

>>720301148
Suppose to be emulating the look of GB games. Problem is, there’s a reason no one makes retro games with that aesthetic

>>720299695
It screams male, quite frankly. Nothing 'ambiguous' about it. If I didn't know any better, I'd think that was simon belmon in rat form.

>>720301587
>'CRT' filter
>on a motherfucking GBC game
Fuck I hate zoomers.

>"I used to think it was messed up that female characters were all designed with stereotypical girly characteristics"
Literally no one thought this until the mid/late 2010s, sorry you got psyopped by tumblr trannies

>>720301148
GBC color palette restrictions are fun as hell to work with, but it's definitely tough from a visual perspective.
They're following things like sprite color limitations correctly, but they're trying to compensate for details way too much.
50% of the dark pixels on the character's faces should be removed IMO.

>>720302372
Super Game Boy was a thing

>>720301948
Yeah, way too many details on all the sprites and tiles, makes it look muddy and hard to read.
Other GBC inspired games use shading and colors sparingly. Notice how the majority of the ground here is a single color.

Her appearance is giving me ideas in regards to potential sexual encounters with me and other likeminded individuals.

Actually it’s more of a Kerplunk, Yacht Club’s 3rd original IP would be their Dookie, unless you want to argue that 1039/Smooth doesn’t count because it doesn’t have Tré.

>>720298708 (OP)
yeah, its pretty boring/bad

I wanted to like the demo, but Mina moves so slow. Maybe if it wasn't trying to look like Link's Awakening I wouldn't expect her to move at the same rate as Link, but in my brain it just felt like she was moving through mud the entire time.

>>720306768
you're supposed to use the hollowing ability to move more quickly

>>720302372
I played it with one and my first console was nes. First game was Kirby's adventure. It looks better with crt filter.

Have they announced the price yet?

The retro aesthetic worked pretty well for Shovel Knight. But it's been over a decade. And this is the best they could come up with? Do they have any idea how many pixelshit indie games have come out since 2014?

>>720309946
It's also a dark souls wannabe which I guess was still novel in 2014.

>>720301148
Oh yea, why should I believe a rat like you?

>>720309946
Why do niggers here treat pixel art like it's some kind of gimmick, rather than a legitimate visual medium?

>>720311324
No one’s doing that here, it’s the devs themselves who do it. They’re the ones who sell their games as “it’s just like le old retro vidya. This could’ve been a real game in the 90’s!” whenever they use it. Just look at UFO50, you think they went with the “retro” look because that’s the design they liked best or did they do it to sell it on the gimmick of being a fake collection of old retro games from the 80’s?
“Le retro” isn’t a selling point anymore, so if they wanna stand out they gotta do something else

>>720309946
You can tell they kind of struggled to figure out what to do after shovel knight. They ran a poll like 5 years ago for what to make next and a zelda clone won.
>>720311324
People under 30 have been conditioned by AAA to believe graphical fidelity = game quality.

>>720313083
>you think they went with the “retro” look because that’s the design they liked best
Yes, I genuinely they liked the look best. I don't know how you can play that collection for 10 minutes and not immediately sense it was made by a bunch of nostalgic millennials.

>>720311135
he's a real gamer.

>>720298708 (OP)
The art style is awful. Even UFO 50 doesn't look as abhorrent as this shit.

>>720313668
Don’t kid yourself, if they cut the whole “retro collection” gimmick they would’ve gone with a more standard look

>>720314073
>if they did something other than they did, they would have done something else
Bravo, anon.
I swear this must be a zoomie thing. Nobody who grew up before Y2K thinks of pixel art as aberrant.

>>720298708 (OP)
Was getting filtered pretty hard by the final boss of the demo until it clicked.

You should be digging a lot
