Like seriously, this update is huge. Tried out new characters, tried the casino, literally JUST found out 5 minutes ago there’s mining and woodworking now?!
for Member references (i will use Firstname - Surname) - *Noel Shirogane* : yep, her character lore is that she is a holy Paladin and a bit of a Muscle head. Her greeting are KonMuscle & OtsuMuscle.

(K)night Cup is indeed a pun on the fact that she's the busiest member of HoloJP, yes she consents to the jokes, & yes she actually has that body type IRL. however, she's too much of a goofball to be sexy most of the time Breastplate & Knightly Milk are indeed her signature items. her casual outfit does have a toggle for cowprints - *Kanata Amane* : her character lore is that she's an allegedly demure & petite Angel. She is comically non-girly the Gorilla jokes are mostly referencing that she has a Grip strength of 54kg despite her small body type (& has a bit of a messy room) her fans are the Blue Axolotls & that's referencing her arduous journey to get the Blue Axolotl in Minecraft which requires a lot of Axolotl farming & is entirely luck based, it was quite a journey the Angelic voice is no joke, she is one of the most accomplished singers in Hololive, able to hold a note for 21 seconds. which is even more impressive when you account for the fact that she's fully deaf in her leaf ear. Her SuperColab weapon is a reference to the fact that she & Coco used to live together & allowed other members to stay in their house if they needed to prepare for events & lived too far away from the Cover Studio Kanata is the other main target of the Cutting Board jokes (again, she consented to it) - *Flare Shiranui* : lore-wise she's a Half Elf mage (not an archer, very important); as Dan noticed by the references, Flare is quite of a gamer herself, her main weapon being the (not) Splatershot from Splatoon as she alongside IRyS & Roboco are a Rank X team; her Ultimate is the (not) Gaster Blaster referencing the fact that she really enjoys the Sans bossfight & wiped the floor with him 8 times in a row; her other abilities reference her being one of the three Main construction companies in Minecraft, Shiraken. Noel & Flare used to be a bit of a couple known as NoeFure. but after Fans ran the joke to the ground the Romantic part got dropped, & now Noel is a massive Subaru fan, while Flare is a massive Ina fan - *Luna Himemoori* : the Princess of the Candy Kingdom, self-proclaimed 0-year-old baby due to her voice & mannerisms, ironically she actually knows how to code in COBOL & rides a Harley. Her playstyle is a joke on her infamous lack of stamina. Luna is an Eletone player, & Yamaha actually teamed up with Luna to have her appear in the Instruction Manual, & they even made a fully custom Pink Eletone also, yes her voice is actually UwU even back when she was a Nijisanji Vtuber - *AZKi* : she got a bit of a revisit in this Update both her new skill & new Ultimate are a reference to her impressive skills at Geoguesser, she even changer her greeting to match "ZeroGuessing the way to your heart" with Zero Guess being the fan-term for getting the Exact Location in that game her Mascot the Pioneer got a new design by AZKi herself, it's now a pink Marmot with a Geo Pin for the tail
so, i will save Coco & the remaining girls for the next stream/video, but i will leave a tidbit. because Coco's graduation involved a fair bit of controversy from China, Flare's design actually had to be reworked into her current default, she had a lot more Chinese styled outfit & the Elfriends were little Pandas. another Flare Trivia: she's one of the only 2 Hololive Members to share a character designer with a HoloStars talent, Italian DJ, Aruran. The other set is Sana Tsukomo & Vesper Noir (both of them Graduated sadly)
@@Artista_FrustradoThis also affected the base design of Momosuzu Nene. Her kayfabe at debut is a chinese girl. Then taiwan happened... I lost touch of holofive, so i forgot her kayfabe now, but it dabbled to different territories...
On stage 5 there are ships on the side of the map and they shoot cannonballs at you when you are in firing range. They don't move though, so when you find a spot that shoots cannonballs at you, you can opt to not make doughnuts in the danger zone and leave for a safer area.
The Pekora-as-a-Gundam, Pekodam, comes from a Minecraft Arc where Pekora started building a giant Minecraft mecha version of herself. It prompted Subaru to build a counter-mecha, the Shubangelion, which is where the giant muscled duck in the stage 3 Halloween Castle, comes from. They proceeded to prank each other and mess with the others construction, and drew in a host of the other girls to the shenanigans. It was quite a time to be a Hololive fan.
