Just gonna point out that Rex Rocket, which I believe raocow will be playing if DT3 ever ends, is currently 50% off on steam. I assume he already has it, but for anyone who's interested in playing along it seems like a good opportunity.

He has it. I only suggested it first because someone gifted it too him.

I just learned that Rex Rocket is not, in fact, Jump Jet Rex which is a completely different game.

VIP 6 is now out:

https://gamingreinvented.com/news/super ... -released/

http://ux.getuploader.com/vipmario/download/80/Mix6.zip

Now has a title screen and is playable as a normal game. However, because of resource issues, they couldn't get a final boss made, so neither ending has a carol boss in it. Nor are there many fancy overworld graphics.

Sorry about that.

I honestly thought the boss of VIP 5 (not the bonus one) was a big disappointment, since it just wasn't weird enough for a VIP game, so maybe it'll be for the best. I'm gonna try and keep myself as blind as possible for raocow's eventual LP, though.

I don't think you understand. I mean that I'm pretty sure this isn't an actual release to the public, since it still contains debug features and has no VIP graphic that's separate. Releasing all of it's resources at the same time make it seem like it's a baserom update to the 2chans than something to be played yet by everyone.

E: Well technically, you can do whatever you want so.

VIP6!!! I thought it was cancelled, or would never exist. Man, if JUMP were finished I'd give it a go. Good thing raocow has been practicing the VIPs lately!

Oh, it's not finished/very beta. Ah well.

It'd be nice if someone converted the graphics and music from the game for people to use.

The Brutal Mario wiki has a link to where you can get the latest baserom, and the last upload there was 2 weeks ago. Quick check, and the only difference between the latest baserom download and CM30's download link I can find is the title screen.

EDIT: Regardless, it would probably be wise to get Horikawa/someone who knows Japanese to check the vip wiki and 2chan to make sure/see there's any info there.

"But what killed it? What killed VIP 6 to the point the team just decided to toss it out the door and be done with the whole thing?"

The link before did try to explain some of the events.

The link (gaming reinvented) is cm30's website. I wish he didn't spread the controversial release.

I assumed leomon knew he was talking about when he said it was released as finished. Or that the person who released it as finished was part of the VIP team.

Full disclosure: this is my own game. But I really think raocow would like it, and it would be a good let's play. :)

I have just released version 1.0 (i.e. the completed version) of ReTux, a platformer I was developing:

http://retux.nongnu.org

Basically, it's an indie action platformer, loosely inspired by the Mario games (especially Super Mario World), though there's also some subtle Metroid influences and some carry-over from Bowser's Last Stand (a game I previously developed). It has 41 levels, and each level has a secret "Tux doll" which you can find, usually found by solving some kind of puzzle.

There's a trailer for the game here:

https://archive.org/details/ReTuxTrailer

Just in case you're interested, raocow, I've preemptively sent you a PM with the password needed to extract the downloads. If you're not interested, you can keep it anyway. :)

The developer behind Rex Rocket has a new game coming out this fall. Mainly posting this before I forget; I'll definitely make sure to have this in the next B-side patreon poll (if raocow doesn't outright decide to play it)

If there's a game I could abso-LUTELY recommend, it's "Khimera: Destroy All Monster Girls"

http://store.steampowered.com/app/467380/

A Game Maker Game that made it through greenlight ; people keep on being surprised about its quality despite the fact that it's free.
It's basically Mega Man, except instead of a gun you have a giant stone arm, and instead of fighting robots you punch pirate monster girls.

cowrao, are you up for some feels with Demo?

http://store.steampowered.com/app/353330/

Come to think about it, I wonder what an LP of a visual novel with cowrao would be like. Don't worry, this one is super safe.
"WITH THE BURNING SPIRIT OF MORE THAN ONE THOUSAND SUNS!"

The above quote contains enough ham and cheese to feed a family of five for one week. Or to be featured in Epic Meal Time.

Considering how he speeds through text in games, even if they're very text heavy like DT3, and doesn't at least read them aloud I'd guess that it would involve completely ridiculous amounts of pausing the video to actually get what's going on thus missing 90% of what raocow's saying in the process. Or it would involve no pausing and completely missing what's happening in order to listen to raocow. Either way not exactly conducive to an lp.

That looks fantastic. It's surprising given the indie boom just how few 2D Zelda clones we get.

i'unno if i've recommended this before or not, but
i bet raocow would love environmental station alpha
it's very metroid-y but in the best ways, definitely more platforming-based than combat-based too, it's basically one of my favorite games
i've honestly never played a video game in my life

I recommend watching the playtrough from Alex Diener, if you like the game. That let's player is very good at slower games and puzzle games. I think raocow probably saw at least part of that one too. I saw him comment on some of the videos.
