visual aurora
dapper spire
agreed
opal plover
Yeah
wheat zinc
imagine Andrew composing a light hearted platforming adventure
visual aurora
I mean, hell, Dusk has a fucking insanely good foundation
opal plover
With the climbing hooks too
jagged ferry
true
dapper spire
yep
wheat zinc
the real question
jagged ferry
well, a bunch at least
opal plover
Didn't Andy score Rad Rodgers @wheat zinc
wheat zinc
how long until someone port DUSK map layout in ummm
jagged ferry
people could probably find a way to add more tools
visual aurora
Honestly, I'm more psyched for what people port to DUSK
opal plover
Lightning Storm did Head Cheese in Doom
visual aurora
seems neat
dapper spire
wait even better
cosmic urchin
jagged ferry
i'm kind of sad there wasn't a blood-esque train level in dusk
dapper spire
nuts.wad in dusk
wheat zinc
Premium EP4 DLC for DUSK
dapper spire
^
jagged ferry
nuts.wad but it's hups.wad because it's dusk
dapper spire
put a train level in dusk
opal plover
Dave wanted a monorail level in Ep2
dapper spire
he did?
opal plover
Would be perfect between E2M5 and M6 imo
jagged ferry
that would've made e2 even better tbh
opal plover
Yes
dapper spire
aw man
dapper spire
that was a missed opportunity
wheat zinc
it just feels so good
jagged ferry
"Hello, Old Friend"
jagged ferry
BOOM
chickchick
BOOM
cosmic urchin
the lever action shotties tho,
wheat zinc
Lever Action Shotties I didn't really use much if I have a SSG
opal plover
dapper spire
once you get the super shotgun, you’re never gonna use the lever action shotguns
jagged ferry
well
jagged ferry
you might use it for enemies where you don't need an ssg but the pistols/ar won't cut it
dapper spire
they also look cool when reloading
visual aurora
because of the way they fire
jagged ferry
like the black phillips
cosmic urchin
i still use them if there are a bunch of targets to mop up
jagged ferry
or soldiers
cosmic urchin
ssg for bigger boys
dapper spire
I just use super shotgun and machine gun for everything lmao
jagged ferry
gg
wheat zinc
Assault Rifle is more powerful than it looks in my opinion
wheat zinc
also Assault Rifle with rapid fire 2x
feels so amazing
actually anything with rapid fire feels amazing
opal plover
Game needs fixed first of all
wheat zinc
even the pistols lol
wheat zinc
SSG with 2 totems is basically a double barreled AA12
dapper spire
yep
wheat zinc
I didn't even care about my own safety
dapper spire
it’s a pretty fun level because of it
wheat zinc
I legit just went at mach 5
trying to kill everything I can
while I still has the boost
cosmic urchin
that level had such a strange design.
jagged ferry
it works
jagged ferry
i kinda got over them after m4 tbh
dapper spire
theyre no longer a threat with a fast fire totem
jagged ferry
...and then i realized they crunch
jagged ferry
wait
cosmic urchin
i became very acquainted with the mortar in ep3
jagged ferry
e3m5 is blasphemy
wheat zinc
oh fuck
jagged ferry
brimstone is e3m6
wheat zinc
I mean E3M6
jagged ferry
we are officially Smartn't
dapper spire
E3M7 is homecoming right?
dapper spire
F
dapper spire
oh shit rank up
visual aurora
ayyy
visual aurora
hey me too
wheat zinc
dapper spire
rat noise
opal plover
imo 1 is the best endless
visual aurora
rats
opal plover
I'll try to remake endless 3 with a bigger cathedral that encourages vertical combat
cosmic urchin
soon we'll have to infest the rats' nest.
dapper spire
it should be
jagged ferry
we were aware
jagged ferry
iirc they said it's because they couldn't find a way to implement one properly
dapper spire
yeah it doesn’t
visual aurora
The combat is so fluid
jagged ferry
like balance wise
wheat zinc
DUSK is surprisingly quite tame in terms of weapons
but I think that is a good thing
game feels really tight and polished
visual aurora
Like, the combat works well enough that it... doesn't need it
jagged ferry
ssg with 2+ ff totems is basically a bfg
visual aurora
mortar with 2 ff totems
cosmic urchin
freeze ray in dusk. god
visual aurora
that's the bfg
jagged ferry
i'm hoping that
,
"amulet"
thing gets thrown into the sdk
dammit now i need to find the video
visual aurora
is there a max limit to the sdk hmm
jagged ferry
oh here we go https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=brWieJDnx78
opal plover
Plasma gun
jagged ferry
basically
cosmic urchin
which level is E3M3 again
wheat zinc
City of Shadows
opal plover
City of shadows
cosmic urchin
oh okay
jagged ferry
shadow has a gun city
visual aurora
builds entire cities in Dusk
wheat zinc
in terms of how they behave
dapper spire
Dusk 2: Horrors Everywhere
cosmic urchin
