        Pizza Tower takes a lot from Wario Land and quite a bit from 2D Sonic as well
        Antonblast is more pure Wario Land 4

        it did, but you can see after pizza tower came out they added a similar combo system and changed the movement a bit in response. just compare the kickstarter and dynamite demo which dropped before and after pizza tower respectively.

          Pizza Tower didnt have a combo system during most of its development either. Summit obviously played PT and found that the combo system is a fun idea. There are many games that use a combo system in the past as well

            But the combo system served a point in pizza tower for the ranks. They're meaningless in blast.

              We don't know how score will be used in the full game, there could be a point to keeping a combo that's just not present in the demo.

      Wario land 4 is partially a speedrun game and that's everyone's favorite. Anton is more Wario-like and less speedrun, compared to Pizza Tower. Or at least it was, seems like it's having a crisis of identity because of PT's success.

        It doesn't look like Wario 4 because it has a score system. Slowly Explorer is my favorite but they added it for SpeedRunner which ruined it.

      >If you don't let go of the dash button, you do a hammer jump automatically , even if you want to keep dashing.
      This isn't true. If you don't let go of the dash button you just stop. The hammer jump is entirely contextual, if you press it at any point in the air you do the jump, if you press it on the ground you dash. That's all there is to it. If you hold the button from a jump off a ledge it works the same as if you held it on the ground. If you want to keep the boost chain going you can just wait until you touch the ground and the combo won't reset as long as you hit it again right after.
      The boost system is basically ripped wholesale from CTR if you're familiar with that.

        Oh, I forgot to mention that if you want to keep a boost going without dashing again or doing the hammer just do a regular jump when you hit the ground. You maintain dash momentum and boost counter if you just bunny hop, but you don't get the added speed each manual boost gives you.

    I'm not a fan of how the bounce jump works. "Queuing" a bounce feels really weird, I'd rather it only happen if you hold the attack button when you hit the ground. I also think a horizontal burst option in the air would be nice, but the game's platforming isn't built around it so whatever.

      Well if you like classic Doom there's the Treasure Tech mod. It turns Doomguy into not-Wario and lets you tackle enemies, grab and throw them at each other, among other things. It's really fun and addictive.
      As of now there isn't a map pack made specifically for the mod, but the dev is working on one and there is a demo available.

      Also if you want more WL4 check out the Parallel World and Burning Nightmares romhacks. They're both very good, with the former being an entire new campaign and the latter a single long level which is a tribute to all Wario games.

      Reducing the HP was a good call, in the first demo you had so much you could face-tank everything and be fine. I miss the breakable checkpoints though, if I'm smashing through every checkpoint I see I'm clearly fine with starting a little further back.

        I thought they were toll booths, so breaking them giving you more score made sense. It was basically Shovel Knight's checkpoint system.
        They were a bit easy to break accidentally, but they could solve that by requiring you to use the new faceplant ground pound on them.

    It's pretty fun, Wario Land meets Crash filled to the brim with late 90s/early 2000s 'tude with beautifully put together sprite work and a great soundtrack to match.

    I'd my only issue is the health system and how obfuscated some stuff is. Anton is incredibly wild and fast but still has a small health pool which makes getting hit from something you couldn't have seen or something that very easily blended in the background annoying. With the state of the thread I do hate to compare it to Pizza Tower but PT being Wario + Sonic let them not punish you at all for getting hit and left it in scoring, which I think is great when you have such fast, wild, powerful yet difficult to manage characters. I'd like to see some stuff made more obvious, make the lava a brighter colour, reduce the number but increase the size of the nitro crates, and maybe give Anton more health but give players a penalty for being too reckless, maybe accidentally destroying a pathway to a hidden item or destroying a checkpoint, I don't know.

    • 2 weeks ago
      Anonymous

      >maybe accidentally destroying a pathway to a hidden item
      The demo actually does this a lot. For example in Boiler City if you immediately destroy the crates under the beam to the right of the entrance it locks you out of two secrets, one above the beam and one where you have to roll under it in ball form later. And then of course you've got stuff like the standard Crash box jumping puzzles in a couple areas.

      >destroying a checkpoint
      This used to be in the demo, I don't know why the latest update removed it.

