Actually you know what, just for you anon. Here's the result.
> there is no secret interaction
Imagine putting all effort into random moronic little things but not in this
Fricking sad
My friend got it on his own volition due to the hype and wanted me to watch him play
God, normalgays without inner dialogue are so insufferable to watch.
>accidentally opened one of the heads but didn't figure out why and didn't draw any connections between flute statue and them.
>didn't figure out difference between columns and platforms and constantly tried to jump on them (super fun in the ice biome)
>didn't figure out that you can infinite jump with bwand
>has ZERO feeling of rhythm, died 5 times on the disk switch and bunnyhead puzzles
>spent solid 15 minutes bashing his head against the wall in a room with the collateral moving blocks in dog biome because he didn't have a sling
>forgot about about egg room, didn't get the flute despite figuring out that you need eggs to unlock the doors
>didn't draw the connection between wines being able to stop your bubbles and disk, is probably still wondering why "disk sometimes falls randomly"
>spent 15 minutes in the triple-sine room just mashing levers
>ignores 90% of the hidden passages, it's a miracle if he actually notices even the most obvious ones
How these people even manage to perform day-to-day tasks and not die is a mystery to me.
He's probably going to spoil the whole thing later either way.
>spent 15 minutes in the triple-sine room just mashing levers
I mean, what else are you supposed to do, figure out the formula for the graph?
You're a misanthrope and a bad friend and he probably isn't guilty of half of the rottenhearted things you assume about him.
I have myself a less intelligent friend but don't shittalk him in my head constantly.
>t. moronic friend
You press the button.
thank you
The first 64 eggs are pretty easy, it's the 64 after those that are impossible to find.
Stumped how to get in here.
Manticore lasers.
but she is dead
You'll just have to hatch another one.
who do I have to frick for that
the peawiener
i just realized the manticore destroyed one glass part for me on before the i got the first ending. No wonder the second fight was easier
tunic
>he doesn't know
Anyone know how to get to this chest?
it's advanced post-post-post-game stuff, not an egg, that's all I know
As long as you have the flute and access to an external tool you can solve this without leaving the room. No special light required. But turning off scanlines for a bit may help.
It's just abark code
so is there any use for shaking the game window? it makes vines and stuff sway back and forth. i think you could potentially use it to get up the central well via the one opening that's covered with vines
Vines are just a visual, the hitbox won't move.
Vines have a separate hitbox from their physics model
which opening? the right one on 2nd screen? You already can do it with bubble hover but it is pointless
I used this method to see the arrows for that one rabbit flute song that's covered by the vines
what are some other secret-kino games like this? so far i know about
-environment station alpha
-la mulana (love this game)
-outer wilds?
-fez
Haydee, unironically.
Just sue mods to replace main character to something more tasteful.
Gameplay is fire so is the atmosphere
Tunic.
>secret
shut the frick up
whatever
It's a fairly sparse genre. Outer Wilds doesn't really fit that bill honestly, it's more narrative driven and mysteries are more deductive in nature than purely logical. Void Stranger is a better fit.
The witness only because once you have the realization there is a whole second layer around you, it is a cool feeling
Void Stranger
Baba is You
seconding Tunic. if you hold A in the game you literally turn into the Tunic fox
if you press up four times you turn into the Fez character, too, so I guess those were the two biggest inspirations
also try:
Knytt Underground
Tres-Bashers
Elephantasy
Please play Riven. It has an incredibly well developed, believable world and puzzles that ask you to understand that world and its current state. Playing Myst first is not mandatory, but it's such a landmark game that anyone with a real interest in games should play it anyway.
i've beaten it anon but thanks. it's one of the best for sure
Marrow if you hate yourself.
Rain world is the only game i would generally call a perfecf game. It does literally everything correct
I'm stuck at the drainage and I'm drowning and I'm sad.
The second and third layer are extremely Void Stranger-esque
It's unreal how far La-Mulana 1 & 2 stand above its contemporaries.
Whatever gripes you may have with its riddles, no metrodvania comes close to its size and complexity. I haven't even beaten either of them yet I still love them to death.
I really hope the Maze of Galious remake they were supposed to do actually comes out and is just La-Mulana 3...
Hollow Knight is universally accepted to be the best one
This dude nearly gave me a heart attack.
Same. The Wiener Dog horfified me though. Scarier than the final area monkeys and the boss.
I love shield dogs so much
They're so funny
Did somebody draw art of them already
I likehow they get mad and make funny sounds if you yoyo them
I was stumped on this for a while,
actually it was super easy, I was just dumb
same
I saw the switch but thought it was there so you can get out
>Animal Well is wo-
>posting the edit
I started noticing lamppost-looking things with the map stamps on them and a number of squares ranging from 1-4. has the Fire-4 lamppost next to the radio tower. Do these have a known use?
yes
what is it?
Yeah. Mark on the map. Then maybe look at them real hard until you find their use.
On the other side of the door you dummy. It's right there. Doh.
Yeah. Couple of things. Another egg
But seriously true ending and even more puzzles.
what does this symbol mean behind me on the wall? i've spotted a few of them around the map but can't figure it out
What does it look like?
oh it's that simple? just means an egg is in that room?
Maybe not in that room, but nearby.
this was fricking annoying
oh great im actually missing something
where d I find the other one
Care for a drink?
How do you even get this guy to come out? I got all the way to the second credits and he's still in his hole. I imagine there's a tune to play, but where is it?
