"i love this game, it kills me so much."
i made a highlights reel of my monkey ball streams! if you're never watched me stream before, this is a great introduction. hope you enjoy ๐
like i'm excited for the rest of the announcements, don't get me wrong, but i really just want to be able to play wario land 4 on my switch
at some point i wanna throw together a progress video of "What's New In Retrush" cause there's a few neat things to show! i just need to pull myself away from replaying stages over and over again because they're too much fun ehehe
the remixes in particular have gotten a lot of love โ a level select that saves which remixes you've cleared, a TON of difficulty improvements, plus they have checkpoints now! ๐ they finally feel like proper levels and not just assorted extra challenges for "expert players only"
this was a surprisingly difficult effect to create
the short story is i layered three particles on top of each other and wrote a shader to mask them to the tileset
plus uhh global particle management so that the drill trail moves with moving drill blocks
i am not distrustful of neurotypicals but i *am* distrustful of neurotypicals in positions of authority
i've been trying to write some new material for it on the side but it might not last long. especially if i'm focusing on something else for the rest of its run...
oh well! still excited to have posted it all ๐
i just realized that if Retrush releases when i'm aiming for... it'll be right after Now U Know Gaming runs out of its original run of material
for the first time in years, i finally see the light at the end of the tunnel โ and i'm making the conscious decision to chase it. not just being led by hyperfixation, but CHOOSING to see this through.
i hope you'll be there to celebrate with me at the finish line ๐
