Re: Vanilla Level Design Contest 11 -- A one and another
I'm guessing the "Theoretically beatable on the first try" was just to say "you didn't have to beat the level by getting the Dragon Coins and then dying so don't dock points for the timer reset"? Not that I'm sure how one would do that, but the level author who put the text there...

Re: DT3 Epilogue: raocow and the warship
The forgotten air dash mechanic is that attacking enemies refreshes your ability to air dash. It seems the attack also has to deal damage, so the red meteors wouldn't work.

Re: Star Fox (SNES) - ATTENTION ALL PLANETS OF THE SOLAR FEDERATION
I liked the part where the B button was referred to as "Jump" during the setup. Even when not playing Mario, raocow is still a Mario player. Not sure what was meant by "quote unquote platforming" though. I'd guess it has something to do with dealing with terrain rather than with ...

Re: La-Mulana - Balances
During the video I was worried that the numbers on the tablet raocow chose were going to look completely different from the scale's numbers because it was one of the ones that initially couldn't be read due to being in La-Mulanese (or Ancient La-Mulanese or something?). I guess that turned out to be...

Re: JUMP 0.05/0.1 - Half a jump is still a jump
I don't think I need to reiterate how hilarious the ending of the Yoshi coloring house was but I will reiterate how hilarious it was anyway. The words spoken, the comedic timing, all of it. It felt like written comedy. I had to rewind and do a double take cause I thought you were doing a bit. I fee...

Re: La-Mulana - Spellbreaker
It's very possible for him to figure it out. Give him a chance. I didn't math it out, but I am assuming the weights still can be balanced without Lameza. When he inevitably sees he can affect the scale and that there is very clearly a Lameza shaped hole in the supposedly balanced 4/3 sides, he'll p...

Re: Super Mario Bros. 3MIX - i don't have any purple coins
Lives don't even do anything in this whole comet section of the game, do they? I mean, they prevent the game over screen, but there are no checkpoints to preserve. Building up lives is solely for once we finally get to the middle star in Star Road, I guess. I also have to wonder if it would be a bet...

Re: Mega Man - The Man that is a Robot Kid
I'm surprised nobody came in here to explain the pause glitch yet. Literally all it is, is that the enemy i-frames aren't paused when you pause the game. So if you shoot an elec beam, and pause right after it hits yellow devil, while it's still over his eye, the little white explosion animation wil...

Re: Obscure SNES Videogame, "Mega Man X"
Not gonna lie: I really wasn't expecting Storm Eagle this episode.

Nah you're right - no rule changes! I'll rerun the Rednaxela match next session and go by the original rules for the result.

For the record, the other two matches tonight would go the same way whether things were based on score or survival, as one might expect. Fairly obvious results, one might say. I did check the score screens, though, just to be sure. Anyway, I'm hoping it's not too unreasonable to request that the tou...

Re: Make a Rad Bug - CONTEST CLOSED. List of Participants Posted (make sure you're on it!)
So after watching the stream, I must say I'm disappointed by the change in the rules after the bugs are in. The original announcement video, at a timestamp of 4:50 ( https://youtu.be/PFX9fxacGcQ?t=4m50s ) says "The winner of the match will go to the highest score of both bugs combined". Th...

Let us not discount the possibility that we've all been duped Mega Man 6-style into building a robot army for Horikawa so she may conquer the world.