Bet you thought it was a bear huh?
It's not
It's a groundhog.
No tune. He'll only come out on his special day.
i have like 10 more eggs to go, kind of getting bored of looking for them now. is there anything cool for getting them all?
I'm guessing this is the number of times I have died?
So I need to die more to reach the upper chest?
Or do some sick 360noscope stuff with bubbles, yeah.
The chest is not very important either way, just go back later.
The bottom chest is a no-death bragging rights thingy.
Ooohhhhhhh so that's what that fricking bottom chest is. If it's any consolation to you i reached that upper chest no problem when i first visited the room. Bottom one was driving me nuts.
When should I light candles? I only have a couple of matches and dont want to waste them so i've been walking past most of the
i dont think it matters, if you want you can use the first ones in dark rooms just to have some easier vision. just mark their locations for later
There are as many candles as there are matches, and you have to light them all
kind of suspected it was something like this, thanks for confirming.
I keep seeing people talk about "wasting" matches but they only have the one use and it's not like some candle rooms are more important than others. Just use them whenever you can and mark the candles you find without matches to revisit later.
light them all, trust me
some gay said there is a secret if I do this cancer with bubbles only
there is none
frick you
you have to do it closer to the water the whole time
I did
I did it too, figured that maybe since I was in layer 4 that it stopped it.
Good to know it was just a lark.
There is a room above on the way there
If you have already done that then yeah there is nothing else.
Bear the block? I cant get to it too high
You don't have to enter it with the use of the block
In the middle of the lake where the swordfish fricks up your bubbles
there is literally nothing on the map
frick this dev
Please let us know your reaction when you check out the room lmao
That's just for speedrunning
I can get up to the last bit and I can hover with bubbles but there is no way I can do the disc spin trick NOT from flat ground
>but there is no way I can do the disc spin trick NOT from flat ground
Git Gud
You just autismo it out
nevermind it was easy, just 3 tries
>jump toss land on disc
>hit wall and bounce back
>jump toss land on disc again
ur too late to the party
what did the bunny give me? I heard some sound but unclear what it is
hahahahahahAHAHAHAAHAHAH
There are 16 of them
16 of what
Bunnies
He gave you nothing yet. He's just hopping along on his island in the sky, pointing his ears this and that way.
I figured out what to do on my first visit there.
why are the steps like that? remind you of something?
no?
what coloring anon this shit is monochrome you dense blind moron
oh, come back later when you get more items
What? No it has nothing to do with more items.
don't you just throw the slinky down the stairs and it presses a switch and the block raises?
are you guize talking about post-post game or something?
No.
In fact that block doesn't raise at all
I have... brain rot?
I'm sure I did it like two days ago, huh.
No that's what I did with the slink and the block did raise.
The fricking "goose" near the flames you JUST ASKED ABOUT YOU FILTHY FRICKING NEANDERTHAL
Yeah I know, but the other gay keeps telling me it is not the goose
The only other big birds I recall are ostrich (dead) and heron but they dont have beaks like that
The bird that is one screen to the right of the flame holding pillars is a duck, AKA mallard. Not a goose.
How the frick did you get over there without aggroing the swordfish
Luigi flying on an frisbee over the sea
ok I'm done for today
I have no idea what the frick is going on anymore
Noticed another unmarked bit of toppable ground that formed an interesting connection.
up down up down
left right left right
do I play this to the goose near the flames?
>goose
It has colorings of a mallard
That's a duck or is it?
Nope
I've released the manticroe whatever that means and watched the credits roll, then took a stopwatch from the squirrel whatever that does.. I'm not really feeling a desire to go keep collecting more eggs or do whatever else there is to do. I am missing two items in the usable items slots which makes me a bit curious so maybe I'll continue again one day. From what I've seen in these threads, after getting all the eggs the next step is to get all the rabbits, I already have one, and then something about secrets. But are these secrets really fun to find or is it just dicking around exhausting every possiblity blindly in each room until something happens? I'm not trying to sound cynical I just want to know what I'm in for if I keep playing.
stopwatch is on the settings menu. same with the pedo-meter if you found it.
The rabbits themselves are pretty secret, a few of them you can get alone, but there are a couple in the "wtf is this bullshit" category.
After that then it's fully madman stuff. But being fair, it's not meant to be done solo. One of the rabbit literally requires you to compare your game with others.
Eggs are nice to do solo though. if you want some guidance, I bet you haven't freed the cats in cages
Huh.
Well I can tell you, you don't need to do that.
The code is right, but you don't have to play it there.
Note the symbols above the arrows. There ought to be some lines.
>do the thing the wall says to do
>nothing happens
huh?
is there a confirmation i did the thing correctly and i just missed it or what?
You see the little blocks with the symbols above the notes? Go find somewhere else in the area where you see those matching symbols.
I gave up trying to do these when I saw them because I'm using a Pro Controller lol. Impossible whether you're using the d-pad or the stick. You can't roll in rain world with the fricking pro controller either. What is actually the best controller?
>Impossible whether you're using the d-pad or the stick.
you're in no rush and they're easier on stick since they snap to the 8 directions.
When you go in flute mode you have to aim before pressing the action button, you can do it with any shitty dpad or stick. Just take your time, I input the 64 note long code with regular joycon no problem.
:3
you got the b. wand?
Okay, what do I do with this shit?
