@urban sparrow can confirm

opaque spindle

Now that I am a trial mod I can confirm Shovel Knight crossover. Because Dusk is a popular indie game it has to have a Shovel Knight crossover

molten peak

Don't worry, there'll be an HDusk soon enough

Then Todd Howard will make a Skyrim port for the computer in the Escher Labs

dusty jetty

balmy sluice

dusty jetty

Bulldozer. Slow and steady

exotic ibex
#

someone needs to recreate crack life campaign mode into dusk

crimson folio
#

IT IS DONE

#

I HAVE BOUGHT IT

#

I HAVE MADE IT A START MENU ICON

BECAUSE WHEN I START MY COMPUTER I START DUSK

๐Ÿ‘

crimson folio
#

god I hope this is as good as everyone says it is

#

i'm going to hate myself if it's another strafe nothingburger

#

but I doubt that

#

Also, keepin' it under 1gig, nice

crystal vessel
#

Yeah it's definitely not that

crimson folio
#

Yall made an actual game instead of an advertising campaign :P

crystal vessel
#

Well I sure as hell didn't make it but yeah those who did did a fantastic job!

crimson folio
#

well I mean the collective yall

#

meaning basically whoever

#

oh man, 110 fov default

a game after my own heart

gleaming berry

WEW

#

HAVE FUN

#

THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATRONAGE FINE CONSUMER

mild ginkgo
#

if you need any tips or whatever

#

we're here for you

crimson folio
#

I love how

#

the dual pistols

#

if you fire them just right you can jingle all the way

mild ginkgo
#

lmao

crimson folio
#

I also love how if you think it's a secret it's a secret

mild ginkgo
#

wow its like we made a game for fans of the genre ๐Ÿค”

crimson folio
#

no i mean

#

er

#

it's unlike the wall molestation of older titles

mild ginkgo
#

there we go :P

#

wall humping

#

the bot got you

#

he filters out stuff thats harmless sometimes

#

so it goes

#

i think david wanted to keep the fun parts and get rid of the annoying parts of those older games

crimson folio
#

nah I don't like the r-word either so it's cool

#

that's just basically doom 1 tho

jade root
#

Idk what I heard more in doom. Shotgun sounds or "UHN"

molten peak
#

That's why I played Dusk more than classic Doom and Quake combined

crimson folio
#

I'm also used to cute monster groans and not KILL THE NONBELIEVER

#

so there's that

molten peak
#

They were good, but man could they be obnoxious

crimson folio
#

can I mod in the sarge jump noise instead of the dusk jump sfx

#

so I can pretend I'm quaking

molten peak
#

One does not simply un-Hup

crimson folio
#

true

molten peak
#

Yeah, you'

#

lfucking enter

crimson folio
#

also these plates in the house remind me of the saw blades in ravenholm

molten peak
#

You'll have to wait for the full release before modding

crimson folio
#

๐Ÿ‘

#

is workshop support planned at all?

molten peak
#

I think so

mild ginkgo
#

yes

crimson folio
#

aw fuck I get to sleep in the bed

mild ginkgo
#

full mod support

crimson folio
#

best fucking game

mild ginkgo
#

including bsp import

#

so your quake maps, etc

#

she aint done yet

crimson folio
#

so is it just bunnyhopping in this game or strafe jumping too?

mild ginkgo
#

mostly just bhop, but theres a planned "promod" if you want a more classic style of movement

#

however dusk movement is stupid fast with 100% air control

crimson folio
#

heyyy i got 5/6 secrets

#

not bad for a first timer

mild ginkgo
#

many secrets in dusk

crimson folio
#

can you jump on top of the house in m1

#

i tried a few times, even crouch jumping but

mild ginkgo
#

yeah but its not a secret

crimson folio
#

oh well

mild ginkgo
#

you just gotta get used to the movement :P

molten peak
#

Perfect timing with the "pathetic" meme kek

mild ginkgo
#

but its doable!

