happened once or twice last time too

Stream has found a solution, move the player cam over that part of the screen

 

[Diablohead]

These steam group and friend invitations...

I guess it was only a matter of time before people found notification griefing.

it happens in a ton of streams, people always forget to turn off their notifications and this includes bungie streams, xbox streams, developer streams... always!

 

[Envelope]

oooh crypt of the necrodancer next O:

 

[Grinchy]

Those were some really cool runs. Spelunky never disappoints.

 

[Coonce]

Spelunky and now Crypt?? Is this roguelike mornings or something? can't wait!

music during set up is always so good

ff6 soundtrack is GOAT

 

[Diablohead]

Simpsons arcade, metroid & LoZ this evening? yes pls.

Crypt of the Necrodancer HYPE !

Always fun to see a game being speedrun for the first time

 

[cyba89]

Cool. Crypt of the Necrodancer.

Bought this game this steam sale and I'm really enjoying it so far. Curious to see what a speedrun of that game looks like.

 

[javadoze]

That Spelunky stream was really something else. Always nice to hear dev commentary on these runs.

 

[Steejee]

Only gotten as far as the Zone 2 boss in Crypt, fun to see someone plow through the whole thing.

Is he just ignoring the beat? Well that's lame. edit: okay he's not ignoring the beat, I'm not exactly sure whats going on lol. I don't know this character.

I never made it past zone 2, but I kinda lost interest.

He can't ignore the beat. Missing a beat will kill him.

He's not ignoring the beat, it's just crazy fast. I think they mentioned that missing a beat on this mode is pretty catastrophic.

Edit: Beated. I guess death is pretty catastrophic

This character is everything hard. Only can use the first weapon and is dead if you miss a beat or hits some wall or grab money or ...

Jesus.

 

[demidar]

This is nuts, and I thought the third main character was a bit much.

 

[Diablohead]

brutal game for speedrunning really, at this speed you can slip up easily and lose everything. I love this games OST.

There is a character that can ignore the beat, but runs are A LOT faster than this. This is just 2x speed for the beats

People who haven't played Necrodancer can't even imagine how difficult what he's doing right now really is.

 

[Wunder]

This is INSANE

 

[mnz]

Such a weird way to play the game. Guess I won't pick up any tips for my actual play with this one.

I think playing the game this way only occurs after you've put in waaay too many hours and can basically sleepwalk through the whole thing.

 

[Quenk]

I think they mentioned how many people have completed coda runs before and it was a low number. Anyone catch it?

 

[Crayolan]

This game looks insane.

 

[Iryx]

I think they mentioned how many people have completed coda runs before and it was a low number. Anyone catch it?

They said around 10.

 

[Creamium]

So how does this game work? You can only move if you follow the beat correctly?

 

[YianGaruga]

If you don't follow the beat you get hurt, or in this mode you instantly die. Check out some normal gameplay on Youtube or something, it's really good.

 

[Ghost]

That Necrodancer clear...insane! No drop beats, avoiding all gold, double time beats and only dagger.

 

[GeoNeo]

Poor girl got no hug.

 

[jett]

That was pretty nuts.

How come the girl didn't get any love at the end though LOL. That was one long bro-hug.

If you don't follow the beat you get hurt, or in this mode you instantly die.

Normally you just lose your attack multiplier.

 

[nan0]

What was the thing at the bottom? DId it indicate the beat?

right

 

[Wunder]

holy shit

Oh right, has been a while since I played

 

[Eila]

Why is he so emotional? Was it a world record or something? Kind of missed the end.

 

[Steejee]

Though there is one character (Bard) who actually triggers the beat each time he moves. Good to play as if you're rhythmically challenged or what to play the game in a more strategic fashion.

 

[ratcliffja]

Man he really ignored the girl in the couch at the end of the Necrodancer run. I wonder why.

 

[demidar]

Incredible. I was worried he might have to tap out.

 

[vocab]

I can't even beat world 2 with the default character because i'm music retarded. This guy playing masochist mode and beating that shit. This and spelunky run was really impressive.

 

[Sir Blaming]

Looks like it's strictly bromance on this train only.

 

[Nanashrew]

That was my friend Arachness on the couch

That was really cool!

 

[Wallach]

Completing that run at all is incredibly hard, much less doing it in a marathon. He said he set a new WR during practice.

 

[Quenk]

The run itself is really, really, really hard.

 

[Coonce]

just a really tough run, he's one of the few people who can do it (or has been proven to do it anyway)

he set a world record during training (?)

 

[Diablohead]

If you people liked all that keyboard tapping just wait for the dancemania stuff, like 500 presses per minute on keyboard.

 

[Eila]

Interesting. As someone who hasn't played the game it looked really weird.

 

[Quenk]

Yeah. He said that during his training there was a while where he was stuck on world 1 and a couple weeks ago he set a new WR.

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

You have to have played the game(or at least seen normal gameplay) to really understand how hard the run is, you need to be in rhythm at all times while still having to make decisions on the fly.

They should really list the music tracks they play during breaks on the layout. They pick some really good music.

They've been playing DKC2 music right now.