I get that I need to find the bunnies and decode the signals they do with their ears, but what do the numbers mean? They go 0-15 so they can't be flute notes
The order of the bunnies you need to follow when traveling from the flag noted on the same board.
You mean this flag?
I don't get it, where do I get directions
>I don't get it, where do I get directions
The bunnies hop and then their ears will point a set of directions and then they will point an another set of directions. One set denotes the order, the other the actual directions.
Damn, I didn't notice they signaled twice, it's kinda hard to see.
I get that. Even with the lantern it's a b***h to see them.
Forgot my pic
w-wait what did they mean by "released" the manticore...
It's in a better place now 🙂
The ears are a code. You need every bunny, then you need to break the code. It's kinda autismal
what does the code give?
Wings
You move screens, starting from the window at the bunny island
There is no passage there.
Elaborate, what wings
so you were a crab all along?
there's a giant bunny that turns you into that (technically a moth), so we don't know for sure
>You need every bunny, then you need to break the code
I'm asking what to do with the code
Do I have what is required to kill this shitter?
no
how do I open the passage here?
Nothing to open there.
Is there a maximum for how many bonus hearts you can have? I'm doing a no hit run and I'm planning on running around collecting fruit before the final area so I can zero effort it.
I think it's 4
Of each
You are getting those yellow hearts, right?
I'm planning on eating all the fruit at once to see if anything interesting happens if you get them all so I haven't gotten any yet other than 1 blue one I accidentally got before a reload. I've also been clearing out all the spikes. There's only 1 left behind the fricking glass in the penguin area.
What's the last code I dont have wits t search for it, I'm kinda done with the game and dont want to waste any more time on it
look for a kangaroo then throw a toy at him
Just got the blacklight.
I didn't expect there to be so much shit in this game.
I'd have liked to have gotten it before I had 61 eggs.
I wish there was more stuff in layers 1 and 2. I'm not smart enough for layer 3/4 puzzles but I enjoy combing the map for easily-overlooked nooks and crannies.
Why is this code wrong or the last cat?
huh
Your dumb ass isn't inputting it top to down rather than left to right, is it?
Instead of just one room and a few spots across the game, I wish there was a whole region for each new item, half teaching you how to use it, and half using it in combination with all the others.
What is the current state of the post post post game puzzle shit
Bruteforced. Two unicode strings still not found, but the code broken. Yields 3 audio files, one from the dev, one from a friend of his, and one from dunkey
i thought there was more after that though
Like what? There is the hp groundhog day thingy, but I don't know anything else, apparently the unreached room is just not meant to be reached and has an easter egg calling you a cheater if you do.
I thought there was some layered second universe shit about dug out dirt or something
I'm jsut sad its over if thats all ;_;
There probably is more that we just haven't found yet
No, they found them all
The remaining two were using groundhog health to facetank the iguana and munching 100 fruit without taking any damage
the game's biggest puzzles have been brute-forced and solved, all that's left is finding how many unicodes exactly are in the game, and this
I think? I need to figure out what that room is for sure
Symbols were already solved anon
and it forms a map to a time capsule from left of bunny space temple when you insert them all into the poster in the house
it's crazy how the dev was expecting people to take years to find all this shit, I kinda feel bad for him
his next game is gonna be even more cryptic and obscure to spite everyone and actually preserve the secrets
>he think these are all the secrets
Not everything can be Noita or Fez.
what's with this room
why is there bunny head locked?
Look closer, the ghost bunny head is flipping the switch.
doomed to eternal hell bouncing back and forth
Saw someone say you need a printer for one super secret puzzle? What's that all about?
You don't, but it's a neat thingy.
It prints instructions to make an origami rabbit
It's not meant to be done on every computer. Deal with it nerd.
Nothing
Now you get the rest of the stuff. Doh.
How do you get the game to print that? Sounds fun
What stuff? My map looks fully explored except this weird piece
Bat room?
You can't map squares behind the big stalactites. Drop them.
He likely did already, that one pixel of map can't be filled in.
> dude jus switch your date LMAO
fricking moronic indie devs dont know there is a lot of work-related shit on my PC that will get broken if date changes drastically
of course shitters like the dont care they are frickign neets, all they have on their shittyt PC is discord and bunch of download torrents
frickign c**ts
extra health doesn't really matter anon
>will get broken
Just don't launch those programs then while the date is changed, genius.
they are being ran as services you moron
Why are you playing games on it then?
I just got the wheel, freed all cats and turned goose into bunny.
Now what? I still havent found 2 s-medals
>goose
Duck
?
When you get the remote and then the inventory expands another fricking row
mama fricking mia
Haven't read or watched pretty much anything on this game including these threads but just needed to get this out. This game is damn good.
Should I return the disc? The other one in the dog srine up top
No. The frisbee is the second-most useful item.
I'm asking if it activates any of the secrets
It does not as far as we're aware.
So how many steps it wants
I assume it is not fixed number but ending on some
100000
And make sure you're IN the pedometer when it hits zero, you only have 100 steps to reach the glitch chest
Elaborate. Do you continue 100 more steps after getting pedometer?
you missed it, you'll need to get to 100,000 again
wait I thought you found all eggs, go look for your fricking eggs homosexual
Nah, I'm not gonna waste 10 more hrs on this
you literally just finished the tutorial
the ARGs for this game are crazy
i was eating an avocado earlier and the little dude from the game was just hanging out inside it
what tools do i need for this bullshit?
or do i need some sort of knowledge?
i know lanterns can nullify these mouse ghosts via a previous puzzle
i do get a lantern later as a tool?