      I agree with most of the rest of your post though. PT has kind of sparse looking levels but they were also very readable (with a couple of noticeable exceptions, looking at you Fast Food Saloon). Antonblast has so much going on sometimes that it's hard to see what's happening sometimes, especially when you're going fast and with the background-foreground stuff. I've gotten pretty used to it after a couple playthroughs though.

      • 2 weeks ago
        Anonymous

        It's nice that the secret thing is in the game, but I do wish it meant we had more health. I wouldn't mind how cluttered and busy the frame was if being reckless only resulted in missing out on secrets and items, not potential damage. Charging into something you could barely see or something you couldn't see at all that kills you is pretty unfun in an otherwise really fun game. I actually like how cluttered it is besides that, smashing through crates flying all over the screen is like Crash on crack. But yeah, Pizza Tower and Sonic both have similarly fast characters, but they're much more readable and in both games getting hit barely matters. It's a shame too when the CTR boost mechanic is so damn fun. It's still really fun, I just got a bit frustrated on the escape for the 2nd demo level and getting bounced around into off screen turret shots, nitro crates and barely legible lava. I understand I'm playing reckless, fast and aggressive in a level I don't know, but that feels like the point of the game and I think the punishment is a bit too strict. Way easier when I slowed down but became a bit less fun.

        big agree
        the lava especially, it's not impossible to see but the color it is right now might be the worst possible choice lol

        The lava is the worst part of the demo, even with complaints the game is a blast and so well made it's hard to imagine that these devs really thought 1 iota darker of a shade from the ground is a good lava colour, especially when at least on Switch the lava itself is barely visible, you only see like 4 pixels of it.

        • 2 weeks ago

          I will say that I think the game is mostly designed around not rushing as much, it's a little bit more of a standard platformer compared to speed-focused games like Pizza Tower or Sonic. Especially with the second level being as Crash 1 inspired as it is, I think the intended experience is to just focus on getting through first, and then going fast once you're more familiar with things. You can go pretty fast once you know the layout though.

          Cool. I hope they do a collab of some sort one day.

              There's no ranking system, and though you can do long combos like PT there are some stretches where the game doesn't give you anything to extend with so I don't think full combo-ing a level is really something you're going to have to worry about.
              The tradeoff is that the game itself is significantly harder, especially with the secrets and collectables, and ESPECIALLY that one FRICKING secret in Cinnamon Springs where you have to do multiple coyote time jumps at max speed one right after another.

      This game seems to be more precise with how you perform movements, since it has a CTR dash meter, and there's way more hazards. I guess with Pizza Tower, there's more time to react, movements feel more precise and Peppino can pretty much traverse more easily like running up and off walls, while here you have precise jumps and all that.

      It felt very long after Pizza Tower's charmingly short levels. Reminded me of some of Crash 4's exhaustingly long levels. I like games with smaller levels.

        The idea of the combo resulting in some sort of reward is good, but I don't believe it should extend the timer. Someone skilled enough to pull off a high level combo through the whole level is never gonna need more time to complete the escape sequence. It's just making the game easier for people who are already good at the game, when if anything, those people would probably appreciate an additional challenge more.

    It's sad because Warioland 4 is the worst out of the 4 Wariolands.

    designs looks like a bad copy of boogerman under tubmlr on steroid. It's "competent" but utterly forgettable.

    Also does anyone here get how this hammer spin move works in webm rel?
    At first I thought it was based on the CTR boost meter and you just had to time it for when the meter is right at the end but I've noticed it can happen even when the boost meter is half full
    The extra speed boost is cool but feels inconsistent because I don't know how it happens in the first place

      oh and to add, it has nothing to do with the enemies too as I've been able to do the spin randomly when there's no enemies nearby

        I think it's if you time the boost right as you're about to break something or kill an enemy as you're already charging forward

          You need to hammer dash right before making contact with an enemy.

          Yeah you're right, with testing it a bit I notice it only happens if you boost right before the multi-colored blocks and enemies but it doesn't work for the ordinary boxes

      the color palette makes it hard to see what is solid and what isn't. text everywhere for maximum clutter too.

    Antonblast demo was extremely fun, the second level was a bit confusing to navigate because I'm a dumbdumb. Will no doubt love it as much as I love Pizza Tower.

    I fricking love the shoulder bash as an attack in video games
    When you charge forward, hit the enemy and bounce off them
    Much more fun than swinging a sword imho
    I just came from the hollow knight thread and this sprang to mind for some reason
