It's time to discuss the indie game of the year

No slay the spire gets that

I'm a few hours in and it's the best splatformer I've ever played bar none.

That's not saying much, but it's genuinely great.
People comparing it to golden era 16 bit platformers are out of their minds from where I'm at now. It's actually damn good though, unlike Hollow Knight.

Splatformer?

>dookdooks your path

...

>It's ANOTHER meatboy inspired sidescroller with spikes everywhere
>Pixelshit graphics to boot

I mean, based on that alone, it sounds like a game I would enjoy playing. Mass appeal, though, would be a whole different story. Only media I see regarding this game is this recurring thread, so it has a ways to go.

You realize Meatboy was inspired by a game made by Celeste's dev right?
Celeste also has more varied mechanics.

Celeste wasn't even the best 2D indie platformer the week of its release.

>we're now at sub 37

Celeste's level design and game-play is way better than Iconoclasts.
I don't see how you could think otherwise unless you simply dislike 2D platforming.
The only thing Iconoclasts does better is the pixel art and boss fights.

lmao that skellington looks like its straight outta castle vania

Hey Joakim, I'm sorry you spent the last 10 years making this game, but it's just incredibly average.

and puzzles and music and story

*mania

Iconoclasts puzzles are mediocre and Celeste is pure platformer.
>music
Nah.

>suck at jump boosts and wall boost jumps
>this basically looks like hacks
I'm never gonna make it.

explain this

IKTF but I'm getting better at those. Apparently they're borderline essential in some C-side levels.

At 33:05 he doesn't even use the damn block.
How long until people can TAS it?

>TAS
I'm a purist

I enjoy watching the result of people finding ways to automate entire games reliably without making modifications to the game itself, while also enjoying watching people effeiciently clear games while relying on human-level reflexes and coordination.

Fight me.

OP needs to be rangebanned

I just want to see how crazy a frame perfect run through could be.

>Fight me.
no, you're totally entitled to like TAS.

The worst Castlemania ever.

Jesus christ. Whenever I think I'm going nowhere in life I'll just remember this sad individual, thanks for making my day

Is this an Indivisible thread?

You only like it because there's a cute chocolate girl.

“Strawberries are an excellent source of vitamin C,” says Toronto-based registered dietitian Madeleine Edwards. Most mammals – except for humans – have the ability to produce vitamin C naturally, which is why it’s so important to get your daily requirement. “One serving contains 51.5 mg of vitamin C – about half of your daily requirement,” Edwards says. “Double a serving to one cup and get 100 per cent.” Vitamin C is a well-known immunity booster, as well as a powerful, fast-working antioxidant.

Yes I do.

Blandest character designs of the year.

Cred Forums is still so assblasted about BotW that even threads which have fuck all to do with decend into Zelda shitposting.

How much ass-sting did Nintendo inflict that they get to live rent-free in the minds of salty Cred Forums kiddies 24/7?

Funny how you are the only person in this entire thread who referred to Zelda outside of that single post.

That post was implying botw is good dumbass.

So, Subnautica thread?

Why don't we just kill and eat the animals that produce the most vitamin C?

>time to discuss pretentious hipster bullshit

How do you TAS PC games anyway?

>pretentious hipster bullshit

>nothing but endless Megaman platforming sections
Somehow this shit became its own genre.

Iconoclasts was better desu

Draw on a sheet of paper and scan it. Quick, my boner is going limp.

>ut i need a new graphics tablet
What happened?

We all know who will take this award.

good joke

>that final level
considering all the early game fuckups how low can we get ? 35 ?

What do red vs gold numbers mean on split times?

Red is lost time, gold is PB or something like that IIRC