Yes
How do I break this shit?
start a new save
does it count actual deaths or drops in water counts too?
Only actual deaths.
still how no idea
It's way simpler than you'd think and I assure you if you're there, you are capable of solving it without leaving the area.
I know I need to make it walk the other way but I dot have tools that can do it and there is no holes for yoyo
Scare it.
with what?
Something that makes loud noises and usually scares animals IRL. Make sure it's awake first.
there is no hope for this new generation of gamers,
their mind is fried from tik-tok and seed oils
YOUR wiener
not funny
YOU FRICKING DUMBASS ANON *THINK*
Is the gigantic portrait a puzzle?
Any good guides on eggs? I have 13 left and I aslo have a job and not longer a NEET like majority of this thread so I can't afford rewalking the whole map again
frick off wagie
techraptor has a good guide where you can check just the location of the ones you missed and then try to figure it out from there
>running out of space on the map that needs to be explored
>basically have to look at it with a magnifying glass
>didn't get a single flame
>couple of bunnies, maybe 20 eggs
god damn it.
i have a couple of stuff left to do bring the mock disk at the corresponding shrine and collect some extra k-shards to put in the receptacles
but i'm not sure if those are flame-related or what
buy an ad
you do realize that all this negativity is going to destroy you.
how long can you last without being loved?
buy animal well, available on the playstation, nintendo switch, and steam
you will like it, it's supposed to be like Halo 2 meets Halo 3
uh, did I frick myself here?
Nah, you can come back later with a new tool.
softlocked
Presented without context, but if you know you know. That shit was fricking hilarious. What is this, Far Cry?
I have a problem. I visited every match location and I have an open chest everywhere there. But I'm missing 1 match
Did you get the one in the starting area?
The one most people miss is right in the starting area.
There's a trick where if you throw the disc forward while moving at full speed, AND are at the full height of your jump, you will land on it without needing a bounce. Lots of people get stumped here. It's not something you have to do anywhere else in the game.
it's out
what do I do with the skeleton fish?
Play the song of his people.
which is?
where i'm supposed to find it?
He's screaming it at you and you're not even listening to him. No wonder the bone fish hates you.
Any plans to release a level editor?
playing tunic because of these threads and the combat does not fricking work, soiled my entire experience
is this bugged too?
Yup, that space is right behind the fish pipe so it's unable to be filled in
Need help with the spike room above the swordfish area
I am almost certainly making this harder than it needs to be but I can make it to the second level but the wheel gets stuck on the third.
Oh also, the way you're doing it works but I think it might be harder.
I saw a guy doing it that way. He said that he made it by exiting and quickly re-entering the wheel.
I'm confused. Based on the thing I found the song should be Up, Down, Up, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right.
But it's not working. Am I supposed to play it somewhere else?
Geez, I wonder what that mural depicts. Is it a bunny? Or a duck?
wtf
barry basso you motherfricker
Is this game like Rain World? Is this the first Rain World like?
It's nothing like Rain World. I don't even understand why people bring up Rain World when they see it.
>Small creature player character
>Big, atmospheric, pixelated world
>Animals
The similarities end there
>63/64 eggs
>know where the last one is
>can't find the last button for it
wienersucking motherfricker
What room is it?
You're way too early for that one.
The one east of the eel that you get to by wrapping around the map from above.
I don't want it given to me, just tell whether or not it's a teleport or portal or something. I haven't explored the final area yet and if I'll find it later, I can stop banging my head against it.
>I haven't explored the final area yet
You only need some tools to get them.
Am I missing something here? I have the slinky and the frisbee
Easy, just don't get hit.
but the first one is bobbing up and down
I'm literally stuck in this area HELP HEEEELPPP
Just walk away, anon.
the area is in a pit, you literally cant leave
The area with the bouncy heads? You can leave it.
oh yeah nvm theres a switch in the room before
come back later. like, way later.
or try to evade it, good luck
I assure you you will instantly know how to get through that room once you can get through that room unless you want to try precision platforming through that nonsense.
seriously no more ideas on where to go for this medal. any hints? I feel like I'm everything except the shit that shouldn't be hard to find, like it took me ages to find the b wand upgrade cause I never saw that room entrance
Go light those candles you've been neglecting.
How many matches have you found?
frick me, there's literally only 1 match and 1 candle left and i literally just cannot find them, and I even found the most hidden match guarded by one of those shield dudes
keep saying it
I keep seeing morons post this, what the frick does it mean
keep saying it
dunc is a cuck who lets other people frick his wife
Shit like this is why CA had to say his game had nothing to do with Chuckle Fish
Really
really?
fricking indie devs and their most moronic ideas
not the intended solution
oh my fricking god I have to now teleport and restart it
ffs
frickign garbage peope
if I remember correctly there is an exit to your right, you have to break the wall
do you fricking need yellow paint everywhere you go anon?
geez, you picked the wrong game, just drop it already
there is no exit, not even on the map, I tried everything in there
You got in there without the tools you needed, that's what happened.
oh you don't have the spin top thing,
you went out of sequence,
suffer the consequences,
also you don't have to reset, use the flute to teleport,
literally 30 minutes in you learn the melody to teleport
scratch that,
you can't go in there without the wheel,
and to get the wheel, you need to have the spin top, so you already have it
I'm sorry for your moronation, life must be tough man..
