Open world procedurally created Runescape with crafting, building, decorating, and who knows what else? I was sold immediately lol
I like this. Basically Daggerfall meets Stardew Valley.
The gameplay completely reminded me of an old 90’s of game where you skied down a mountain and an evil snowman monster chased you down
SkiFree. Great game to kill a few minutes with along with Minesweeper and Space Cadet pinball!
Wow memory flash! 9 year old me could never outrun that damn snowman
That was like a required game from our generation... Lol
"Minutes"
@@WinnieAndTwins Apparently it was literally impossible to outrun the snow man.
This is exactly what I was going for with My Little Indie title, a vast randomly generated world with large scale cities where the connections were relevant for trade and travel etc. One could set up an entire farming village and still need to link it to the road network due to the size of travel, and the forest one levels wouldn't even be noticed due to how much space there is. Wagons would be beneficial, stockpiles and preservation, etc. Though i certainly planned to shirk on the complexity of the market system etc, that stuff gets complicated!
I actually really like the simplistic nature but also how open it is and you can do what you want.
Every time I need something to play I come to check your channel. Since you go through so many games each year, have you considered doing some kind of "best games of the year X" list?
That would be nice
Love your channel for all the indie games with a good bang-for-buck ratio. Thanks a lot, splat !
Strange that this game would have so much procedural work done and so little focus on the bread and butter fundamentals. Moving and hitting things are the two main things you're meant to be doing in this game. And since the creator apparently felt this was in a state to show off publicly, that spooks me a lot.
Wishlisted, looks like it'll be a great game. One of my favorite progression systems is leveling up skills the more you use them, just feels better than putting in stat points to me although growing up on tons of free mmos stat distribution does hold a special place in my heart too
That UI is so reminiscent of Morrowind
Was gonna say the same thing. Immediately reminded me of that over a Final Fantasy SNES era style of character art.
I have discovered several games from your channel, and I've loved them
Shop Owner: "Grace and Blessings to you brave traveler. Thank you for retrieving my lost pickaxe!".... "Ow why dost thou stabbest at me?"
Player: "Sorry bro, miss-clicked."
Thank you thousand times that you showed up this game cuz this is exactly what i was bin searching for :D
I'm getting a major 2D Morrowind vibe from this.
Looks pretty cool. Thanks for showing it off. Added it to my wishlist.
Interesting game, and it comes out on the 1st of May! I will try it out. Thank you Splat
Thanks for all your work in spotlighting these! Love ya Splatty!
Damn you mention your cat, and don't even bless us with a little photo insert? That's just cruel, man 🥲
This game is basically Ultima Online. Skyrim is the game that had level-ups like this but Ultima Online had it long before in the late 90s. I feel like this game must be inspired by Ultima Online somewhat?
Im in my 40s this is giving me mad old school rpg vibes
I'm the same as you, Splat! Always make my characters an extension of myself. 🙌
Love ide of the game, I'm just thinking that maybe the loot drops can be spiced up with a little "rarity" system, you know all Rpg fans love getting something different and see your stats go "up", and maybe jewelry can be used to add random effects in combat "freezing" "blinding" etc.. so crafting can have a little bit of incentive to always look for materials etc.
this gives me some major nostalgia...I hope you review it again after a bunch of development goes in
Finally a good game displayed
Feels like a less deadly, more 2D Kenshi. I'm into it.
Dungeons and Dragons, you know... that game that introduced climbing to games.
Lol, one of the many splatcattisms I watch these videos for.
You had me at "Like old games like Ultama" 🙂
Looks exactly my type of game. I just worry that this will never have the depth I'm looking for. Combat needs to be interesting. Looting too. There has to be RNG in looting too keep the dopamine hits up. Terraria / Diablo style randomization of found and crafted items are a must. And so on.
ew, how about a good game instead of tricking my dopamine receptors like I already do every weekend night huh?
"da numba incweeced by 1 and is green, me feel good now"
Huge potential here, this looks promising for something this early in development
A weapons wheel would be wonderful... the Creator should take some tips from the Mana Series or Zelda: LttP, especially when it comes to combat.
A Mini map is a necessity.
City or town building would be amazing.
Companions
Adventurers guild with a Quest Board.
