I know the TUNIC text in the video is messed up. I don’t language well :)
it is so bad that i cant watch the video. you had a year to fix it, man!
Tunic was such a delightful game to play. I am not well versed in how many sales makes an indie game a success, but I feel like this game didnt get the love it deserved.
Didn't expect to find you here matto. Hope you have a nice day.
I fully agree. This game holds a special place in my heart.
By the way, many of the exploits being used in Tunic speedrun were discovered during development, but was intentionally not patched, according to the developer. The autoscroller skip was also intentionally patched in after the game have launched. I guess the idea is that, exploiting the game is still the intended way to play, because "the adventure isn't for you in the first place".
To anyone who is wondering what the "holy cross" is, it is a major spoiler, so go play Tunic first! This video is mostly not a spoiler for Tunic. It does spoil one of the plot twists, but the whole puzzle-solving side of this game is still unspoiled.
When I finished the game, I was dying to see a speedrun, it took over a week for anybody to start speedrunning this game, but when I saw its progression, I was blown away by the speedrunners' performances, I've not been disappointed, and am looking forward to any development for the routing in the future. This is my favorite game to see speedruns of this year.
Same. This game was so delightful, interesting, and has so many exploitable gameplay mechanics. I couldn’t wait to see someone smarter and faster than me figure this out.
Loved this video, Tunic was really an excellent experience. I'd strongly encourage anyone even a little interested to check out the game, whether you intend to speedrun or not, and to go in as blind as you can. It's such a ride.
I appreciate the text at 1:14 being translated correctly, really cool!
(edit wait only some of it was right, most everything else is messed up)
It took me 2 days of deduction and process of elimination to translate the language myself. Page 54 really does tell you all you need to know. I urge everyone to try deciphering it yourself, it was greatly rewarding for me at least
Nevermind lol. At 1:26 it doesn't say 'any' it sounds more like 'annyuh'. Tunic's language is phonetic and the characters pertain to the sound it makes rather than the English spelling of the word. The person who wrote that text probably just saw the letter Y at the end of the word and inputted the character for Y. But the sound ended up being Y like the start of Yak or Yellow. It should've been an 'ee' sound as in bee or me.
On top of that, the characters should have been overlaid on one another because the inner lines make a consonant sound, and the outer hexagon corresponds to vowel sounds. I can't exactly write the correct tunic character here but it should be the "NEE" character. Or without the A you could do "EN" and and "EE", with the small circle at the bottom of the First character signifying that the vowel comes first.
Your video is great so far I just had an autism moment and had to point it out lol
You should publish your translated document
I was wondering how long a video like this was going to take to come out. There's a very clever thing in TUNIC that players don't realize they can do, and it makes for a GREAT speedrun when combined with the hyper-intense movement.
Having seen the entire video and run now, that was absolute insanity to behold and I loved watching it. Thanks for putting this together and bringing more light to this intense and amazing game.
Thanks for this excellent video (and good on you for sidestepping some spoilers)! This game's something special and the speedruns are too.
A large part of thanks for the game keeping speedrun mechanics around has to go to the game's sound designer, Kevin Regamey of Powerup Audio, aka OTDQ. Having a couple runners on staff always spices up a game.
"The Librarian is one of the most difficult bosses in the game" IDK why, but I managed to beat him on my second attempt. I had _way_ more trouble with the Scavenger boss. I think I ended up fighting her like, 20+ times.
Tunics such a fun game, been a minute since i interacted with the speedrun community though, this video made me want to continue glitch hunting in it seeing as not much changed since i left.
In particular i wanna find a different method of skipping the key cutscenes as the current one is real annoying for a trick near the end of the run, im not actually sure if it was patched or not but while testing it the timing window actually changes based on how long it takes the title screen to load, the longer the game is open the longer it takes and while usually negligible it can mess up a trick like that
Awesome vid. Hadn't heard of Tunic till now but I'll definitely keep an eye out for more content about it in the future. Also hats off to the runners. Nerves of steel to run a single hit away from death.
Tunic is next up in my queue (behind Elden Ring, lol, see you in a few months), so I'm gonna hold off on watching this until I play through it. But it's dangerous to go alone, so take this like and comment.
This is such a fun breakdown! Tunic is a real gem of a game; even after finishing nearly every secret in it, I still want to consume media related to it, haha. Side note: it was a real treat to hear PMD music pop up in the video, too!
Banging video, also love the Mirror's Edge music! Feels like the video quality just keeps improving :)
The video was amazing! The way you spelled words with the secret language in the beginning drove me crazy though 😂
amazing run, amazing ideas! And very nice video!
It makes sense that a game inspired by classic games has a bunch of slick tricks. Great work.
Also, *THE SCAVENGER BOSS IS A GIRL?*
Fantastic video. I hope to see more obscure game speedrun breakdowns.
best part of these your videos is when the Castlevania Symphony of the Night music plays
this guys deck is crazy
Fuck yeah time to do dishes and drink a big Ole glass of water 🥵
This game is an absolute treat!