He could have gotten to the cat room backwards from the icy area.
no
to get the wheel, you need the kangaroo code, which needs the spin top
anon is just lying or a complete moron
You don't need the top to get any of the cat songs.
unless you brute force it, you need the code under the kangaroo statue,
I know because I was stuck there for a while hunting down the last code
I just ran back through and yea, I forgot about that one. So yea, you'd need the top to get in there.
??????????????
I really like how you can do a lot of these things in different ways. Using the frisbee like that didn't cross my mind.
52/64 eggs without a guide. My will to keep going is waning
Ignore the speedrun clock(just for cosmetics), pay attention to the map and background, use your new items
Meant for
I'm exactly there, I've combed every crevice and corner and can't find the fricking last match
What new items? I got several items from the house but they don't show up in the inventory.
Did you not receive a lantern?
huh, clearly there's a passage this way, but why can't you break this wall like you can literally every other? none of my tools work.
forgot fricking pic
Maybe that pedestal behind you has something to do with it.
Inassumed that's for the glass walls
The Bubble Wand being the very first item I encountered and then mastering it in two rooms really was optimal wasn't it? I just watched Aliensrock get the frisbee then yoyo and struggle with puzzles I breezed past.
Yea. It was the first one I got too and I quickly learned how to jump with it. I even went though the area you're supposed to come back to with the upgraded wand that leads to a bunny on my first trip through before I even knew about them.
It's by far the most convenient tool to start with.
Even though it was the Bubble Wand I got first I wish it was the stamp. Stamp>Bubble>Frisbee truly is optimal I'm convinced of it
While I see the value of getting the bubble wand first. I think yoyo first is underrated. You can use it to cheese some puzzles and you never have to worry about stalagtites/mites again. And the bubble wand only really helps you skip like 1 puzzle on the way to it.
>stalagmites
Good point
all right, I give up. where tf is the center candle
Don't even need bubbles for it
so what the frick is even the plot
Cats are buttholes
no plot, you just waste hundreds of hours trying to find imaginary rabbits in a video game instead of learning a new programming language or a skill, or doing any other activity that would benefit you and others 🙂
>anon says as he posts here, an activity that benefits no one
>on a board about games, another activity that benefits no one
And yet he can take solace in that at least he hasn't sunk so low as to spend his limited time on earth not liking things on an imageboard
Where do I play the egg song ?
I'm pretty sure I transcribed everything right but it's not doing anything
you play it right there,
hint:
if you think a note is off, it might be, check the eggs again. closely
I already accounted for that, I think I may be playing it too softly or something
I'm 100% sure my notes are right, I just checked with a guide just in case I fricked anything up
just ended up using my keyboard and got it
god, those keyboard bindings are fricking terrible,
like sure, cramp all keys near WASD so we can play with one hand!
do all those bubble jumps with your left hand only and with your right hand, scroll tik-tok on your phone or something. Genius!!
Use Autohotkey
forever switched to Linux a year ago,
to lazy to figure alternatives, I'm sure there are,
I just used controller on this one
autohotkey is goat, used it in some games in the past
I did it. I saw credits. I beat the game. I'm the greatest.
nice, tutorial over,
go find all the eggs now
good job beating the tutorial
now the real game begins
I had to check about the egg song too. How the frick was I supposed to know what the blank eggs notes were?
if it's not 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 or 6 or 7
then it must be 8
True.
But that's not what the cypher shows, it only denotes three numbers and I figured out the other notes from that quickly.
ok, it requires the player to be familiar with binary numbers, but it kinda teaches you what the concept is. so good job for working it out
>finally found the final candle (penguin room)
>missing a match
please man I can't do this anymore, I've been fricking everywhere 10 times over.
Do we have outer space map?
idk man.
scouring the map for a random nook that has a code written on its wall for arbitrary reasons and then go back and play that song isn't a puzzle to me, it's just geocaching
what is the difference between this and the clock in normal word? I know I'm way late but that is not what question is about
spoiler tags, moron
spoiler thread by definition moron
Just more figures and a wingding for the "map"
how deep does this game go? I think I'm not gonna bother with the rest after the second credits tbh, it's too tedious and I'd just rather watch a video on it
depends if you consider glyph hunting deep. I personally think it's just a cheap way of designing """puzzles"""
not talking about that kind of depth, I mean how much content is hidden in it
I feel like this is closest to Environmental Station Alpha and I also dropped that game because the secret hunting got tedious and very much community focused at one point
that's the hidden content though.
if you're asking how much of the game's total content is confined to layer 3 I would say maybe 2% since 95% of your time will just be spent autisrically running around which isn't content
alright yeah I'll watch a video then, ty
So I see manticore hatchnjg but what are these nearby?
Those little c**ts that copy your movement in the last area I assume.
they look nothing alike
They look pretty close to me for a scribble on a wall.
Eggs
So I got
> all eggs
> all items (which are possible to get on 1st playthrough)
> all bunnies
Now what next? Decode bunny code? I assume it is already done, can I just look it up and do something or is it already ARG territory and nothing left in game?
Yea all that's left is to get the directions from the bunnies to the special bunny place and then getting the wingdings to fill out the poster in the room for the directions to the super special place.

good game but I don't think I have enough of a puzzle brain to get much more out of it
I've just finished (?) the game, yet I'm seeing a lot of shit in this thread that I didn't find in my playthrough.
Is this one of those games with insane "post-game" secret hunting like Environmental Station Alpha and Void Stranger? What should I do now that I've seen the credits?