I will definitely be looking out for this one
I agree with the minimap but the weapons wheel is just a completely different type of game
@@glakoblako I disagree, of course Im thinking from controller stand point but it looks like currently you slot your weapons... but you have to switch to them quickly in a fight. Can't fight with a strawberry. Especially with no dodge, block or parry that seems to be a bit of a disadvantage. Also like Splat said he accidentally keeps attacking villagers by mistake. I think a controlled selection system is the solution. A weapon should be available to you when you need it.
So there is a mini map, that is turned on by opening up the map by pressing m and then hitting local.
which switches the map from world mini map to local mini map.
@@chriscantrell9012 ya I found it later- mini map is a bit too large >< but guess it works
damn, for a second i hoped in a game about Musashi 😀
9:34 What would be interesting is if the toggle referenced peace tying a weapon.
Thanks for showcasing! ^^
Hope it gets good updates.
The friendly fire thing reminds me of Daggerfall, when you had to cycle through what clicking on people and things did. It's Elder Scrolls meets Stardew.
Lol I had two outdoor cats one named Andy and one named Olley! I named her that because I used to be a skater or die teen back in the day! They pasted! Rip Olley look forward to seeing you again!I now have a cat named Benny!
2D Kenshi? I'm in!
Those characters are created using a character sheet generator. You can add hats, clothes, weapons.
It doesn't have more animations for attacks. You probably need to get a bigger sword to have a larger attack box.
I think they're actually from a open source game graphics project, looks basically exactly like some assets I was messing with when roughing out a game concept a year or two ago. But yeah probably we've seen most or all of the available animations.
Much love Splat
this is a fun lil rpg
I feel like its zoomed far out for no reason... especially when you inside a building it should bring the camera closer to the character...
Thanks for mentioning the zoom Splatty
its always the opposite with me, i always find things too zooomed in everywhere.
@@Squibie interesting 😅
@@Squibie Same here!
@@Squibieagrees with you and he zoom level is fine with me. But to cater to different users, might be good to have a few zoom level, if it is a bit difficult for a single developer to implement a continous zoom feature
Thanks for the video.
ThankYou SirSpla77
this looks a great idea
If this game would have fishing mechanics and various animals (especially badgers) I'm ready to throw my money to the monitor!111 💸💸💸
I know sometimes these devs will do a graphic overhaul i actually hope this game gets that for it's art after implementing the majority of its features.
THIS IS LIKE RUN SCAPE AND TIBIA BUT FOR SINGLE PLAYER WOW I LOVE SUCH GAMES ; NOSTALGIE FOR SURE
What the heck?? This game looks so cool!!
I appreciate the improvement suggestions you make on these games. Everything you suggest is good
I played and enjoyed the Demo. :D Curious to see where it goes.
Hey this game looks cool
ENGAGEMENT FOR THE ENGAGEMENT GOD!
Comment for the comment demons!
@@TheGunnarRoxen 😆
Modders Paradise
it looks like they need to extend the hit box a bit or maybe make the hurt box of the enemies a little bit bigger
If the skill system and the crafting mechanics goes better than UO i will enjoy like a little kid with a new toy
The chicken slaughterer
No that you've described him and said his name I know most of us wont be able to rest till you share a picture of your Cat...
Chicken kicker!
In Morrowind, I would constantly accidentally pickpocket strangers. I see game development has not advanced past this point.
Have had this on my list for a long time, played it randomly on a Steam Next fest. Good stuff, hopefully the dev gets the money he needs to build the game he wants.
Tibia 2!
Cool
Oof, combat animations need work yet for sure!
FUCK YEAH I CANT WAIT TO FARM SOME RICE
Interesting
Dlss 3 will be perfect for this game. So I can play it at 1500 fps instead of the usual 600. I'll have to upgrade my gpu it seems.
the character creator looks like LPC Sprites
There are so many games with dodge rolls/blocking/parrying, it's nice to occasionally have games without that (especially given that I dislike souls-likes, gungeon-likes and other games that rely very heavily on you mastering those things).
Not having dodge roll, block or parry doesn't necessarily mean simple combat. Something like Diablo 2 comes to mind: it has none of those, but it still has lots of abilities, complex skill trees and combat where positioning is important.
There are also many games like old-school Zelda, with very tight and smooth combat, without the above things.
The combat in this game probably needs improvement, but adding the above things may not improve combat, as much as turn it into something else, that appeals more to a different audience.