seeing a map pack exploring more of that snowy realm would be cool.
opal plover
I wanna do a The thing styled map
dapper spire
yeah, we never really got an answer to why there’s a snowy part in E3M2
wheat zinc
because it's cool
visual aurora
fire and ice
dapper spire
other than that
opal plover
I mean there's not really a need for an asnwer
dapper spire
like an actual lore reason
opal plover
It's just the weather
cosmic urchin
cthulhu land
opal plover
Another dimension
cosmic urchin
hell
dapper spire
what the hell is with the bone monks
jagged ferry
it's a lovecraftian hellscape
opal plover
Probably had original good guy denizens that lived in it "The shadow sunk our city"
wheat zinc
why did Duskdude make it his mission to tear his way through a cultist city
after being captured by hillbillies
rather than going home
opal plover
Also he just fights for what's right
dapper spire
yeah
opal plover
Not matter the cost
dapper spire
he’s a good boi
opal plover
He deserved better
dapper spire
even if it means brutally murdering cults
jagged ferry
tbh i thought he was just going crazy and/or wanted that sweet cash money
cosmic urchin
that works too
opal plover
All of the above
wheat zinc
I guess the cult do have alot of treasure
dapper spire
both ideas work
jagged ferry
well the cash money one doesn't past e2m10 now that i think about it
because the end crawl for e2 is literally like "yeah imma get these dudes"
dapper spire
yeah, I don’t know why he would to another dimension just for some money
wheat zinc
I mean
jagged ferry
the "going crazy" thing still works though
dapper spire
yeah
wheat zinc
the cult has already left so much treasure lying around outside
opal plover
he still gets morale from treasure through the whole game
wheat zinc
imagine how much money they have in their own dimension
jagged ferry
@opal plover well he can still like money without it being his prime motivator
opal plover
Yeah
cosmic urchin
did anyone else get an adrenaline rush from the iron cathedral. just, what a perfect opening level.
opal plover
Yeah really good intro to the otherworldly setting
wheat zinc
where's my DUSK Codex
opal plover
Music is some of the best
dapper spire
where’s the dusk lore book
jagged ferry
dusk bible
dapper spire
oh wait that’s the comics
jagged ferry
yeah, dusk bible
dapper spire
Dusk comic #2 when?
native patio
dusk dude good, monster worshipers bad
visual aurora
tbh i feel like everything post e2m10 is just you becoming dusk dude
opal plover
With Big John
dapper spire
oh yeah it is, isn’t it?
visual aurora
like "hell, i'm this far, better keep going"
cosmic urchin
@opal plover nah i mean E3M1
opal plover
Yeah it has the hound of torment at the end
cosmic urchin
wait yeah that's blasphemy
opal plover
Also about the codex Dave thought it was a cool idea at one point
dapper spire
I mean the dusk comics are enough for me tbh
even if they don’t give that much lore
wheat zinc
I forgot
cosmic urchin
priestesses might have become commonplace fairly quickly but the intimidation factor was absolutely there when you first encounter them. that screech scared the shit out of me
wheat zinc
didn't the very first soldiers you meet in DUSK have a unique line?
dapper spire
did they?
opal plover
Mama had
wheat zinc
since they may have not been possessed soldiers yet
jagged ferry
i don't remember them having a unique line
but they might've
i wouldn't be surprised
dapper spire
yeah, they might have, but idk man
dapper spire
did they have the red eyes, because in the dusk comics, the red eyes signify that their possessed
opal plover
Yeah they all do
cosmic urchin
jagged ferry
tomato tomahto
strong tendon
tomato tornado
strong tendon
DUSKfield
visual aurora
you know
I could fully believe someone making an entire DUSK "sequel" with the Cthulhu mythos
opal plover
I mean yeah that's most likely what the sequel would focus on
visual aurora
sorta like with blood's deathwish mod iirc
strong tendon
DEATH WISH FOR DUSK
jagged ferry
dusk wish
strong tendon
cosmic urchin
blood at dusk
olive cloud
Dusk is technically part of the cthulu mythos right?
wheat zinc
the Duskiverse
olive cloud
Because of Nyarlathotep
opal plover
It is
olive cloud
So we could probably ad Dusk to the cthulu mythos on cthulu websites without people giving us shit.
Gorefield is also part of the Cthulu mythos
opal plover
What ties it
olive cloud
Idk but it would be funny🤷♂️
olive cloud
Yea well he ate the fucking universe
native patio
people talk about the lasagne but nobody mentions how huge the poo must be
the cat would be dumping 20% of its body every evening

