Hole New World, A - Final - Dig It

Post by Grounder »



A Hole New World - 1 - king
A Hole New World - 2 - specter
A Hole New World - 3 - polar
A Hole New World - 4 - plague
A Hole New World - 5a - mole A Hole New World - 5b - black
A Hole New World - Last - 6 - tinker

A Hole New World is an arcadish platformer released in 2017, with obvious NES inspirations.

Despite the name, little to no excavation tools are involved.

strictly speaking, the game's title starts with "a"

again, not a big deal

head like a hole

this seems to be a game that came in the wake of shovel knight but it feels more... i'm gonna say classic castlevania? than megaman influenced

Can't believe raocow is only going to consider games that start with a lowercase w.

Ignoring a leading "A/An/The" when alphabetizing titles is pretty standard.

I thought that first diamond was kind of a mean set up where it baits you to jump off the roof to get it and it turns out to be over a hole you can't see (which raocow narrowly managed to avoid), but then it turned out the game has a good reason to try to get you to fall in a hole.

imo this ain't worth a loop 2, even if there's a way to do so (don't know one way or the other)

So...from what I've seen, there is a second final boss in the game. And this leads to a good ending.

If I understand this correctly, though (and I can only speculate because there's literally no written information about the endings as far as I can tell...I have only a couple speedrun vids and perfect runs as evidence), to get said second final boss, you have to beat the entire game without getting a game over. There are supposedly ways to get infinite lives to avoid game-overing, buuuuut the question you have to ask yourself is whether you want to do that.

There is, as far as I can tell, no value in getting all the gems, secret items, and characters. It's possible they affect the good ending, but again, there's nothing around to indicate that.

Spoilers about second final boss:
It's kind of a weaksauce puzzle boss, from what I can tell. I don't even know if it's worth fighting, honestly.
