Re: Donkey Kong Country 2 -- Walking Disaster
Heh. raocow's bit about the official soundtrack release missing "Mining Melancholy" is just... it's such a uniquely "Nintendo" problem. Even to this day, they have this total aversion to releasing their games' *entire* soundtracks -- which are usually *massive*, and *very good*, ...

Re: Donkey Kong Country 2 -- Crab and Job Hunting
So, that shortcut barrel you found in Lockjaw's Locker... There's actually one of those in every stage in the first two worlds (and the same is also true of DKC3), and many are hidden in weird, obscure spots that you'd need to do a team throw to reach. They're not counted towards 100% completion, th...

Re: Donkey Kong Country 2 -- One Punch
Example two: just count how often you'll spawn out of a bonus, or shoot from a cannon or whatever, and automatically land on an enemy. Often, these enemies are placed specifically so you'll get a free kill as a tiny extra "well done" reward. There's absolutely zero reason for them having ...

Re: VIP 5 2019 - Like insulating socks to the eternally snowbound
Oh, raocow.
Sees SMB3-style bricks. Tries breaking them by spinjumping. This fails. Immediately decides he needs to throw shells at them. Accidentally breaks one by hitting it from below. Does not notice.
Never change, man.
Also: raocow has a bucket o' hair. This is now canon.

Re: VIP 5 2019 - Like nostalgia to old people (read 25+) bored of current trends
I haven't had much to say, myself... other than, perhaps, how amusing I find it that a lot of "references" in this game are both to ridiculously obscure, arbitrary things... and often, the only "reference" is in the level name and a couple text boxes, with the level itself just b...

Sebby, you have *no* idea just how lenient I and the rest of the mods have *been* with you. Why does everyone single you out? Because, as everyone else here has said, you don't *listen*. To *anyone*.

Re: What games are you playing?
Mars is effective against Mercury and vice versa (Fire vs Water/Ice), and the same with Venus and Jupiter (Earth vs Lightning/Wind). Okay so if this is the case, why is Mia (water/ice) taking critical hits from Storm Lizard (wind)? To be completely honest, after playing two and a half games in the ...

Re: What games are you playing?
The whole djinni system seems kinda needlessly complex, and I don't really want to worry that much about how setting and unsetting different ones will give me different psynergies and whatnot. It's too much work and the game seems to be completely playable without putting that effort in so I haven'...

Re: SMW Hack SPC Sets
I updated the JUMP SPC set that xfix posted a while back. Fixed a few timers, standardized the tagging to the rest of the sets I uploaded, stuff like that. Nothing overly major; if you downloaded it before, you probably don't need to again. Also, I added it to the main post. Incidentally, a couple o...

Re: Unfinished raocow LPs
As another example, he's already confirmed for Sonic 3 & Knuckles, he'll do 2 playthroughs as both Sonic and Knuckles, but won't be doing a playthrough as Tails. I haven't played that, but I've heard that Knuckles gets some different levels and different routes through the levels that *are* sha...

Re: Unfinished raocow LPs
There is a bit of a fine line regarding games with mutiple playable characters. Maybe that line can be determined by how much their playthrough changes the game itself, level and storywise? A couple of points about this. First off, how much playing as another character changes up a game is subjecti...

Finally got around to updating the set. All the song origins have been added to the "Comments" field of the tags. Thanks largely to Koba and Pyro for their help.

Re: What games are you playing?
Heh... I haven't posted here in a while (I usually just ramble about games I'm playing on Discord these days), but I see that the discussion has moved in a "Golden Sun" direction, coincidentally right as I started playing Dark Dawn. And it's funny. My first impression of the game was "...

Re: JUMP ½ - Half a jump is still a jump
I was kind of disappointed that there was no real fanfare after beating RNG. I expected one more "town" to be unlocked, where you could get either some game-breakingly powerful "hey, replay the levels with this crazy add-on" item, or at least a new costume or two for replays, if ...

Re: Unfinished raocow LPs
Somehow, I don't see a return to Soldexus happening. As I understand it, that LP was a disaster, I got the impression that neither he nor the community at large *liked* the game in the first place, and I somehow doubt playing as the other character would change many minds. But hey, maybe he will. :m...

Re: JUMP -1+2*3+-3²÷2 - Half a jump is still a jump
I kinda liked XXI. Like raocow, there were a few parts where I literally didn't know what I *could've* done (both spots involving cannons in tight passages), and I felt the Gilgamesh music was kind of out of place (not that I minded, because I love that song), but the gimmick was super neat.

Anyway, I'll update the set a bit later. Thanks for the help, all.

Re: SMW Hack SPC Sets
I know what a few of the ?s are, at least. "Party in the House" is from some MOD conversion hack homebrew SNES thingy called "Modular Escape", where it's titled "Ode to MON (Part 2)". But as that's just a collection of converted MOD files, I have no idea of its origin. ...

Re: SMW Hack SPC Sets
Finished the JUMP 1/2 SPC set. I'm pretty sure I got all the music, though there might have been one or two super well-hidden ones I missed somewhere. Also: I included a doofy "bonus track" that I found too hilarious *not* to. No song identifications yet; hopefully someone can come along a...

Re: JUMP Res((e^z)/(z^3)) z=0 - Half a jump is still a jump
I loved both Goomball Machine (probably my favorite level in the entire hack, as I said yesterday) and Edinburgh. Good stuff.
Though I am curious as to why Goomball Machine has a midpoint, when I found no obvious way to *die* in the level.