I've heard bad things about Redneck Rampage.
rocky lichen

So it's not worth money?
opaque spindle

Yeah it's not that great
dapper spire
yeah I’ve heard a lot of not so good things about redneck rampage
vale oar
it has Boobs Gun tho
gloomy cypress
Revenge of the rednecks was absolutely bad, I hear good things about the original
dapper spire
imagine hdusk
muted berry
Hdusk is in the works
grand zodiac
oh harmonica dusk is happening
dapper spire
actually?
grand zodiac
yep
wheat zinc
what is hdusk?
muted berry
Harmonica dusk
dapper spire
oh
wheat zinc
what's a Harmonica Dusk
jagged ferry
dusk but every gun sounds like a harmonica
dapper spire
dusk but every enemy makes a harmonica sound
wheat zinc
wew
jagged ferry
so you can remake the man with a harmonica track from once upon a time in the west
dapper spire
sounds fun
worn moth
i just got dusk hope its fun
jagged ferry
it is
jagged ferry
and the game ain't over til the credits roll
worn moth
health kits dont work
dapper spire
what do you mean by “dont work”?
jagged ferry
if you have over 100 health the only health items you can pick up are potions and hallowed health
and maybe cooked viscera, i don't remember
@worn moth
worn moth
k thanks
jagged ferry
👍
reef pecan
@jagged ferry you can eat as much cooked viscera as you want but it'll never heal you past 100 hp
jagged ferry
ah ok

