Cotton and Kawase-chan's new game just had the demo put on the e-shop leading up to the Japanese release the 25th. A lot of new mechanics and old ones are returning for this one and the lay out is entirely different. I only know it's exploration focused and that it has a quest structure. The demo is currently downloading for me.

You're welcome. The demo is short but really has a lot of potential. A lot of the series core mechanics are fleshed out, the bosses are actually fun to fight now!

Not wild about the art style going more generic cutesy fantasy, than the surreal Japanese feel of the earlier games, but more Umihara Kawase is always good.

No we are not because the dev's were stupid enough to let those cancerous assholes Nicalis publish it in the west.
Originally it was planned to release worldwide on the same day, just the west would be digital only since the devs would self-publish (which is why the game is already fully translated), but now that Nicalis is in the picture they delayed the western release just so they wouldn't separate the digital and physical release/bleed extra money from the devs to line their pockets.
There is no reason not to just import it.
d61f8a No.16297827

No, Nicalis is publishing it in the West some months later. I'm just gonna import a copy because it is unknown whether or not leader boards will be shared.

The physics are a fantastic improvement over Sayonara. The lay out of the world is really enjoyable and the cooking/recipe system fleshed out combat in a way the earlier games neglected. The quests are fun and cute, the music is good although it seems quite a bit is reused from Sayonara. A new Cotton seems very unlikely but maybe her games will get released in a collection or something, that would be great.

I agree. Funnily enough, the first game probably had the cleanest art style until this one. The only problem is that they shied away from the detail that the sprites in the first game had.

They fucked over the La-Mulana devs
They fucked over the Yatagarasu
They had a hand in 90's arcade racer becoming vaporware
They've left countless of 3DS eshop games broken in europe refusing to patch them unless nintendo forces them like what happened with VVVVVV
They completely fucked over blade strangers' release; they forced the devs to show off the game 2 months before the game was ready to be shown in public so they could get easy e3 advertising, they got the devs to rush the game out and dumb down the controls to get the smash audience and they never gave the devs extra resources so the essential abandoned the game
They also pretend that they're the creators of Cave Story since they bought the IP.
They've done a ton of other sketchy shit, they're basically NISA of indie games.

blade strangers was always a simplistic game, that was the point, an entry level fighter. They also don't pretend to be the creators of cave story. You don't need to lie in your e-battle against a video game publisher.

Nigger almost every time of they refer to the cave story in all their PR shit it's always "Nicalis' Cave Story+" or shit like "from the people that brought you Cave Story+", hell on Blade Strangers page right now it says "Nicalis games (like Cave Story+)" when talking about the characters the shoved in.

I am a coward afraid of fucking my shit up fam. Sticking a paperclip into my switch to short circuit it only to install sketchy cfw only to risk of banning if accidentally going online make the whole endeavor not worth the effort in my mind atm. I do plan on eventually jailbreaking but only after the dust settles and maybe the introduce a cheaper replacement model if for whatever reason I happen to brick the system while being tech illiterate nincompoop.

The all games in the series have awkward physics and controls. It's wonky controls is oddly sorta the charm because its a bit of skill to master. Speedrunners might make the games look easy but even the ordinal has the odd controls and physics. Being that it's popular in Japan and not the west, changing the formula now to make it more friendly for a casual audience probably wouldn't go over well. Each stage is scored on a timer so apart of getting good is learning how to exploit the bungee cord/fishing rod systems to move fast.

Yeah it's not meant to be a casual platformer like mario or shantae. Simple movement isn't supposed to feel snappy and slick, it's about learning how to swing, all the techniques, learning routes, comparing times. You'll see an eel that just conveniently prevents a straight jump, but you have a small slope you can jump on to get a boost to get there before he does, there's also a block above him you can use to fling yourself over him but only if you have that running momentum, eventually you start looking at the entire game world this way and you are piecing together routes and avoiding vines and ladders in favor of rocket jumps and pendulum swings. That's where the real satisfaction comes from, and no other game gets remotely close.