I expected stage 5 to be quite difficult, so I ended up going with Fauna and her untouchable build. Turns out I kinda over specced and just sat on the starting area for the whole duration. The jingiskan super collab item is extremely powerful for almost everyone, but especially on the "healing" type characters, Fauna, Choco, Mel, and Watame. For Fauna it basically gives you a rapid fire high damage shield that doesn't allow anything to get close.
12:44 last week they added another five on the on the JP under the banner of Flow_glow. Which brings the count to 19 on the JP side and then 9?8? on the EN side with Advent and Justice. And it's been floated that eventually they want the Stars in as well (Holostars being the male only brother group).
For the record, there are: * 2 more JP generations still to be added (9 or 10 members, depending on whether or not Aloe Mano gets added, as a lack of source material is a significant issue for her) * 2 generations of the spin-off group DEV_IS (10 members, given how new the second gen of them are, we can probably expect them to not be added for some time) * 2 more generations of EN talents (9 members if you count FuwaMoco as two separate characters, which they probably won't be) * 4 generations of HoloStars JP (16 members, though I don't know if there are any members that are either too controversial or lacking in source material to adapt) * 2 generations of HoloStars EN (12 members) If this doesn't sound that bad, I'd like to point out when the HoloCure 0.6 update launched on Steam last year, DEV_IS didn't exist and Hololives' EN branch had 2 generations.
@@Tyrranis Realistically, yeah, Nepolabo and HoloX will probably be next. After that though, who knows. He could always go the route of working in the first gens of Advent and ReGloss in together, then the 2nd gens of them in another update. Would love to see some Stars in between all that though. Definitely no lack of material, and the gens are smaller in terms of members, so he could do something like first and second, then the rest eventually. Cause at this rate, if he just goes for the newest Hololive gen, there will always be something new before he'd have time to work on including Stars.
This update is great the only potential problem is the anti-synergy between peoples desire to try out new characters on new stages and later stages being harder as well as new characters not being at their full power because they haven't got their "fandom" leveled up yet thus making the new characters possibly appear "weak" to people who aren't as familiar or comfortable with the game.
Yeah, I agree. I ended up using Marine for coin farming and hitting gachikoi with Flare, but I cleared stage five with Kaela. Still working on stage 4 hard.
@@crayishikara I got shafted at 19:30 minutes at stage 4 hard, was playing Mumei. I was jamming to the music too hard I lost focus. At least I managed to unlock all the Armory with that run.
In Holohouse with Kaela you can gather materials and craft Prisms, this are selected on the menu where you select food and item, Prisms decrease the damage you take on levels, each have a max HP per level and they have a certain damage mitigation too. They get damaged and consumed in-level (its a grey bar under the HP bar), but once you are out you can just equip it again (they are infinite in availability, the durability is only for the duration of the level, and repairs between stages) Also, you can check the changelog to see the changes some characters had between versions.
so random Stream commentaty: Dan asked for the math at the end: EN has 11 talents in-game out of 20 total (or 19 depending how you count the FuwaMoco twins) ID has the full 9 members JP has 27 out of the 37 members (36 if Aloe Mano also gets excluded) & there's a new Branch, Dev_is (pronounced Device) that is 10 members - the Issue with "Twin-Stick Survivors" is that of the famous entries, HoloCure is one of the few, if not the only, Twin-stick - yep, the Sparkles for Former membersis a new addition, in Bottom left to Top the members are: Tsukomo Sana, Amelia Watson, Aqua Minato, Mel Yozora, & Coco Kiryu... Rushia Uriuha from HoloFantasy was excluded; which understandable, her Termination involved her husband & was very controversial; still funny because there's now 2 songs by her (Halloween Night, & Interact Fantasia) - so, for EN 2 they changed the name to Council + Promise, as this year they reorganized the second gen to include IRyS (but is missing Sana) - so it is Steam & itch Io only, EDIT: only Holox Break is a HolIndie published game - lmao, Dan couldn't escape Biboo the Gem of Brainrot - Pekondam the Stage 4 main boss is a giant Mech built by Pekora in the Minecraft server, & the origin from the Stage 2 Mid-boss Shubangelion -so the HoloHouse mode NPCs actually have extra dialogue if you talki to them with their respective Character: The Mascots are Gura's Bloop tending the Fishing, Flare's Elfriend runs the House, & Fauna's Nemu runs the farm. the Kowalskia's Forge: is ran by Ckia (pronounced See-Kee-ah) who is Kaela roleplaying as her Little Sister Pekora's Casino is ran by PekoMama who is Pekora's IRL mom & a fan favorite, who mostly shows up for April Fools streams - the Tower of Suffering was pretty much made to mess with Cali who has finished Jump King & the DLC, and she has even done Speedruns & races of it - so there's a glitch in the Casino that you can end up with negative PekoChips, Kay decided to keep it as it is pretty funny - the Stage 4 song is a madley of Interact Fantasia & Kiseki Knot, the main themes of both Gen 3 & 4; Kiseki Knot being a song they composed as a send-off for Coco before she Graduated. - yeah sadly TH-cam isn't really useful when it comes to chat integrations, & the only member that streams on Twitch consistently is La+ Darkness, Towa & AkiRose do stream on Twitch when they feel like playing Valorant or Ark respectively - you call it a Meme, but the Reverse stamp is surprisingly good for Kiara, as her playstyle revolves around moving constantly - Super Items appearing as upgrades for existing items is new for this Update & I'm very thankful - thankfully the Achievement list does tell you how to unlock items
Also, don't let me explaining you the Hololive Lore "distract you from the fact that Pekora bought a F*cking Monkey!" that you too can buy at the casino. The monkey's name is Jill & when Pekora shared the news she tweeted in English "F*cking Monkey, F*cking Happy",it's one of the fandom's favorite memes
looked it up because i was uncertain. unless i'm looking at bad info, holocure isn't under Holo Indie. i have a vague recollection of kay yu mentioning not wanting holocure to be a part of it. HOWEVER, Holo X Break IS part of Holo Indie.
The second half of the music on Stage 5 is from the song Kiseki Knot. Kanata funded the production of this song personally as a farewell tribute for her dear friend, arguably one of the most influential people in all of hololive, and fellow HoloForce genmate, Coco.
I love that Luna kit can be played like Souls games. Her basic weapon is attack is an overhead swing (a slow and heavy attack) and her Baby Princess skill need you to stand still for a second to commit a powerful attack then run (increased attack and speed), a hit-and-run strategy in every Souls games I know. It can be my imagination but maybe Kay Yu design her kit based on her love for Dark Souls series.
So fun fact about the whole genre discussion: There is actually a FPS survivor type game. So it is getting even harder to pin the genre down by the minute. (for those interested it's called Vampire Hunters. It honestly doesn't add much past it being a FPS but if you are into survivor games and wish you could play them as a FPS there you go)
2:50:00 Knightly Milk got a nice buff apparently 4:25:00 Is it Wa-Ta-Mate? I don't remember 4:39:25 I think boosting speed to get the most out of Baby Princess is an idea, but her kit is very open ended. I don't think a lot in the game right now has stun
Correction for 26:49, the game is still fsn project but now part of Hololive Indie game project. This special project from hololive for dev who want to make game with hololive content to officially able to earn money, in way they become official affiliate. And Holocure is considered one of them, but Kay Yu(main dev) still want it free
Actually, Holocure specifically rejected being part of HoloIndie, and is still fully independent. This was done in order to be able to keep the ability to do what they want (ie. Add coco) without cover having a say in it. Even though cover would probably agree anyway, KayYu wanted to keep that freedom assured. Their other game, HoloX Break, IS affiliated with HoloIndie because they won't add any more characters
The titles I've heard for this genre: Bullet Heaven (my personal favorite) Swarm Survivor (probably the best "all rounder" option) Survivor-Like (the most bleh option) I hadn't heard Twinstick Survivor, but many of the entries I've played in this genre are not actually twinstick-compatible, making it a bit of a mis-moniker. Holocure was a standout _because_ it had twinstick capabilities.
Back then and still right now the people tagged this game gerne as bullet heaven, since the game keep updated with new content it became both since boss can do what bullet hell does
@@kraizerxthesimp46 Only people who call this bullet heaven are people who don't play bullet hell and schmups so they miss the point. It's like they saw a mario clone jumping so they called it jumping heaven.