Cannot wait for ffdusk
paper oyster
Cant wait for Dawn
cedar mesa
i just beat DUSK, and i have nothing but thanks for the devs
i loved the game
and im super hyped for the SDK
paper oyster
You can use soap to instakill a legless dog in a box
10/10
cedar mesa
the only thing i had a gripe with were the mamas
paper oyster
I think there is only one mama. The others are called cowgirls
wheat zinc
cowgirls are your best friends in some parts
they straight up takeout everyone but you
if you play them right
jagged ferry
e3m9:
cowgirls: "i'm about to end this man's whole career"
cedar mesa
first time i used a save within the level
paper oyster
And in e3m8. They practically fight each other
wheat zinc
as long as you are strafejumping in e3m9
cedar mesa
now im wondering what the DAWN SDK will let people do?
wheat zinc
the cowgirl's explosions is going to blow up all the enemies for you
toxic elbow
lol first playthrough I saved so much
paper oyster
I hope a randomizer mod comes out 
cedar mesa
if we can make custom enemies and weapons, i'd be so happy
mild ginkgo
You will be able to, yes
You'll have pretty much full control over every aspect of the game
wheat zinc
I want to mod the melee enemies to be faster than duskdude strafejumping
mild ginkgo
LMAO that gif
toxic elbow
what is the Dawn thing?
paper oyster
Bullet speed rats 
mild ginkgo
It's a modding sdk for dusk
toxic elbow
aaaa
cedar mesa
make the rats even smaller
wheat zinc
feel like the melee enemies were not much of a threat even in cero
since you can overwhelmingly outrun them
toxic elbow
you that gif is me when I see the horrors
paper oyster
Invisible rats
cedar mesa
hunting rifle but it not only shreads wizards, but also your eardrums
wheat zinc
Hunting Rifle is one of the weapons I used the most actually
toxic elbow
the rivider shoots Rats
cedar mesa
wizards and mages but their bullets clip through walls
wheat zinc
Leathernecks but now they chuck their chainsaws at you like Spartans
toxic elbow
when rats hit you.. it kills all the rats in the entire game.. even deletes their files THE END
jagged ferry
the hunting rifle is actually one of the best guns tbh
jagged ferry
it's just a super shotgun but completely accurate
jagged ferry
the ssg is easier to use in cqc but the rifle works too yeah
toxic elbow
the SSG is for hit scan
wheat zinc
while SSG is 600 damage max
atleast Hunting rifle is one of the best weapons to deal with half the enemies in this game
Grand Wizards, Welders
you know what would be a sorta interesting difficulty modifer?
turn off friendly fire for enemies
I noticed in EP3 endless mode, the enemies tend to mostly takeout themselves
toxic elbow
I think in this single player there isnt best gun, I just use them all in the same rate and they are all as important to me depends on the situation
toxic elbow
the cigarette only kills your lungs
wheat zinc
I actually used cigar alot in Endless
toxic elbow
have you guys played DOOM 2016?
toxic elbow
really?
wheat zinc
yeah
game gave me a legit headache
and it's not the fov
because I can play DUSK at max fov for hours and not get sick
but DOOM 2016 makes me feel sick
toxic elbow
like literally?
wheat zinc
yeah
toxic elbow
ho wow
toxic elbow
I got 394 hours on the thing XD
wheat zinc
and Mick Gordon going really overboard on that guitar
toxic elbow
the weapon switching is just good and if you wont have that headache problem that you have the game just looks gorgeous
also shooting feels good- you shoot something in the legs and there goes the leg. and except the BFG that is an easy win I just love the gauss cannon. it can literally boost you in the air.
wheat zinc
I thought Dusk felt more satisfying
toxic elbow
But its a heavy game..
amm in some places yeah
Dusk movement feels 100 times more satisfying
but in doom I mush say shooting is just a bit more satisfying.
how the enemies react to the weapons and the weapon animation is just so detailed
mild ginkgo
yeah they certainly have WAY better animation and graphics for stuff like that
toxic elbow
But hey this game is about to be Doom eternals bitch
mild ginkgo
but they also had a budget that was probably 100 times higher than dusks lmao
toxic elbow
Dude dusk was programed almost by 3 people
wheat zinc
Dusk has best in industry movement
mild ginkgo
yeah, it was really mostly 1 person
i helped a little, but like, it was 90% david
more than 90
toxic elbow
Praise D for lord David
smoky sigil
I'm at E3M6 in Dusk and I'm loving it
If there's any criticism I could make, I do wish there was a map toggle like in DOOM, but it's not much of a deal
toxic elbow
what he did in homecoming deserve a Nobel prize
toxic elbow
yeah, ||the basket ball secret cranked me up||
jagged ferry
honestly i never needed an automap in dusk
the maps were made well enough to where it's not necessary
dapper spire
it doesn’t need one
toxic elbow
I never got lost I think..
smoky sigil
It's mostly because I get turned around a lot
mild ginkgo
might be a good mod yeah
muted jolt
Good nigth big john
cedar mesa
so when will we see dawn?
jagged ferry
about 5:30-6 am, i'd say
cedar mesa
like, today
jagged ferry

https://twitter.com/DUSKdev/status/1139938213303398400 @thorn trout several problems i discovered while working on similar shader - 1 - if you are not doing it as render texture bypass - goddamn thing samples transitional pixels no matter what you do. (even when antialiasing is off...unless they fixed that)
2. Thanks to return to obra dinn we know that you need to scroll the dithering table alongside the x/y rotations of camera so that dither noise doesn't distract so much
i'll post pictures at #general-art

If it's not any trouble, what is the progress on the DUSK sdk? I'm not asking when it will come I am only asking how much progress has been made.
tardy slate
was replaying dusk and only now noticed - if you have over 100 morale thanks to coins - sleeping will remove everything you had over 100
dapper spire
really?
tardy slate
yep
dapper spire
I never really slept in the beds lmao
tardy slate
where do i submit an official complaint about losing my morale to a bug >:(
also e1m2 in the big house
second floor
dapper spire
oh yeah
dapper spire