crimson folio
#

yeah no kidding

mild ginkgo
#

i suggest jump with w+a strafe key

#

do it four times consecutively

#

and youll have a crazy speed and 100% air control

#

and you can go fucking nuts

#

oh also you can backflip and frontflip while in the air

crimson folio
#

bahah, the font almost looks like "Shagged a shotgun"

#

paging h-doom

#

found a small bug but not sure how to report

mild ginkgo
#

whats your bug

crimson folio
#

basically in one room of the house and I r'd some boards and tried to shoot the gas cans in the kitchen with the jump pad and they didn't blow up

#

i went into jump pad room and they blew up

#

This is the true quake rpg I've been looking for

#

you can sleep in the bed, wash up in the shower

#

heh, you can just smash the glass in the church in and hop in

#

wonderful

Jan 31 iirc

severe quail

ah that explains it

modern crown

?

severe quail
#

settings reset

#

and why do I feel like it intentionally takes 5 times to set crouch to shift thus enabling stick keys lmfao

๐Ÿ˜ญ

#trolltheplayers

#

god damn TrenchBroom is just sexy good

molten peak
#

I disabled sticky keys long ago

severe quail
#

just did

mild ginkgo
#

no no

#

the shift thing was fixed

rich gate
#

ahahaha

mild ginkgo
#

in that patch

molten peak
#

Oh, apparently I didn't. Shocked it hasn't interrupted STALKER since shift is integral to that game

severe quail
#

well not for me haha

#

๐Ÿ˜ฎ

mild ginkgo
#

lies

severe quail
#

I promise my guy

mild ginkgo
#

maybe you didnt get the update

severe quail
#

I think I did cuz I had to redo my settings hehe

#

1_2_4?

mild ginkgo
#

i think so, it should be like 1_2_shiftkeyisfixed

balmy sluice
dusty jetty
#

thank you @mild ginkgo

crimson folio
#

thanks for reminding me to disable sticky keys

pulsar bough
#

Thx shillbot

crimson folio
#

Gosh I love the homage to e1m2

crimson folio
#

does this game have ammo backpacks?

#

oh man that la llorona enemy tho

graceful wing
#

ammo backpacks?

vague egret
#

im guessing like the backback pickup in doom or quake that expands the overall ammo pool

graceful wing
#

ooooh

#

yea nothing like that in DUSK but that's not half bad of an idea

#

@thorn trout

prisma halo
#

I think it was suggested a while back

rare musk
#

I never got the point of the backpacks

prisma halo
#

The conclusion was that the ammo counts were fine as is

#

and that the backpacks would make balancing much harder

#

iirc

spice ore
#

I don't think the game needs even more ammo

rare musk
#

Like, it's such a weird pickup, why not just make the max ammo count what you think it should be off the bat

teal helm
#

ammo seems fine as it is

sullen ledge
#

I was just talking to someone who was having trouble finding ammo in the episodes...

spice ore
#

Don't think I've ever run out, throughout multiple playthroughs

sullen ledge
#

I've never been like "poop, I have NO ammo and have to use melee"

#

but this guy has

rare musk
#

Huh

#

Tell him to throw barrels at people

vague egret
#

if you're a bad shot and dont use each weapon effectively, yeah you will run out of everything quickly

dapper cape
#

Just use the sawblade.

sullen ledge
#

I'll just tell him to stop being bad at video games, got it

spice ore
#

Just spin your weapon at them

rare musk
#

He might not have much of an eye for secrets and whatnot, that might strain the ammo supply a bit

#

Though those usually aren't too heavy on the ammo in dusk, so I dunno

vague egret
#

idealy you should be swapping between weapons often

#

never using a ton of ammo for each

vocal fog
#

I rarely encountered situations where I was completely out on 1 gun but that was because I had used it constantly so it's good that the game makes you use other weapons too

rare musk
#

He did say he ran out of all ammo, and needed to melee, though

jade root
#

just play with no crosshair and a tiny bit of autoaim

dusty jetty
#

Dusk gives a lot of ammo

#

happy with the way it is now though because games that use ammo scarcity for difficulty aren't fun

#

like when you're hitting 99% of your shots and you still run out

thorn trout
#

yeah I've seen people run low on ammo even in ep1.

