Windswept
This Donkey Kong Country spiritual successor releases tomorrow. From playing the demo, I feel this is significantly better than anything retro studios has ever made. And its also better than anything nintendo has made in the last decade. Will you try it?

you first. your shitty game is nothing like donkey kong country. marsupilami hoobadventure and yooka laylee impossible lairs are the best ones available that could be said to be "spiritual successors"

I'm going to play it. Australians are quickly cornering the "old Nintendo platformer" market.

You know buddy throws were like 1% of the gameplay in the DKC franchise, right? And it wasn't even in the first game. On top of that, this looks MUCH worse visually. Sorry anon, you can't use the best 2D platformers as your comparison unless your shit is very, very good.

I played through the demo and did the challenge level. The main way they leverage the platforming mechanics is rolling off platforms to do a double jump and throws are mainly for reaching higher platforms. Roll chaining to speed up is also in, which is sorely lacking in retro shit. The game controls smooth as butter and feels heavenly to play. The webm is demonstrating little puzzler segments, like when you find a secret in DKC and get to do a little banana grabbing mini game, except here it's obviously a lot more fun. Finding secrets in general feels way more fun, so it feels like a union of the best bits of old and new Nintendo style design, with all the cool rare stuff included. It's measuring up to be top notch.

No. I have no interest in playing a puzzle game centered around the fucking team up mechanic of DKC2. That's fucking stupid.

this pixel"art" is really the lowest of lows. If they taught kids aseprite in middle school I'd expect all creations to look like, but you just know it's some guy in his 30 with receding hairline who did this. Drew his shitty turtle unshaded, made 3 frames of animations and thought "yep ! that's my MC". This gives me the ickiest of icks. If you want to be lazy about gamedev just go 3D

It's not my game and it had 1300 backers on kickstarter and the trailer had 72,000 views on youtube. I think it will do okay for a game with zero advertising.

What's the problem? Can't play a game that's not popular on twitch?

>Windswept is a love letter to a period of gaming where collectathon platformers reigned supreme, trying again was the norm, and players only had a game manual to guide them.
This isn't a collectathon. If you can't even describe your game properly it's only reasonable to assume it's shit.

Why, does the demo reveal all the trailers and screenshots are fake and the game actually plays like Banjo-Kazooie?

That's a hard mode level. The game has normal levels where you collect hidden coins and secrets, and you can use them to unlock challenge levels and minigames.