tardy slate
i mean that's why i'm sayin it here
oh well i should have looked through message history first
it's known
shucks
oh well
wheat zinc
there are a few beds in Episode 3
you can even somehow have a good night rest when the bed is upside down
thorn trout
@crimson folio since I'm a scrub that couldn't figure out how to do proper low res dithering in Amplify I just went with a plugin
thorn trout
where do i submit an official complaint about losing my morale to a bug >:( oversleeping is bad for you!
dapper spire
but sleeping feel good
mild ginkgo
yeah its been in the game forever, and we've known about it forever
but i think we literally decided it was oversleeping
dapper spire
makes sense
mild ginkgo
we discovered it before the public ever had a build
mild ginkgo
thats my estimation of it lol
thorn trout
so David said “eh, fuck it, it’s oversleeping” essentially lol
dapper spire
lmao
thorn trout
I think it was actually Dave who came up with that though
dapper spire
interesting
rough ivy
dusk has no bugs everything is a feature
dapper spire
“It’s a feature” -David “Dusk Dev” Szymanski
not sure if I spelt that last name right
wheat zinc
is the leathernecks clipping through ceilings a feature too in E3M8?
dapper spire
yeah, they’re actually ghosts
mild ginkgo
:^))))
simple pilot
is the breaking shell ammo cap a feature?
mild ginkgo
i fixed that but we took it out because dave didnt like it
but it might return in the next patch
dapper spire
breaking the shell ammo cap is a feature because it doesn’t matter how much ammo you have
wheat zinc
the ammo cap or the ethereal lethernecks?
mild ginkgo
the ethereal leathernecks
dapper spire
can’t wait for them to return
rough ivy
breaking shell ammo cap?
mild ginkgo
if you go to 46-50 ammo, and pick up an 1887 youll go over the ammo cap to 51-55 ammo
dapper spire
aw that’s cool

Even the leathernecks
Dusk but all the players hitscan weapons are projectiles
jagged ferry
i mean
if they were really fast projectiles
that could actually work
but then why make them projectiles
🤔
mild chasm
Nah I think it'd work even if they moved fairly slowly
crimson folio
I just know if feels good when I play AD
mild chasm
enemies that move particularly fast are more melee oriented and thus run straight at the player
so those aren't an issue really

DUSK 3 will be a soft-reboot set in the town of DUSK in very claustrophobic areas of the facilities, starting shortly before the cultists uncover the stones. You play as John "Duskdude" Marine who just transferred to the facilities for his first assignment.
You are tasked to track down a rogue scientist in the facility who's been missing for days. As you find him you figure out he was attempting to warn everybody, but you are too late, as he turns into a big-john. Now you must schute your way out of the facility.
The engine has been updated as well to support heavy stencil shading
violet canopy
Sweet yeah it a super fun game
just wondering if multiplayer is very populated. It does show any servers
flat juniper
it's not really constantly populated-- usually you can get some people if you use #lfg-signup and use #454345257027502082
also frag nights are fairly common

Finally got around to beating episode 1 with duskmare intruder instead of playing the other 5 episode of amid evil like I should be doing
flat juniper
there was one last night
lusty fable
Way more difficult than I thought It would be
In map 5 I actually had to use a lot of stealth, I silently bashed the cultists that spawn when you get the hunter rifle brains in, until the lat one noticed me and I bashed him with my rifle to death
balmy sluice
now time to do ep 2 👀
lusty fable
Already did the first map
The second d and third wave of enemies kicked my ass but this is forcing me to do a lot more side bhoppping now that I have to mainly deal with the soldiers
And it's fun, makes me feel like a pro and stuff

its a great challenge for sure

what bodyblocking
wheat zinc
when you do like sr
you don't tend to kill much if at all
you just run past everything
and sometimes an enemy might bodyblock
stopping you
could shoot them out of the way but the damage has been done

ugh e1m1 door leatherneck is a good example of that
so random
cant even shoot him out of the way because no weapons

but sweet
proven bobcat
true
I might not be remembering it to its fullest since I can beat it in <11 seconds lmao
tardy slate
i know this isnt very popular but i like E1 more than the other episodes
does anyone else like E1 over the others?
proven bobcat
I have a lot of trouble picking my favorite or least favorite episode tbh
they all have levels that are top tier to me
tardy slate
yeah all episode have great levels but
this is going to be weird but i like the simplicity of E1
tardy slate
and the style of it
lol
i got lost in e2 a lot and e3 altough has great gameplay but some levels felt too long
proven bobcat
See that's why I have trouble figuring out my favorite though, it's almost like the episodes had a theme. 1 was simple, 2 was like puzzles almost, and 3 was just long complex and crazy levels
solar olive
e1 is a very well crafted introduction to the game...
tardy slate
2 was also spooky
and even after the introduction - learning and perfecting e1 (for example speedrunning) is amazing
wheat zinc
E1 is very good for setting the tone
and introducing players
pretty much the Tutorial Episode
dapper spire
it is the first episode after all
wheat zinc
Episode 2 is "Ok you better know what you are doing, because we just sent the entire army on you from the start and you only have a pistol"