#

some people really aren't used to having to consider resource management in FPS

terse token
#

I shilled Dusk on my curator page, just a friendly reminder

graceful wing
#

combine that with low aim and people can run out

dusty jetty
#

I didn't think it was possible to ever run out unless you were facing a wall and firing on purpose

terse token
#

you can just throw soap

jade root
#

reminder

dusty jetty
#

I can understand running out of one ammo type like shotgun but not every single weapon

terse token
#

just don't run out of soap dude

graceful wing
#

soa๐Ÿ…ฑ

jade root
#

dusk is extremely accessible, so we also have a lot of people who've never played doom or quake, so to them, this might be an entirely new genre of game to get used to

thorn trout
#

well I've ALSO seen people just use one low in the inventory (like shotguns), then when it runs out they don't ever think to scroll UP to the weapons they have full ammo for, and start running around with pistols or sickles :P

#

@jade root yeah this

#

remember pretty much everyone in here is a retro FPS vet compared to other gamers

terse token
#

@jade root that's a bit depressing honestly

graceful wing
#

ye what david said

jade root
#

i play doom for about 2 hours everyday

graceful wing
#

the goal is to make DUSK accessible for anyone

#

since most retro games and recent retro remakes really don't do that

vocal fog
#

we want a wider audience

thorn trout
#

many of whom are not used to a) handling an inventory of tools rather than picking a favorite weapon and sticking with it, b) moving AND aiming at the same time, and c) having to consider ammo as a resource

jade root
#

and its easy to forget that not a lot of people dont do that

terse token
#

don't forget having to consider health as a resource :^)

thorn trout
#

^^^ that too

vocal fog
#

health regen when
you know, for accessibility

jade root
#

i still recommend no crosshair and a bit of autoaim

#

its not enough to make the game easy, but still makes it able for less skilled players to run and gun effectively

thorn trout
#

like, a friend was playing ep2 last night and died right before the end of m1, and was really surprised that he had to restart the whole level because he hadn't saved. He expected checkpoints. It's something that I don't think even crossed most of our minds, since we're all used to Doom and Quake and knowing we have to quicksave

terse token
#

haha that's hilarious

thorn trout
#

And I mean, he's not a dumb guy or unskilled or inexperienced with games, he just is used to games having checkpoints

jade root
#

^

#

at least AE has checkpoints

thorn trout
#

the funny thing is I totally do the same thing with games that aren't retro FPS, assuming they'll autosave. But my brain just knows anything that feels close to Doom means quicksave time :P

jade root
#

the savescum road is a deep and dark one

dapper cape
#

The first time i played, i got through half of ep1 and then quit expecting it to save automatically.

terse token
#

rip

thorn trout
#

yeah tbh autosaves at the beginning of levels probably needs to happen

rare musk
#

Just don't die, then you don't need to worry about autosaving or not

#

๐Ÿค”

vocal fog
#

man autosaves in the middle of a level are such a bummer because they usually spoil something is going to happen when put right before an encounter
and even when made "invicible" it most likely makes the game skip a frame so it's still noticeable

jade root
#

im just baffled at the amount of people who dunno how to access ep2

terse token
#

jesus christ

jade root
#

like

#

when you hit new game

#

to play ep1

#

you see ep2 right there

thorn trout
#

that was another one. None of us anticipated that being an issue because the episode format/conventions are burned into our brain

#

but for anyone not used to that, it's kind of weird and unintuitive

#

hence the menu changes :P

dapper cape
#

yeah, they assume it's like autoplay on a netflix show.

