[img]http://www.thatsyogarbage.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/I-Wanna-Be-The-Guy-Gaiden.png[/img] [quote=http://kayin.pyoko.org/iwbtg/] Here we go! I Wnna Be the Guy: Gaiden is ready for public consumption. Things might be a bit buggy at first, but a few revisions later and things should be all smoothed out. I'm sure you'll all live though. The bugginess is sometimes part of the charm for the IWBTG experience, right? So what is Gaiden? Gaiden is an episodic side story following The Lad in his search for The Kid/Guy. Why does The Lad seek The Kid? Who cares -- it's a 3 stage episodic bite of new IWBTG action. What about the future of Gaiden? Hard to say. Brave Earth is going to steal my attention until it's done, so don't expect more any time soon, but I surely will add more content at some point. How big will that content be? How many episodes will their be? Who cares, I'm playing it by ear. So what's working, what's not working and whatever? We have... *New stage based gameplay *3 Stages *Configurable Controls with Gamepad support *Trophies (also supported through Gamejolt) *Time Trial Leaderboards(Only through Gamejolt) *A new button! Z to jump, X to shoot and X to BIIIONIC AAAARM *Probably won't crash! What isn't done? *No fullscreen or resolution support. *Probably needs a lot of optimization *Probably has lots of bugs *People wanna be able to fuck with people like I fucked with Floe. I might be able to come up with a way to do that in the future. *Graphical options are basic. Sound options seem to be a little flighty. *Some interface/menu stuff is kinda groudy and needs modification. *Might still crash! (but unlike with MMF2, there is more I can do about it this time around.) So if you have any problems, bare with me.

I don't think I want to be the guy.
[QUOTE=GhostG45;36797037]I don't think I want to be the guy.[/QUOTE] You want to be the guy.

[QUOTE=Hakita;36797108]But you can't be the guy.[/QUOTE] I still haven't beat the first one, got to Mike Tyson, beat him, then i fell to my death in the next screen.

[QUOTE=Chirno;36799869]DansGame[/QUOTE] Salt Also, I'm on the third level right now and the atmosphere in the boss fight is just incredible. I really miss these kinds of bosses nowadays where the music made you feel like a badass rather than just make the boss look big and bad.
Played through this first episode within a few hours, died a little under 300 times. Not bad at all :v: I feel Gaiden, (or at least THIS episode) is easier than the original IWBTG. Definitely a hell of a lot more engaging and fun with the bionic arm mechanic. More combat too, I really really like that
I don't like these kinds of games because the difficulty comes from not being able to tell what happens. I like games where the difficulty comes from gameplay that's legitimately challenging and makes me try my hardest to pass the tests, not games where I die because I'm jumping across some clouds and then one of them decides to go down as soon as I touch it, instead of doing what all of the other clouds do (referencing IWBTG here). That's also why I don't like Cat Mario, it just does whatever it wants and there's no way for you to beat it without memorizing what everything does.

I'm not masochistic enough to play this kinda game.

Well, fuck. I got to [sp]Bald Bull[/sp] and now my game keeps crashing on the title screen.
[QUOTE=Luafox;36807505]but then you get a bowtie[/QUOTE] It looks so darn cute. Also they should have done that here as a nice little reference to the easy mode in Ninja Gaiden: Black.
I am at bald bull. Suddenly, "What a terrible night to have a curse!". The screen is red and instead I fight Mr. Sandman, who has the same moves but is way faster. What.