This makes no sense to me what I'm supposed to do?
So that place needs you to hit a switch or use the remote to open the wall but there isn't one in that room so you need to go to another room and hit a switch or use the remote to open it. Problem is that it closes the first wall so you can't get in.
Any time you fall into water the game puts you back to the last solid ground you were on. So what you are doing here is starting in that little area and making your way to a room where you can use the remote to switch open the wall and then making your way to some water to fall into so it puts you back in that little room with the wall now open.
Frickign moron just tell me what to do not HOW to do it, I will figure the rest
>has a route
>wut do
you gonna hand us the controller next? it's called THE FLOOR IS LAVA
Well anon, what tool can you use to not touch the floor but be able to travel around?
Also the top is much better to use to keep the dogs busy than the frisbee.
I fricking hate that fricking wall right next to the screen transition. Easily the worst part.
>voluntarily doing the bunnies
baka, you deserve to suffer
I already did them except the dream one it wont appear
Just keep waiting. It feels like it takes 5+ mins
I saw this idiotic nonsense in the guide and thought frick no, I'm not doing this IWBTG shit
you won't as a level 1 pleb

I'm not doing it because I don't respect it.
the upgraded bubble wand, and it's easier than it seems
Guys, I'm down to 5 missing eggs, and 1 missing match. I already "beat" the game. By that, I mean technically the credits rolled. But I know that's not the real ending. I'm not sure where to look for the missing stuff. And I'm not looking for advice. I just need to vent, because I'm almost 16 hours in, and I'm losing hope for progress.
I swear that if I can just find the one missing match, then everything else will be easy. I just need to find 1 more match. JUST one! How hard can it be?!
hm, didn't have any issues finding the matches,
I just naturally found them by playing and not hunting for them
pay attention to walls/ceilings, any shadows hiding some possible entrances?
Down to 4 missing eggs.
It doesn't feel like they're supposed to be super hidden. That's the extra frustrating part. Failing to find something that's probably only hidden behind a minor puzzle. I think I neglected the top, so I'm going to revisit old areas and try to break/clip into whatever scenery I might have missed on a first pass.
see
Down to 3 missing eggs. Still no match.
I was stuck getting the last match too. I don't think the top is required for any of them.
Holy frick. I found the final match. it was the first one I should have found at the very start of the game. God dammit, this is one of my most obvlivious moments ever. Just added 4 hours of play time because I overlooked a fricking tutorial item.
kek I missed the same one. It seems weirdly easy to miss especially that early
Finally got the "explore everything again" item. Wish I got it 5 hours ago before I explored everything thrice over.
Just finished the normal ending, I liked the Maticore "fight", it scared the frick out of me when it appeared the first time, but it was way too easy when compared to the dog.
But I felt it was super underwhelming, you just press a button and GG.
It's cool that they show right away that there is more to the game, but credits should be emotional, and I felt nothing.

Is the disc ghost not a cat? It's literally meowing
Why would a cat haunt an area filled with dogs and only come after you when a frisbee, an item dogs love to play with, is taken from the dog shrine?
it's DtC
Down to wiener? Just like a dog to be down to frick things.
Dog to Cat
CatDog? A canine feline little CatDog?
Cat, formerly Dog
They cut em in half?! So cruel.
The amount of people I've seen call it a cat is baffling.
Who knows. He was mauled by a pitbull in life and haunts the dog shrine as a vengeful spirit. Write your own headcanon. The game sure doesn't do it for you.
It looks like a cat. It doesn't make any dog noises. Some of the statue spirits it resurrects seem to be cats as well.
It's howling
Where do I get office key?
>braid dev streaming it
how does it fricking feel
bet he is going to get stuck at the stupidest thing and then rage quit and start crying
watched for a bit,
first of all, he plays like an old lady, like the way he moves about is too ungraceful, I even think one time he looked at the controller?
then he is obviously lost and doesn't know where to go and he says
>ugh, do I need to go all the way back to the hub room?
like how could he miss the fish melody, didn't everyone just go down there and observe the fish? The fish teaching you was so obvious,
THIS is the guy that made The Witness????
whiplash, ain't it
He has a weird white thing in the inventory looking liek a towel - what is this?
do yall think this game sold well? is billy basso popping the champizzy rn?
For some reason I only have 14 bunnies in ghost world but I have attained them all in overworld.
What do I do? it is bugged?
You can only see the UV bunny with the UV light on
And are you sure you got them all?
That still makes 15
shouldnt be 16?
Yea. Did you dream of a bunny yet?
I tried but nothing happens
how long does it take? Does it need to be in special place
Nope, it just takes a few minuets of waiting around anywhere. You need to be quick when you start dreaming though.
what is this tomfoolery?
The egg song chest.
He's fricking with you.
>spoiler
i have no idea what that is yet but thank you
I was gonna buy this but my friend said there's a bunch of SJW shit in it. Is that true?
Yes, it's full of tranimals
What do you even do with the top? I haven't found a real use for it yet. Just seems to be a worse frisbee you can't ride.
Did you try using it in the room where you got it?
Is there anything to the little bones like to the right of me in pic rel? I've found them a few different places.
>Tried to do bubble jumping with keyboard but gave up
I knew it!
the map literally has a giant dick and balls drawn into it
You're just seeing things.
I don't understand the appeal.