vocal fog
#

was it really that big of a percent of people?

jade root
#

it wouldnt be a bad idea to have ep2 autoload right after ep1 so you dont have to deal with menus, but whatever

#

ohmygod

#

like

#

every 5-6 hours

#

"NEW STEAM FORUM POST"

#

"HOW DO I PLAY EPISODE 2"

thorn trout
#

yeah it was constant

jade root
#

"GAME IS BROKE"

#

"DAVID SUCKS"

vocal fog
#

that just sounds like adhd or some sort of 0 spacial awareness/reading comprehention

jade root
#

"ITS NOT MY FAULT IM A FUCKING DIPSHIT"

crimson folio
#

i think the easiest fix for this would be to have a little box to tick that says something like 'BINGE MODE' so that it automatically loads the episode or something

#

in the corner or bottom

vocal fog
#

lol

prisma halo
#

seamless mode

vague egret
#

that just sounds like adhd or some sort of 0 spacial awareness/reading comprehention
par for the steam community course

vocal fog
#

I guess

rare musk
#

Or just a message that pops up the first time you complete an episode with "Episode 2 is now available" or something to the effect, to remind them they need to select it

prisma halo
#

AGH WHY ARE PEOPLE SO SHIT

rare musk
#

Though, I guess it's not exactly locked

#

idk wording, the point is a reminder that pops once is probably a simpler option than permenantly cluttering menus with an autoplay mode or something

#

if even that is necessary, I dunno if there's still people complaining about it post menu change

jade root
#

its not as big of an issue now

#

maybe if dave wasnt flipping a tit over level select

#

but ohwell

rare musk
#

oh

#

ooooooooh

#

were they all clicking 'level select', thinking that would let them choose episode 2 or something?

#

wait that did let them, I don't even know

jade root
#

no it didnt

#

but see

#

RoTT2013 had a real nice world map that no one knew about

#

and Dave was super concerned that no one would see the level in dusk

crimson folio
#

rott 2013's world map is great

jade root
#

so we put it right on the title screen

crimson folio
#

i love the little mission briefings

spice ore
#

Maybe just have the first level of each ep be able to be selected through the level selection?

#

from the start

jade root
#

its not as much as an issue now

thorn trout
#

yeah lol the result was everyone tried to start the game from level select

#

despite NEW GAME being right at the top

#

๐Ÿคท

#

players are weird

rare musk
#

Honestly I'm just thankful for the menu change because having a new game submenu with two different modes under it, and level select back on the main menu for only one of those two modes always kept throwing me off

thorn trout
#

yeah it's better now

sullen ledge
#

Never underestimate the power of idiocy that is the Steam Forums

#

I have seen some scary things on there

thorn trout
#

one of my favorite threads is still someone who posted this GIANT list of--not suggestions, things that I "NEEDED to do"--for my game The Moon Sliver, which is a short horror walking sim. All of the suggestions were giant features that would have turned it into a survival crafting game

#

it's one of the best examples of just completely missing the point

obtuse apex

add crafting to dusk

Day-night cycle

actually someone already did

Have you ever had people abuse the report system to ask for free keys? Cause that happened a lot on the Ravenfield forums

#

People reported the post saying not to ask for free keys to ask for free keys

Not even trolling, 100% serious about it too.

You see a lot of dumb on the Steam Forums. It makes you question life heavily

How many mods does the forum have?

yh, posts like this generally have a lifespan of less than a couple minutes

the full time mods from discord also mod steam

being a moderator is dumb if you do it for any reason but abusing power by making fun of dummies

I do it because I like helping people out

..by banning them...