There are certainly also games where you have dodge roll or block without building the combat around that, e.g. Diablo 3 is still very much Diablo even though there are dodge-roll-like abilities.
I never understood why D3 had rolls when it added nothing to the gameplay. I hope D4 brings us back to Diablo.
Yes. The so called action rpg. It is fun in its own way but too twitchy and based on user reaction instead of actual character skills. Which is against the very notion of a role-playing game, where the character should be the main, not the player
@@Jinkypigs Diablo-likes are most commonly called action rpgs, so I think you might have your naming backwards. Because those aren't all that twtchy, compared to souls-likes.
But then again, plenty of souls-likes have been called action rpgs, and there isn't really a clear line between the two: it's more of a spectrum of ... twitchiness.
Unless you think Diablo-likes are too twtchy as well, in which case that's perfectly fine: not everyone has to like the same types of games.
@@GameTimeWhy Blizzard will run Diablo 4 with monetization, don't play it. No one should give them a single dollar ever again after the fiasco that was Diablo Immoral.
@@MarkDeSade100 I have hated Diablo since D3. Immortal was just more of the same garbage.
I have been looking for a modernized elona. I hope this is the case...
One urgent feedback: I would ask, if you could include in the future at least always testing what happens if you die (to showcase death penalty) and what is the save system (manual, quick, nothing). In your videos you rarely die and never save. This has lead to refunds on a few occasions after realizing that the game has been a punishing survival roguelike in disguise.
Thanks!
Oh, man Now I want to go back and boot up elona again. Does anyone still play that game, though?
🖤
Love a 1 guy show... but hopefully he wont pull a Wal-Lay
Wal-Lay...thats got to be a Cube World reference, right? 🙂
@@kellerkind6169 indeed
this game has a name like one of korean dramas
Even better the manga
Ain’t nothing wrong with rpg maker stuff although now I use balkin so I can make stuff lookin like octopath and such :)
this reminds me of Elona which is like the japenese version
The amount of brown is depressing. Hopefully the creator can give a lot more life to the art in the future.
Nooooooice...
Why is my Steam content filter excluding this game? It doesn't seem possible that it would have any real sexual content. I mean, it would be pixelated anyway. Weird.
You can remove the clothes from the character... even if no genitals are depicted and this is low-res pixel art, Steam forced me to disclaim there is nudity. However, there should be no age restriction for the game, you may have a very strict content filter.
Mmmm raw chicken.
feel like that other game Necesse
Looks fun, hope it comes to Xbox.
it reminds me of Elona+
There's no such thing as quest XP in the Elder Scrolls Oo
Dwarf fortress adventure mode?
Not Switch yet.
Nakamura, are you?
"I describe this game as this-other-unrelated-game-that-you-may-not-have-heard-of"
me: oh that's very helpful thank you. Thanks for taking the time to explain that.
Reminds me of a top down Daggerfall. Super cool!
The CATIRS has been made aware of this account. A cat was mentioned in this video but no photos or video evidence were disclosed. Cattax evasion is a serious crime.

Ever notice splats advice always leans towards making the game look more like every other game of whichever genre he is reviewing.
Gameplay looks good but fuck it’s ugly. I hope there is an art overhaul planned.
woah 3 minutes ago
I’ve been playing divinity 2 for the last couple weeks. After watching this video, I have to say this game looks absolutely terrible.
Meh...wish the developers would actually watch this and improve but I don't see that happening.
Hi! Dev here! Why be so pessimistic? :D
@Pierre Vigier that's just evil jump scaring me like this. Hello Dev. I'm happy you are here.
In fact a lot of dev watch spat video and read the comments. .....
I just want to see how the game is from a player’s perspective… not hear constant recommendations from you to the developers for how they can improve the game.
Please record that separately and pass it to them privately!
You spent way too much time talking about things the game doesn't have. Which wound be fine if you were doing something, instead we were just looking at a you doing nothing while talking about things the game doesn't have.
sometimes u go abit hard on ur biased opinion and removes interest from watching rest of the video. thanks again tho
Meh...
I feel that what would be more beneficial than tightening-up the combat would be to tighten-up the graphics on level 3.
How come you always shy away from black characters even though they default to it?
Omfg um maybe because he isn't black and he wants to make the characters resemble himself kinda like the majority of people do. People love looking for chances to throw the racism card down these days.
