2:04 Wow Dust really is a name I haven't heard in a WHILE, amazing to see that to this day it's getting recognized for the amazing storytelling aspect of the game
I remember Yuki and the Dishwasher having cameo appearances as findable Friends, and that Charlie Murder (by The Dishwasher: Vampire Smile devs) has Dust's hat you can find as an equippable item. There's a 2D hack-and-slash from about a month ago that reminds me a bit of Dust in terms of art style/direction, called Magenta Horizon. Can very much recommend looking into it. The whole act 1 of 3 is the demo.
On the 11th I’ll be posting the full interview! It’s my first time conducting one so it’s kinda wack but the stuff rittzler had to say was super interesting to me
This game has the most fun out of bounds I've ever seen. Like if I can break your game in two and still have fun, you know you've made something great!
9:15 So one of the things you may have missed, the mana *does* serve another purpose. One of the upgrades in the game empowers your attacks based on how many levels of the mana you have. At two levels it increases the attack range, and at three the attack power. You might have already known this, at least instinctively, and it doesn't invalidate how you feel about it (yeah there could have been more), but it's still important to know.
WHAT DO YOUMEAN I HAVEN'T PLAYED IT!? I LOVE SMOOVMENT MOMMY!! Pseudoregalia kickstarted one the best friendships I've ever had - Gifted it to an at-the-time Vtuber and they thought it slapped so hard they wanted to hang out >:D
You're right, It is a game I haven't played. Because swinging the sword makes my laptop have a seizure. ...Excuse me while I cry in my small corner. (also wtf 3:19 literally called out the two other games I have.)
I love how many people are talking about dust in the comments, maybe I’ll do a dust video at some point. Also- *pushes glasses up to bridge of my nose* it’s actually called the dream breaker- and it’s not a sword, it’s actually closer to a cross staff-
@ ;A; Well it accomplished what it was set to do, destroying my dream Of enjoying this masterpiece! (though dev made a fix for this in a patch on their discord, it still hasn't fixed the other issues that still makes it hard to complete which is the pickups are invisible and a game of hide and seek). Also, wait--There isn't a video on dust yet? o-o; how come?!
2:01 oh hey, I've played... only one of the games on that list. And somehow, that game is fucking Dust: an Elysian Tale. (I still have memories of juggling enemies in the final stage of the game so high that I reached the ceiling. Which is impressive, considering that, diagetically, there *was* no ceiling.) Edit: 3:28 . Again. I juggled robots to the ceiling while twirling around with my sword.
You're right, i haven't played it. I've barely played any metroidvania in my life. Though i have been very fascinated with Cookie Cutter. That's a solid one with striking art style. Big passion project of the lead dev and he takes making it very seriously. There's a lot more he wants to add in the future. New characters, environments, bosses, weapons, story beats etc. until the full story is told. Definitely recommend it.
Actually a ton of comments of people who haven’t~! Also- the title was made to be more grabby but the people I’m really trying to reach are the ones who haven’t played it yet. I must convince them to enrich their LIVES
0:05 if you are a furry, there's Conbunn Cardboard (what are those CD collectibles 😳). There's also Atlyss... what in the character creation screen is this 😆
@@honeyoniyt yeah, Conbunn aesthetic is paper mario with simple platforming & collect-a-thon gameplay. Other furry things: "DOOM 2 but it was infected by the YIFF virus ... (please don't take this too seriously ;))" by @AndroidFerret at 3m31 when your doom guy(replaced by different game model) see your reflection in the mirror .... oh my... 😏 or 6m29 so thicc...
Im so fucking happy that the dev shouted out Vernal Edge. I totally understand why it didnt wow people, its shorter than expected and its progression isnt what people expect from metroidvania. BUT ITS COMBAT IS GOATED. Its basically 2D KH2. Its all about juggling and hitting finishers, and you heal by hitting the enemies with your special attacks. I need more of it. It has a small amount of enemies but it uses them so effectively. PLAY THIS GAME PLS.
You're a furry? Ewww. :P I used to like you but damn, I don't think I can support you anymore. :P More seriously, good video. I liked the analysis, personal touch, and it was super cool you actually got an interview with the author.
that's the coolest vtuber avatar i've seen in a while

This is a delightful video on a game that deserves more exposure! I really enjoyed getting a peak at the developer's intentions, too

Have you ever thought about releasing the full interview as it's own video? I'd listen to the entire thing.
@@supermario863 I actually said at the end of the video that I would be releasing that a week out from this video. So it’s coming out on the 11th~!

Just found your channel through this video and you just became my favorite internet furry trans girl
YIPEEEEEEE
But then you found melody’s channel through this video also and now she’s your favorite, huh?
( つ゚ω゚)つ Great video. You perfectly put into words what i love about the game. Def going to use this to convince my friends to play it.
Thanks! I’m glad it resonated with you! I’m happy to spread the word of my favorite cult.
