There was no challenge, the platforming was easy and only presented the smallest amount of challenge on the Running sky section (i dont remember the areas name).

But most importantly the bullet patterns (the little flower ghost things), the first few aqua ones made me believe this was gonna like an actual platformer with combat elements and every enemy type would be a different flowers bullet pattern. After that there are almost no "grunt" bullet patterns and the rest are mostly mini-bosses, now to the worst part. For some stupid reason the game doesn't want you to actually lose to any of them. They mostly deal around 20 damage, i spent 30 seconds trying to die to one of them, its ridiculous how Toby or whoever made this decision looked at well made slightly challenging encounters and decided you shouldn't be expected

to be good enough to beat them.

Like do they think deltarune fans only play deltarune? Haven't most people played a platformer before? One thing would be going easy on you with a more niche type of gameplay but platformers are so common youd have to actively try to never play one before playing deltarune

Imo this is a product of the hate hero_sword got for being "too hard". I think it was a great addition, nicely paced so even people unfamiliar with the gameplay could get used to it while still presenting a nice challenge later down the line. Its what these platforming sections should have been

Firstly im venting on Reddit so clearly ive reached some kind of breaking point.

Normally i wouldnt post something like this but i have a fever and its been a lot lately so im feeling emotional

Everything in my life aside from myself sucks. In kindergarten one of the caretakers lied almost every day to my parents that i misbehaved and because of that they beat me almost every school day to the point where baby shows and childish places make me feel like im in danger now and after they found out all i got was a "sorry" and everytime i bring this up they brush it off.

My parents fight almost every day sometimes even threatning to leave forever and if i tell them to stop it i either get yelled at, grounded or beaten, one time my mom was going to hit me and i pushed her away and she wouldnt stop screaming about how much i hurted her as if i wanst just defending myself. She has even pointed a knife at her stomach and threatned to stab/kill herself in front of me, all my dad does is shout back or get mad at me if im too annoying. I really thought after they had my sister they would change but if anything its worse. I really cant explain what years of this does to you.

The worst part is that they never mention what happened next day so i have been beaten by them and the next day they call me ungratefull for not wanting to help them do something which leads into them threatning to hit me again but they do this sparcely enough for it to always feel like snapping at them would be wrong.

Also school is horrible, almost no one in my class cares about what we're doing which led to my dumbfuck project partner using chat GPT for our assignment without even showing me his work which got us a 6 out of 20 (i tend to get good grades).

Most people there are assholes too they seem to hate any minority group, though some of them are alright. Sometimes i get bullied for being fat and kinda awkward but im mostly over that. And i cant really make friends with people im not forced to be around like classmates cause im very socially anxious and sadly i grew apart from my previous better friends.

At least im trying to get into game developement so thats fun :)

In conclusion my self worth is the only thing keeping me going

If you read everything thanks for your time :D ask me something if you wanna!

It sounds so barren and off it makes me feel a weird sense of dread, like its trying to hide something, the lyrics dont help either stuff like "Youl be dancing too when i escape at last" sounds pretty off putting when put together with the instrumental but i dont really know why a feel like that.

Can anyone relate?

So my problem is that the dark world is just straight up real. And its not like Susie cant go to the light world to buy food/eat garbage when she needs. In my opinion if Susie gets overly attached to the dark world its not really escapism that would be like saying that going often to a place because you like it is escapism, while the darkworld is objectively less "real" than the light world due to its limitations the people in there arent and i feel like calling it escapism is some Ralsei "Darkners arent real" type crap and its not like Susie is neglecting her light world life which seemingly only consists on Kris and Noelle.

What do yall think though?

Am i the only who thinks Sizzle's flavor text is referencing the bible? Since the whole thing is started by Lucifer (in snake form) tempting Eve to eat the forbidden fruit the story of the bible *IS* started by a snake.

What do yall think?

Have Ogre work the opposite of how he works now by making him buffed only if the heart has above 4000 health, that way theres a risk in playing him since he's a big investment that has to be done in the early game.

What do yall think?

Whats the deal with the chess theming for the cultist enemies? Its more blatant with the Bishop since his attack pattern is diagonal and the hat he leaves behind specifically uses the word "promote" in its description but you could also link the other pieces to different cultists (kinda). I also find it interesting that the base cultists/"pawns" can be "promoted" in three different ways, killing an enemy, getting the bishops hat or stepping into the radioactive water.

What do yall think?

Im currently halfway(ish) through the Backwaters but i have heard that after the early/early mid game the game becomes easier and id like to keep the difficulty up when i get to that point. So does anyone have any recomendations on when its best to activate the modifiers that make the game harder (like double damage for example) to keep the game difficult without going overboard with it?

Thanks in advance!

It would be cool if you were given the option to reroll your pack once if you got no new phobies as well, the reroll cost would vary from pack to pack obvs

I dont think anyone found this yet, if you throw a parasol into the water and dive in the place where you threw it you can use it as a little boat for a couple of seconds, its pretty useful in the Backwaters. I havent messed around with it that much though

Aside from the link to the video you sent before and your art i cant find jackshit on Gurly gugs existence. Is this part of the bit? Did you make him up? I need answers, please.