Episode 3 goes fucking crazy

and that’s why Ep3 is my favorite
starts out calm

opal plover
Yeah hitboxes can get fucky at a point blank range
Especially frustrating if you try to block a projectile at a point blank range

crimson folio
Like around an hour
Senpai noticed me blushes
fingerbones is less than an hour
I already played that
I wanna play the other ones tho
thorn trout
yeah they can all be completed in around an hour
They'll be going on sale for the summer sale @crimson folio so I'd wait till then if you're thinking of picking them up
crimson folio
That’s what I was planning to do
blissful mesa
Im gonna grab fingerbones. Whole lotta people telling me its good

limber adder
I had to take a break from DUSK
I kept dying to cowgirls
and screaming obscenities at my PC
crimson folio
what level u at
limber adder
some weird ass sky factory
smoky sigil
Yeah Cowgirls are rough
dapper spire
oh neobabel?
limber adder
yea i think so
smoky sigil
Mortar/Riveter is best
limber adder
H-DUSK, but the character models arent changed
crimson folio
HDUSK but he just replaced all the enemies with the sprites from HDOOM
dapper spire
hot
limber adder
HDUSK but its male cultists fucking dusk dude, making evreyone extremely uncomfortable.
winged goblet
On steam the ae+dusk bundle is 10th by relevance in the shooter, first person shooter category
I know I already wrote this in the ae group but I really wanted to signal this
crimson folio
I'll bet that one of the twists of NG+ in Dusk is that Cowgirls are more annoying to deal with.
spare cobalt
vast tangle
More Horror jumpscares, as well