I feel that Survivorlike is a pretty workable genre title, namely because these games *all* came out in the wake of Vampire Survivors and built on those mechanics. Not necessarily a fan of "[x] + like" as a descriptor usually (seems a bit lazy) but the design DNA really does draw from the one well
i think we already settled on "Bullet Heaven" because is the reverse of a "Bullet Hell"... at the very least Steam did. Yeah, either Adventure Platformer, or Open-World Platformer would be good alternatives to Metroidvania
I feel like "2D horde survival" is more apt, since arena implies you're in a restricted space. I'm not sure about vampires/20 minutes, but holocure is an infinite play space. You can just keep moving left and never hit a wall (or enemy, with enough move speed).
@@Solus749 *puts on arcade shmup player hat* No way is this bullet hell. Shoot 'em up/ STG, yes; no way bullet hell. The requirement is several hundred (often thousands) of enemy bullets on screen at once. Also player hitbox being much smaller than their sprite (like 2x2 or 4x4 pixels). We have HP here (unless you turn on hardcore), which is also anathema to bullet hell. They're a genre where writing your own game engine (this uses gamemaker) is basically a requirement! You will get lag due to how many objects there are, and you don't want this to change depending on how beefy a computer you have (not lagging enough make these games much harder than they were play tested for). As for genre names. Adventure, action-adventure , rogue-like and visual novel all still reference the games they're named for. FPS were doom-clones for the first few years too, and RPGs are like pen and paper RPGs. I wouldn't get to stuck on it, "it's like this other game everyone knows" is pretty clear about what to expect.
@@TheAyrix thousend of bullets are smupps , bullet hells don't need that many that just need it to be alot of bullets to dodge/melee charging enemies. There are smupps with healthbars too btw like I said genre is 2 decades old atleast rpgs as a genre is so wide that is refer to ROLE playing game, if you are an amazon in diablo 2 you are techically roleplaying just saying.....hence wht rpg usually gets cut up into crpg ( character rpg, this would be your pillars, of eternity, baldurs gate and such games ), s/t rpg (strategy/tactics rpg usually final fantasy tactics and such games ) , jrpg and action rpg diablo, witcher series etc
Sorry if this comes up later in the vod. Only at Greetings, but I've heard Vampire Survivors described as a rogue-lite survive-a-thon. Since this game is similar just with more interactivity, could "Survive-a-thon" be an apt genre definition?
if kay yu ever ports this thing to mobile i'm gonna get fired from my job
Sadly, (or fortunately if you like your job I guess) Kay renewed his statement about not planning a mobile port in the foreseeable future on his itch page :/ Maybe in a couple of years!
Try Winlator.
It runs Windows programs through Wine, inside of a minimal Ubuntu container. You can even set up on-screen gamepad input.
Getting Steam to work might be problematic, but the version from Itch works flawlessly...
That is aside for the fact the gameplay is sluggish on my Snapdragon 778G, even when assigning faster cores to Winlator - x86 to ARM translation requires a very powerful CPU. And HoloCure being single-threaded game makes it even worse.

1:23:47 A fellow pebble.🗿
aww Dang It, i missed it live yesterday
So fun fact about the whole genre discussion: There is actually a FPS survivor type game. So it is getting even harder to pin the genre down by the minute.
(for those interested it's called Vampire Hunters. It honestly doesn't add much past it being a FPS but if you are into survivor games and wish you could play them as a FPS there you go)
Haven't started watching yet, but hyped for this stream. Been enjoying the update a lot!
2:50:00 Knightly Milk got a nice buff apparently
4:25:00 Is it Wa-Ta-Mate? I don't remember
4:39:25 I think boosting speed to get the most out of Baby Princess is an idea, but her kit is very open ended. I don't think a lot in the game right now has stun
You say Watame like wah-tah-meh. You say watamate like wata(me) + mate (like g'day mate).
1:54:00 - It's just the Chao garden stuff from Sonic Adventure!
Quick dash could probably help you get out of the lightning aoe thing right?
I must have missed the stream where it was introduced, but I am curious who did the art for your break screen? It is lovely.
Correction for 26:49, the game is still fsn project but now part of Hololive Indie game project. This special project from hololive for dev who want to make game with hololive content to officially able to earn money, in way they become official affiliate. And Holocure is considered one of them, but Kay Yu(main dev) still want it free
Actually, Holocure specifically rejected being part of HoloIndie, and is still fully independent. This was done in order to be able to keep the ability to do what they want (ie. Add coco) without cover having a say in it. Even though cover would probably agree anyway, KayYu wanted to keep that freedom assured.