Oh shit, I just realized Jonathan Blow was streaming this game. Holy hell I bet he absolutely hates this game's "puzzles". I need to go back and watch the VOD.
This game requires moderate manual dexterity to complete so he'll probably have a bad time.
dont forget to tell your discord friends about it,gay
Be sure to pre-purchase Braid Anniversary Edition, unlocking in only 4 hours!
He's streaming it now and getting quite frustrated.
man he alt+F4'ed like 5+ times
quite literally
just ragequit
got the platinum trophy
What was the last thing you did? For me it was sneaking up on a squirrel. And I should have fricking known that there would be a reward for doing it repeatedly when I got a unique item for doing it once.
How do you sneak up, which squirrel?
Straight out of the tutorial area go right to chameleonland and there's an idiot squirrel with his back to a door. That's the earliest and easiest one. You gotta sneak up real quiet with the analog stick. D-pad won't work.
I assume I have to start new game
last thing was to exit the well. It was a great last trophy to get and felt like a real ending to it all.
Jblow is RAGING at platforming
Full-on controller throw, definite goty contender
LMAO he banned someone who could not stand it and gave him teleport code
https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2145144474?t=1h53m10s
BANG
And that's the guy who made braid/witness?
How are you even the puzzle game guy if you don't have any patience
He's frustrated because the game is designed poorly. The difference in game difficulty between someone who gets the bubble wand early and someone who doesn't is bad design. The difference in game difficulty between someone good at double bubble jumping and someone who isn't is bad design, especially considering how many rooms it just plain out breaks. There's no reason the first wand you get isn't the one from the end that gives you infinite bubbles. I had no problems with the difficulty but even I can see how poorly designed it is.
>The difference in game difficulty between someone who gets the bubble wand early and someone who doesn't is bad design. The difference in game difficulty between someone good at double bubble jumping and someone who isn't is bad design,
Wrong and wrong because you don't need to get to everything as soon as you come to it and you don't need to do bubble jumping at all until you get the improved wand that lets you shit out bubbles.
What the game does is show people who are impatient a mirror.
>Wrong and wrong
Correct. Giving the bubble wand early is like if Super Metroid gave you the screw attack as the 2nd item. It completely invalidates the rest of the game. The only thing the other items (until you "beat" the game) in Animal Well even do that the bubble wand can't do is let you hit switches in different configurations, which is incredibly boring design. Basically the only thing the slinky, yoyo, and disc do that the bubble can't do is hit out of reach switches.
>Giving the bubble wand early is like if Super Metroid gave you the screw attack as the 2nd item
It's literally the bomb and bomb jumping. Bomb jumping can break the game wide open but it's not expected that a new player is going to be able to do it to that extreme so they have to come back to things once they get the space jump (screw attack isn't space jump.)
Again, it just shows the people who can't wait until they get that later item and that have to do it because they see it now.
Bomb jumping is like 10x harder than bubble jumping and only goes straight up. Not even close to the same thing. You still need other items to navigate the game.
>and only goes straight up.
You can horizontal bomb jump in Super. This is what I'm talking about.
Ok, but doing that is insanely difficult to the point where it's not even worth considering for 99% of the people. Bubble jumping in Animal Well is so easy to the point where doing anything the "intended" way is pointless.
>so easy
And yet people have trouble with it.
>for 99% of people
That's how it should be. Get your better movement options and move on.
I have to agree that most of the items are glorified keycards with little utility. My first item was the slinky and I was immensely underwhelmed. Figuring out the movement property of the disc was pretty delightful, though.
what' this is it slink on the right?
Yea. that's the slinky.
Alright I know there are other warp songs.. any hints on where I would find them without just outright spoiling them? I'm at credits, 56 eggs, all but 1 candle lit if any of that is relevant.
Check around the big donut.
The only other warp I found without rabbit puzzles required the item you get for collecting all candles. Its a handy one though.
Frisbee climbing is tricky but feels so good when you get the timing down.
what for if you can get it easier with bubble?
Cuz it's fun
alright i'm kind of stumped. i'm looking everywhere in the room but cannot find the song needed. am i even supposed to use a song to progress or is it a secret? because otherwise i don't know how to get the last yellow button
the buttons are unrelated to the cats
yea i sort of figured out the button stuff 5 seconds after posting, i was just being an unobservant moron. do you get the song for the cats soon? backtracking here is gonna be annoying
>the song
It's 5 short songs and they are scattered around the area and you need a tool you likely don't have yet to get one of them.
gg
If your issue is the top left button you need to get the mouse platforms to move up and then make your way back there.
poor blow
guys I can't make the flute do a diagonal input with my controller, help
it always goes east then southeast instead of defaulting to southeast which wastes a note when I'm doing a code
omfg I figured it out, he stays in flute mode and you pick a direction BEFORE you press
analog is also way easier than dpad i m o t b h
Where do I find the code for these again? I know I saw it and I thought I took a screenshot but I didn't.
Revisit the room you got the flute.
Oh yeah, frick, no wonder I didn't screenshot
two screens left?
i feel like i shouldn't even be here. am i missing an item?
Miraculously, yes.
You are. You'll know when you get the item you need for there.
You can do it without the item
Want a hint?
The last 2 windings still not found?
No they were found one involves getting above 6 hearts using the ground hog and surviving heavy damage from the lizard and the other involves over eating 100 times without taking damage. Can be cheesed by rebooting the game and making the fruit respawn.
Which lizard?
The big ass one that eats you.