I just wanna say I hope this retrofps revival continues
and that DUSK is fucking awesome and I convinced all my friends to get it
plain shard
just bought the game
and I guess I should mention that the reason I now own this game is because of Civvie's beneath dusk series.
cosmic urchin
i mean, that's me with Blood so there is no guilt in that. 
plain shard
I saw screenshots that made it seem like a quake clone with some blood and redneck rampage influences. I figured it might be cool to check out someday, but I wasn't in any rush.
then on a lark I watched civvie's video and he literally said almost exactly what I was thinking verbatim in his first video and implied that the game knows these expectations so it can subvert and exceed them later - that made me seriously consider it.
jagged ferry
he wasn't wrong
plain shard
yeah i watched the other videos on after that I was like "dang, this game actually looks like it rules".
smoky sigil
It does
plain shard
hrm, this game doesn't play nicely with xrandr --scale - no big deal, most games don't, and I can just set it to default, but perhaps something to look at.
jagged ferry
what does that even do
plain shard
it changes X's DPI, zooming everything in (or out). X has had DPI-changing machinery in it for a long time, actually.
My vision is terrible, so text is really small to my eyes on 1920x1200 resolution, so I usually bump the DPI. On Windows I use 1.5x DPI, and on Linux I use xrandr --output DVI-D-0 --scale 0.7x0.7.
(1.0x1.0 is default)
jagged ferry
oh
plain shard
I mean as far as problems go, it's a really small one, and most Windows apps don't even deal with DPI correctly either.
Okay I guess I'm also notocing some weird glitchy macroblocky-looking stuff on 2D screens like the "Press enter to go to the next level" screen, but whatever.
I gotta ask - if I die, do I get taken to the beginning of the level with all the gear I had?
that's a ZDoom-ism, but I didn't notice any autosaves in the menu
muted berry
You go back to the most recent checkpoint with all the stuff you had at that checkpoint.
plain shard
Hrm, also, for some reason when i create a save it says "OLD SAVE NO IMAGE MAY NOT WORK"
....until I select another savegame and select the original one again, then the screenshot appears.
muted berry
Do you have a really old save somewhere in all your saves?
jagged ferry
it happens sometimes
muted berry
Eh, like saves said, sometimes happens.
plain shard
can I reload the laast checkpoint from the menu?
mild ginkgo
so
checkpoints only occur at the start of a level
so you can go to level select and select the last level you were on
you unlock levels to select when you beat them naturally
but saving is your friend, i would quicksave
muted berry
I mapped quicksave to q and quickload to z.
I was mistakenly remembering my habitual quick saves as checkpoints.
I am big dumb.
plain shard
Oh I get it now.
Also man I keep using the arrow keys on the menu expecting them to work. 😛
Like, I get why they don't, but for some reason I use the keyboard arrow keys and the mouse interchangibly on oldschool FPS menus. I guess that's a compliment.
Wait, you can melee-start a map? Oh man that's a good inclusion.
Oh man this game is good.
chilly minnow
:)
smoky sigil
@plain shard It gives the "Old image" thing every time you make a new save for whatever reason, but the saves work afterwards
plain shard
Yeah I figured that out. I'm just "bug guy".
plain shard
I was a bit navigaltionally challenged on E1M5 - couldn't find the red door to save my life
proven bobcat
yeah sometimes it's a bit of a puzzle to find where you need to go
fleet flame
So would anyone know why the game stutters if I cap it to 60 fps but runs pretty smooth with barely noticeable hiccups on the default 144 fps?
visual aurora
do you have a 144hz monitor
mild ginkgo
maybe try vsyncing it if youre going to 60
certainly havent heard of that problem before though
tacit tangle
vsync is laggy garbage on almost any game don't @ me
and if you have 144hz you have no reason to run 60fps
wheat zinc
I run uncapped for the placebo effect
does DUSK have any framerate dependent interactions?
grand zodiac
apparently jumping
wheat zinc
oh, howso?
grand zodiac
idk, i asked why sometimes you can jump up some ledges and other times not, and 500_pts said it depends on when a framerate renders or something
mild ginkgo
wha
grand zodiac
jagged ferry
Wack.
tardy slate
Quack.
mild ginkgo
so
thats alternating frames, not framerate dependent per se
and its specific to collision, not the player movement
so height is always consistent
mild ginkgo
but specifically your collision can behave slightly differently depending on which frame
jagged ferry
that's double Wack.
wheat zinc
seems like DUSK handles variable framerate alot better than umm
mild ginkgo
im not intimately familiar with dooms systems, but i assume it has some similar quirks
wheat zinc
AE (I love AE but sorry)
mild ginkgo
yes it does
ae has the weapon frame issues
theyre gonna look at fixing that
but it does exist
dusk handles variable frames pretty well because we doubled down on it
for one, our target framerate in development was 144
which, is obviously higher than most games are targeted for
wheat zinc
DUSK almost makes me want to get an ultra high refresh monitor
wheat zinc
smoother than reality
mild ginkgo
lol
grand zodiac
smh why is it not made for 30 hz with issues happening when you unlock it?
refunding
wheat zinc
DUSK at 30hz sounds like a war crime

Just recommended Dusk to a friend that doesn't play fps game. And he might get it. I fell proud of myself
crimson folio
sell me on DUSK, go.
jagged ferry
you can collapse the canadian mafia with a double barrel shotgun
crimson folio
but is it REALLY worth it when I own Blood?
jagged ferry
yes
because unlike blood it won't make you want to jump off the nearest highway exit directly into oncoming traffic
except debatably on duskmare
crimson folio
except Blood is actually amazing
jagged ferry
amazing but absolutely brutal
jagged ferry
dusk is complete (mostly, there's still the sdk and such)
mild ginkgo
hey, take your pick, maximum action is VERY early
but it has workshop already
dusk is a complete game, but it has workshop on the way
crimson folio
workshop is nice, i fuckin wish Mordhau had it holy shit
mild ginkgo
also blood and dusk are very different games lol
crimson folio
I can't recall another game that feels like Blood, other than this REALLY shitty christian cloneware game i played when i was a kid
hell i'll get Dusk
mild ginkgo
hey man, up to you
its a slow start, but i suggest you stick around through episode 3
and hey, if you dont like it, you can always refund 
crimson folio
games like this are my jam, doubt i'd refund it unless it was straight up broken
toxic elbow
I heard DUSK is a mobile game difficult compared to BLOOD
mild ginkgo
blood is a very very hard game yeah
toxic elbow
I think DUSK is the hardest in ep. 2
toxic elbow
I played recently CERIMIADO on DUSK the first time...
toxic elbow
and even tho is its a lot harder
you rearly die in ep. 1
Ill probably cry meself in 2
toxic elbow
I was really angry at the game at (PUSSY) medium difficulty the first time..
but then played ep. 3 and it was amazing
strong tendon
now i want CERIMIADO difficulty in Dusk