#

๐Ÿ˜„

sullen ledge
#

Well, it isn't helping the people being banned lol

#

Helping out the people behind cool things I like

crimson folio
#

i mean, tbf idk if moderating a game gub is exactly that much of a help at the same time

sullen ledge
#

If there's no one to do it sure it's helping out

#

I hate looking on a forum to find some info but it's cluttered with spam posts

crimson folio
#

making assets, helping people learn, shilling incessantly are things that seem way more useful

#

but that's just me

vague egret
#

if he is maintaining an accessible community and enforcing standards, that provides a space for content creators to thrive

sullen ledge
#

Community is equally as important as people making content

#

If there were no community then what would be the point of making content

graceful wing
#

without a community no one's going to be there to consume content

thorn trout
#

it's a massive help. If there weren't mods I'd have to be dealing with forum/Discord stuff as well as developing the game

graceful wing
#

and it's not like NB modship doesn't come with benefits or anything. won't go into details here but our mods are pretty well taken care of

crimson folio
#

yeah they are

#

"Community is equally as important as people making content"

#

how

jade root
#

im taken care of

#

what

crimson folio
#

lmfao that's just flat out incorrect

vague egret
#

except jab

jade root
#

wtf benefits are you holding out on me

crimson folio
#

content is infinitely more important than community

rare musk
#

With a game the size of dusk, having a community's doubly important. Most singleplayer stuff stays relevant off people continuing to play, a community keeps people interested, which keeps the game selling and content being made

obtuse apex
#

jab doesnt get the dental plan

rare musk
#

And people playing the multiplayer, I doubt I'd have had much AU duskworld without this

thorn trout
#

The community is the majority of the reason Dusk's done so well so far

crimson folio
#

except that communities are usually built around making content

thorn trout
#

community is SUPER important, especially in this day and age where word of mouth is so important

jade root
#

the community is why i hate this place

#

thx guys

rare musk
#

Maybe back in the day, that's not generally the case these days

crimson folio
#

well, let's face it

thorn trout
#

yeah unfortunately it's not really a "if you build it they will come" industry anymore. You have to really be proactive about getting your game out there and building a community that will care about it / shill it

crimson folio
#

i suppose

rare musk
#

Plus just like, it serves as a place for people to talk about these games, which I would imagine most people here like

#

I know most of my friends don't care much about throwback classicly made shooters these days

prisma halo
#

they're just specimens for us to observe

crimson folio
#

but that being said, if people really enjoyed the game they'd do it on their own

graceful wing
#

i mean you could have the best game ever but without a large community backing it it'll still be a failure and fade into obscurity

crimson folio
#

i mean, if there wasn't this place, there would def be another discord or something for people who like the game made by people who like the game

#

"i mean you could have the best game ever but without a large community backing it it'll still be a failure and fade into obscurity_

#

I agree

rare musk
#

People doing it on their own, or the devs starting it up, either way it's still just a community for the game, assuming its run well.

crimson folio
#

idk moderation is overrated; a good community regulates itself

#

that's my main point

subtle quail
#

any game or mod with a discord that has a #suggestions channel is really asking for the worst ideas

crimson folio
#

if you really wanna help the game, help the game

dusty jetty
#

couldn't find this on my own but I wish I did because coming upon this area was awesome

sullen ledge
#

How would a community regulate itself?

subtle quail
#

@sullen ledge sounds like some libertarian idealistic fantasy bullshit

crimson folio
#

same way the doom, quake, etc does?

vague egret
#

theres a reason why we dont have a suggestion channel. we know how much of a useless shitshow that would be

rare musk
#

#suggestions channel that's locked so no one can post there when

sullen ledge
#

That's not giving a real explanation

crimson folio
#

it's not fantasy land shit

#

it's literally how it's usually done on shit like everywhere else

rare musk
#

It depends on the context, personally I don't think live chats like discord play well with community self moderation

crimson folio
#

that's a good point

rare musk
#

Unless you mean just community making its own moderators, which is functionally a very similar thing

crimson folio
#

except you don't have people from the publisher steering conversation

#

which is a very double-edged sword kina thing

subtle quail
#

freedom isnt free

rare musk
#

That's fair, but it also means you have the publishers interacting with the community, giving feedback, etc