Their other game, HoloX Break, IS affiliated with HoloIndie because they won't add any more characters
@firechaser4095 oh wait dang, i thought it still went with the Indie project. Guess just break only
Even Hololive itself wants to give Kay Yu money and he won't let them. Man is a true Gigachad.
The titles I've heard for this genre:
Bullet Heaven (my personal favorite)
Swarm Survivor (probably the best "all rounder" option)
Survivor-Like (the most bleh option)
I hadn't heard Twinstick Survivor, but many of the entries I've played in this genre are not actually twinstick-compatible, making it a bit of a mis-moniker. Holocure was a standout _because_ it had twinstick capabilities.
i call the genre swarm survival.
Back then and still right now the people tagged this game gerne as bullet heaven, since the game keep updated with new content it became both since boss can do what bullet hell does
@@kraizerxthesimp46 Only people who call this bullet heaven are people who don't play bullet hell and schmups so they miss the point. It's like they saw a mario clone jumping so they called it jumping heaven.
I think the term, Super Swarmer. Is very appropriate.
@@belldrop7365urmm no lemao, this clearly that u dont even know what you're yapping on
@@Glitterstaff-c8y rougelike survival sound more cooler imho
I feel that Survivorlike is a pretty workable genre title, namely because these games *all* came out in the wake of Vampire Survivors and built on those mechanics. Not necessarily a fan of "[x] + like" as a descriptor usually (seems a bit lazy) but the design DNA really does draw from the one well
Not to mention that Vampire Survivors was inspired by Magic Survivors to begin with.
This not a single game anymore
Kay yu what have you done
This can be more addicting tham drug
For this genre, I like "Arena Survivor" as a name. I also like "Adventure Platformer" for "Metroidvanias", personally.
i think we already settled on "Bullet Heaven" because is the reverse of a "Bullet Hell"... at the very least Steam did.
Yeah, either Adventure Platformer, or Open-World Platformer would be good alternatives to Metroidvania
I feel like "2D horde survival" is more apt, since arena implies you're in a restricted space. I'm not sure about vampires/20 minutes, but holocure is an infinite play space. You can just keep moving left and never hit a wall (or enemy, with enough move speed).
@@Solus749 *puts on arcade shmup player hat*
No way is this bullet hell. Shoot 'em up/ STG, yes; no way bullet hell. The requirement is several hundred (often thousands) of enemy bullets on screen at once. Also player hitbox being much smaller than their sprite (like 2x2 or 4x4 pixels). We have HP here (unless you turn on hardcore), which is also anathema to bullet hell. They're a genre where writing your own game engine (this uses gamemaker) is basically a requirement! You will get lag due to how many objects there are, and you don't want this to change depending on how beefy a computer you have (not lagging enough make these games much harder than they were play tested for).
As for genre names. Adventure, action-adventure , rogue-like and visual novel all still reference the games they're named for. FPS were doom-clones for the first few years too, and RPGs are like pen and paper RPGs. I wouldn't get to stuck on it, "it's like this other game everyone knows" is pretty clear about what to expect.
@@TheAyrix thousend of bullets are smupps , bullet hells don't need that many that just need it to be alot of bullets to dodge/melee charging enemies. There are smupps with healthbars too btw like I said genre is 2 decades old atleast
rpgs as a genre is so wide that is refer to ROLE playing game, if you are an amazon in diablo 2 you are techically roleplaying just saying.....hence wht rpg usually gets cut up into crpg ( character rpg, this would be your pillars, of eternity, baldurs gate and such games ), s/t rpg (strategy/tactics rpg usually final fantasy tactics and such games ) , jrpg and action rpg diablo, witcher series etc
@@TheAyrix it is the same reason first person shooter, third person shooter and twinstick shooter is FAR more common than hero shooter tags.
5:26:06 sleepy princess has moved enough today
1:23:47 yoooo a pebble lmaooo
theres a holocure port for mobile old ver. i think its 0.1 i still have it
Unofficial.
It's a program running on an emulator.
You still have that? People already report it and take it down because it was not from Kay Yu himself.
same Dan, same
BIG POG
Btw, that orange dragon is one of the people that changed my life in a big big way, she is there, I'm so happy 🥹🥹🥹🥹
Sorry if this comes up later in the vod. Only at Greetings, but I've heard Vampire Survivors described as a rogue-lite survive-a-thon. Since this game is similar just with more interactivity, could "Survive-a-thon" be an apt genre definition?