Oh the frog.
So, after you dig out time capsule - this is it for the game for now? Not mentioning deathless run and speedrun.
Thats not a frog moron
Whatever.
The raptor guide ends here so i assume this is the last discovery
Yeah, as far as I can tell. They datamined a song for the last figurine, so its still inkmowm how your SUPPOSED to get it, but it seems like that is all for now
What figurine? Do elaborate, first time hearing it.
Its just another figurine like the others. Once you play a specific song you just get it. They don't know how you're supposed to find the code though. Some speculate it has to do with random ass giraffe statue in the game
has anyone tried recreating the title theme song or the crow noises? i feel like those may have been something
Is there anything cool you can get with the wings other than the chest in the collector's edtion room? I got the headphones, too.
> collector's edtion room
Where it is?
Anon where is the collector's edtion room?
You have to play a song that will teleport you to a new area. It has a figurine chest that can only be opened with the wings, and some UV symbols on some walls. I don't know if they've totally figured it out yet, but the room looks like the acryllic display that comes with the collectors edition, so the code can likely be found on it somehow.
Do you have the code?
I got the time capsule but I still have 0 figureines. What the frick?
>took over 5 hours to beat the game
Pathetic. Also, if you got the origami bunny then you got one of the figs.
So you wont receive any figurines if you are over 5 hrs?
No, but 1 of the figurines is awarded if you beat the game under 5 hours. There's 6 total speedrun related figurines. Another one is beating the game deathless. Figurines carry over across files so if you really want them you can just start a new game without deleting your old file.
So there is currently no known usage for figurines? Really weird why the last one is so hidden, makes me think.
Is there a flute code somewhere for the datamained figurine?
Figurines are basically achievements I guess.
Giraffe figurine: upright down up left downright right down right
Code: downright downleft down left upleft left up upleft
is the yoyo as wacky and wild as I think it is, or is there actually a way to control this motherfricker
It's like a wheel driving forward on whatever surface it's touching, it's predictable
Wish the game had mobility upgrades because traversal feels too slow for me. Unless there’s some speed tech I’m unaware of
pay attention to the frog
Are you asking to be spoiled? Either way
>ALL REVIEWS:
>Overwhelmingly Positive (4,174)
wat
is the game good or its just zoomer Black personcattle posting memes because their Black persontuber
The game is okay but blown up purely because e-celeb man funded it and told people to buy it.
Dumb fricks.
These would eat shit if asked.
It's fantastic but contrarian apes, doomposters, chuddies and morons on Ganker will tell you it's shit.
It's puzzle platformer caviar, like an elegant 100 Chinese boxe puzzles in one with metroidvania elements.
But the hardest puzzle O think is finding a way to read and discuss it without getting spoiled.
>chuddies
You have a good post if you left this moron shit out.
don't tell me you're blind to the horde of mouth breathers boycotting games and entering threads to be vocal about it just to do some political posturing? We can't have a good Disco Elysium because of election tourists.
I just don't like morons who parrot meaningless newspeak words.
The fox judges me for my actions.
that's kinda hot
Oh, how do you get to this room? I think I just reached the one one screen over with the friendship egg.
How do I get this chest? i have wings and shit
it's a bark code
isnt bark code for the origami blueprint?
Any tips for the speedrun figurines? I'm trying to route it out a little before jumping into it. Other than 'do better, do faster' I'm trying to think of optimizations. You could probably skip the Manticore section by warping to the top of the hole once you get the lantern but I'm pretty sure you need to get all the flames still. Not sure if any of the rabbit warps would be super helpful since I'd probably want to pick up some eggs along the way.
There's a bug in the collectors edtion room if you want to cheese it. It takes you straight to the manticore lair, but you still need all the items (minus the yoyo if you cheese one of the manticore rooms)
Thanks anons. I had heard about it but I misunderstood where it dropped you. For some reason I thought you would end up softlocked after the first credits.
Not sure how it was found out before the CE has even left preorder. Maybe it was solved in the pre game ARG stuff.
oh so it just a figureine
>Not sure how it was found out before the CE has even left preorder
Datamining
is there any tools?
from what I know the game does not use any public engine
I have no idea.
If you use the warp to the CE bunny room while you're nearby water, you can use the same warp song again to move back to where you were by the water. If you then jump in the water you will respawn in the last area starting in the room with the crank that lifts the platform out of the water with the crank that lifts the box. That way you don't need the flames, just the tools to get to the lantern.
An easy way to drown yourself if you cant get it is to play the song while on a platform that is sinking into the water
>bit the bullet and pirated the game
>first thing i find out is that the controls suck and have no options to rebind them beyond swapping confirm and cancel around
wow i hate this
>just use a controller bro
no frick off
>first thing i find out is that the controls suck
Those are basic controls.
imagine having the most modular machine and refusing to try different controller setups.
you have a cucksoler's mind, homie
imagine making a game for the most modular machine and not allowing for FRICKING KEY REBINDING IN THE YEAR OF OUR LORD 2024
The most fun I've ever seen him have
What's the deal with these crows?
chillin
Nothing, but the ones to the left a screen, I hear they want to sing to you.
Why is the kangaroo such a prick
Say that to my face and not online and see what happens.
What happens if you spawn the white dog ghost and teleport to Outer Space?
Imam gonna test it tomorrow.
The ghost supposedly can find you anywhere, I wonder if teleporting to Space while he is in the room with singularity triggers winding