crimson folio
#

not as much, anyway

rare musk
#

Yeah, double-edged definitely

#

But I'd say it's an upside on balance

crimson folio
#

tbh i think guys like David would always talk to Dave peepo and dusk peepi

#

wherever

#

but as for community over content

#

usually yeah, but dusk is a throwback in more ways than one imo

#

esp with the customizability focus

#

and mods and shit

#

that's how i read it, anyway

#

it's a hella interesting thing to think about

gusty basin
#

Dual pistols with the pickup that pumps up your RoF is hilarious

dapper cape
#

assault rifle is better

rare musk
#

Honestly dual shotguns with fastfingers is just so fun

#

Even if it's a waste of shotgun ammo compared to just SSGing people at that point

gusty basin
#

Who needs the assault rifle when you can Jon Woo around with pistols with the RoF of a MG-42

subtle quail
#

Be proud, Mr. Woo

The asasult rifle with fastfingers is like a mini A-10 Thunderbolt.

hi yes this is dusk

I saw another DUSK setted in a realistic beautiful dark open world. Not this old classic. This was a game like CITADEL with the FPS view. Could you tell me please?

I'm confused

OOOOH that game

sorry for my confusion

i thought you were joking around for a sec

that project was canceled years ago i thought?

Which one?

2018? that's news to me. i remember it trying to getfunding like years ago along with it being on greenlight for a while

Ouch sorry I was informed on that. I think it's looks like the famous Stomping Land project

I'm curious about your classic Dusk

there's tons of videos out on youtube. do a search for DUSK there and you should be good ๐Ÿ‘

bug

#

so I killed some trooper and he died on a jump pad or something

#

and now no matter how far I get from enemy and jump pad I can hear the sfx looping

okay I lied but it seems like this game doesn't differentiate verticality

#

as far as sound effects are concerned

jade root
#

wait so that didnt happen?

crimson folio
#

okay so it did

lucid trench

Does it at least get quieter? Since im sure the bouncing corpse is intentional

this is e1m9

jade root

dont lie about bugs plz

#

thats a real shitty thing to do

crimson folio
#

no I just thought it was a bug

#

I'm sorry fr

#

but like the thing is, the jump pad is like way sub level and I'm in the streets and still hearing the jump pad sfx

#

so while i'm not far away from it horizontally I am far vertically, but the sound is pretty darn loud even when it feels like it should be far away

the sfx for "go under water" is STUPID similar to the go under water sound effect in Urban Terror

#

let the hups become part of you

summer otter
#

i m 1 with the hups but i can reckon with frendo reasoning

#

maybe just a slider that adjusts the sound effect from hups to blips to bloops to blorps to harsh grating high frequency chirps

rare musk
#

dusk with bass boosted hup's when

summer otter
#

or a hup to boring slider where boring is just a plain footstep sound

rare musk
#

I mean a 'slider' with that'd be pretty awkward to implement, you'd probably do it as a binary switch if anything

#

But even then like, that'd be weird

#

Especially since plain footsteps but only when you jump?

summer otter
#

you're reading a little too hard into the word, just a plain knocking sound over the voiced hup

#

the joke of the slider mention was that it'd be purposely annoying

#

or needless

Hello! Just wanted to give you a massive thank you for creating this game, it is EXACTLY what I have been wanting (sounds sort of selfish in a way :S). I've been playing games like this for my entire life apart from the first 3 years (I was started on doom and hexen at the age of 4, some pretty interesting nightmares back then if I recall correctly lol). I have had a very stable experience while playing this game and the only thing that comes to mind is that the lava doesn't feel too threatening to me in "The Erebus Reactor" as it is possible to strafe jump across it all without taking damage (you can get the mobility required to do this by starting the strafe jump on the area above). Mind you, that is after 20 hours of gameplay and I intend to be playing a lot more. Overall brilliant work, you have my eternal thanks!!