I hope they come up with a sequel to this game! Also, to learn “Trunic,” a portmanteau of Tunic and Runic, the written language. Like how FFX let you get letters to learn Al Bhed, I’d love to collect tomes to translate and learn Trunic, too! This game was a heck of a lot of fun, and the lore is deep and mysterious.
Me: "i think I'll do the orb skip in my challemge run, looks easier than the intended with a stick."
Me after guide: "How do I do it? Let's pull up a speedrun to see."
New Speedrun: "Wall don't exist lmao just walk to it"
beautiful video man
Tunic is such a masterpiece. It’s so much more than what it looks like, it’s on my top 5 of best game of all times.
I want to play this it looks great.
I was ready for a hello fresh ad, but nope, kept it classy. That's a like right there.
I remember skipping to the Quarry on my first playthrough by rolling a bomb to the guard on the bridge so it detonated just behind him, and was curious if the speedrun did something similar
Needless to say, I didn't expect to get through that way
Kudos for Dark Cloud music
In my own casual playthrough the red key was actually the last key I got, I just didnt realize that the path went further than the ladder until way later.
How do you control the camera to get those angles? Is there a "Theatre mode" mod or something?
I just realised the logo has tunic language on it woah. It says "SECRET LEGEND"
Is it possible that the lure has interaction frames that are different from other entities, so when it is not on a "matching" frame rate it phases through?
eh, my favorite is probably still titanfall, it's mostly just smooth momentum based movement with juuuust enough speedrun shenanigans mixed in there to keep it the best kind of silly.
...come to think of it, I'm not sure I've ever watched a speedrun of mirror's edge, I think I'm gonna go fix that after actually watching this instead of just happily responding to the comment prompt at the beginning
Haha! Jokes on you: i don't eat dinner 😹😹😹
Seriously tho, great video!!
I'm curious if the laurel skip would make the run faster but then I remember how much you have to do to get it even with the skip.
just bind with the same button two spells so you can have the frost/fire projectile easily man
Wait, from your narration, people go to eastern fortress before attol? Always thought the order was attol before fortress, I mean, I know there isn't an order here, you can go to the quarry as soon as you finish west garden, but still
How to activate or use theather mode like in the video?
Is that music from Crystal Chronicles? That sounds familiar.
Amazing video! Too bad this doesn't seem to be getting much attention
I like how you tried to translate stuff into trunic... but emphasis on the 'tried' lol.
Some words/letters don’t exist in the game’s language. So I just made do with what it gave me
@@DoctorSwellman I think you've missed the point of the language. It's phonetic, the only way you can't make a word is if it uses a phoneme that doesn't exist, which is not likely if you're sticking to phonetic English. It's not ey-n-y (any), it's ey-n-ee. And it's not t-r-o (true), it's t-r-oo. You've definitely botched it hahah, you can absolutely translate the words you've used accurately into Trunic.
@@DoctorSwellman you just dont get it at all. vowels and consonants get stacked on top of each other. but probably you dont even know what those two things are. otherwise you would have noticed.
scrogus
i enjoyed the Metroid Dread speedrun, though it's sad how much content is literally skipped compared to older titles on the GBA where you can't skip much of anything. Which brings me to how sad i am about Tunic, it looked like it was "super zelda" for those who enjoyed the old style zelda games but wanted it to do more, and i guess the developers of Tunic managed it.
To my total disbelief I did engine siege and librarian first try so I thought wow maybe I m a real gamer but then the fucking west wood golem took 734 attempts so in the end we live in a society
If you can't make dinner for one in 20 minutes y'all are terrible at making instant ramen, water goes in the kettle then you pour it in the cup.
this is metroid-like mechanic abuse
Clearly need to work on your Trunic. But maybe you've gotten better in the past 7 months.
"Arceus" is pronounced with a hard "c."
It used to be both until Legends Arceus where they realized Arc phone would sound like arse phone for some
@@TechBlade9000 No, it used to be hard "C" for almost all its existence. It got changed, but, phonetically and from a lore sense, "Arceus" with a hard "c" always made way more sense.
Ngl this is the first video of yours I'm skipping. Your description of tunic in the first 1:30 made me want to go experience the game for myself before watching.
Please play TUNIC, it’s my favorite game from 2022. This video can wait lol
Uh... Trunic is phonetic. "Any" would be spelled with two runes, one if you're using any a, and it would be a rune that's "nee" not "n y", for instance. Also, you definitely should have put a spoiler warning at the beginning of the video, this game needs a spoiler warning, playing it while knowing anything makes it a worse game.
I dunno man, I'm quite partial to 'neiv gahmei plus' :P
I have come to the conclusion, this game was programed by and absolute idiot. Kill plains that npcs are vulnerable too? what in the insane fuck did they expect?
Devs knew, they just thought it'd be funny
