A Hat in Time Megathread

[KnightRider25]

[QUOTE=Rahu X;52762246]So, looking through the text strings for the dialog (which is easy as fuck to do btw), I came across this:

[B][U]SPOILERS, BTW[/U][/B]

[B][U]SPOILERS, BTW[/U][/B]

Seems to be for a cutscene end or post game. Maybe I missed something, or it's something in the world you can stumble on after beating the game, but I don't remember seeing this at all. Could even be potentially cut content?

Also yeah, the folder for Alpine Skyline is still named "sandandsails." If they somehow decide to bring it back as a level for the free updates, I do hope its folder is named "SANDANDSAILSFORREALTHISTIME"

[URL="https://pastebin.com/5ufFVV4H"]Speaking of Sand and Sails...[/URL][/QUOTE]

Seems that was a scrapped post-credits cutscene. Wished they kept it though.

On about the Sand and Sails, I recall reading one of the kickstarter updates that the idea of Sand n' Sails was going to be a Free Roam, like Alpine Skyline, but will have some survive elements. It would have been cool to see some of it playable though.

What I'm disappointed that there's no "Champion's Road" like what the Beta (Beta Hero
s Challenge) and Speedrunning Event had (for the Speedrunning Event, you had to use developer's console to access it, and it was a tough one).

[QUOTE=Mistermist;52762301]So, having browsed the Steam Guides and Discussions I stumbled upon two things. Since they haven't been posted here I thought I would share them.

[b]Spoilers, if you want to find this yourself.[/b]

First, we have the R. King AKA [sp]Roach King[/sp]. Through out Hat Kid's ship you can find letters written to her if you use the camera badge. These letters will lead you around the ship until, [sp]you reach the attic, where you'll find the last letter. From there if you use the Dweller Mask, and make the camera go inside the closet, you'll find a secret note written in some alien language.[/sp]
Here is the guide, if you want to find these letters: [url]http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1163147933[/url]

Finally, it seems we might have an ARG on our hands. I don't know if the R. King is connected to this but it is very interesting. There are a series of videos on this channel called Mole Man1111, and the videos are very cryptic. The descriptions for the videos have codes to be decrypted along with an alien language in the video. People on the Steam Discussion have already started work.

Awesome! I suck at ARG, but I love reading them. From what I've read, it seems [sp]to involve around the creators of the hourglass and their powers.[/sp].

Man, Moustache Girl had a prominent role in Subcon Forest at one point apparently.

Again, [B][U]SPOILERS[/U][/B]

[sp]There's also some lines that hint at her maybe being playable at some point, outside of the section towards the end obviously.[/sp]

Ah, dang. Did not see that. Still, they're pretty interesting videos. I can't wait to see more cut content you find.

Edit: Also going back to R. King: [sp]You can find a set of photos in the closet I mentioned earlier, and those photos feature some things from that ARG. [url]https://i.imgur.com/XvUqT2M_d.jpg?maxwidth=640&shape=thumb&fidelity=medium[/url] so it's at least in game.[/sp]

There's a high probability that's the New Game +, which [sp]playing as Mustache Girl does sound cool![/sp] But storywise [sp]It makes sense, she tried to go to Subcom Forest to get Timepieces but the Snatcher just kicks her out, which is why she's not everywhere causing trouble.[/sp]

Awww, ah well. Game really doesn't need to have a deep story anyways.

[Rahu X]

Well, I tried extracting the map file for the main part of Subcon Forest to see if I could find out if there were any voice lines recorded for those lines I posted earlier. Sadly, I've come up empty so far.

However, one particular thing I found out by just extracting that one map file is that it has A METRIC SHIT TON OF FOLDERS associated with it, most of it relating back to content that isn't even in Subcon Forest but previous levels. I assume this is just how map files in UE3 work, which seems kind of annoying, to be honest.

However, in that mess of folders, there was one named "HatInTime_Levels_Cafe", which points back to that whole post credits scene I brought up earlier.

I have to fuck off for now, so you won't be hearing much from me for a bit. I'll try to dig into the files when I get back home though. If anyone else wants to do the same, it's fairly easy to find the tools online via a Google search. I'm sure the modding tools will also make stuff like this a lot easier, as we'll have full access to the game's files.

I just finished it, got tears in my eyes. I love this game. Can't wait to buy it again for PS4. :joy:

So, is it possible to get the [sp]diary entries[/sp] for anything before 1-4? I don't think there's a way to unlock it before getting 7 time pieces.

There are [sp]diary entries as soon as you start the game[/sp] but getting there it's impossible unless you noclip to it with developer's console.

Ok, so I'm seeing a lot of love for this game, read/watched nothing about it and have to ask:

As someone who near religiously worshipped Super Mario Sunshine as the best game ever, how's Cute Hat Girl Simulator?

Sunshine is the most common comparison the game gets. So I think you're pretty much destined to enjoy it.

[Mellowbloom]

the [Sp]cafe scene[/Sp] was cut due to time (was basically half-dead due to lack of sleep while setting it up), will probably be cleaned up and finished for dlc #1 though

[Keychain]

I had no idea Xander Mobus voiced the Conductor! That's fucking great.

For those who don't know, Xander is the Smash 4 announcer as well as Joker in Persona 5.

I saw him in the credits, and wondered who he voiced. Also I’m glad to see the cafe scene will be coming, it sounds fantastic. In the mean while I think I’m going to start cataloging all the cut content I can find, and the alterations since the beta.

I kinda wish the credits were slightly altered so it showed which voice actors voiced who.

We're getting Steam Workshop this week.[/QUOTE]

[KnightRider25]

So I haven't explore everything yet but I have found enough Rift Tokens (Counting the Free Spin you get from Time Rifts) to get everything from the Slot Machine with the exception of 1 item. I also learned that the Map Badge that you get doesn't show all of them.

Dude I'm still discovering tokens I didn't even know existed. Infact, there's some areas from when I first started playing that I missed out on and completely forgot to re-visit later. Like that one island in that requires [sp]the Time Hat[/sp] to press all of the buttons before 7 seconds pass.

[KnightRider25]

[QUOTE=mattmanlex;52764291]There's not enough tokens to get everything[/QUOTE]

I'm aware, but I'm saying that you can get almost everything except one item with the current amount of tokens in the game, without resorting to the developer console.

I'm slightly disappointed that the [sp]Time Hat[/sp] doesn't have an alternate design in the Slot Machine.

Beat the game. Will go on to 100% it in the coming week if I find the time and then wait for some really good custom levels to come back to. Overall worth the $30, some minor nitpicks but would deffo give at least an 8/10

No clue if this is connected to the unARG, but some guy in a /v/ thread found a symbol conspicuously similar to the Aperture Science logo on a wall in Mafia Town. When you take a picture of it in camera mode, it flashes blue and disappears. Unfortunately, I don't actually own AHiT and I didn't save the webm he took showing it off, so maybe someone can help me there.
