Technically you can already use it. It's just at a very early stage in development. You can opt into the beta if you wish.

to be very clear about it, the old builds are simply not compatible with the nintendo switch straight up
so they will never be ported to that platform
even if we wanted to, we do not have the source code for most of the old stuff anymore, and therefore cannot compile ARM compatible builds
tawny igloo
I don't think it needs a buff lol, the games balanced as much as it can be
I do think though the uneven shooting of the older version was cool as a concept

grab the goodies from the store page first, they're a free dlc
then tick the checkbox on the "manage my dlcs" thing
then go in the local files and find the "goodies" folder

that's the thing I can't get it. If I press download steam just starts dusk without asking anything

just steams really shitty systems
gotta restart steam for some updates to actually start downloading
it shows the goodies as an entity and a DLC for Dusk but when you click on dusk it isnt shown in the dlc tab unless you restart, just the usual steam jank
after verifiying my dusk files, restarting steam, uninstalling and reinstalling dusk and restarting steam again, i think the goodies are currently getting installed

it should be a big 3 gig update

also when can we expect to get the sawblade cut of dusk?
tardy slate
Could you guys PLEASE fix this build? It's very customer un-friendly how u guys push out this unfinished broken stuff :/ .
I'd like to file a complain to your CEO, I feel like I've been robbed. This is seriously unacceptable. I have to wait 10 SECONDS TO SAVE? Wow. Absolutely ridiculous. And there isn't even a MENU in some of these!!! Where are the settings, huh???
Can't even make the assault rifle fire right...

look at the bright side of things, atleast your not techland
tardy slate
And worst of all, I hear my laptop fans seriously spin up while playing!
polar cobalt
putting like the original unedited versions of some of their old games on steam that actually dont work lmao
tardy slate
You guys should learn color theory before making games, honestly.

It's so funny that some people reviewed the goodies negatively
One of the negative reviews was "unexpected DLC"
My fucking sides
polar cobalt
tried to play the original call of juarez game on steam and it took literally a minute to autosave
tardy slate
wait really? lemme go read some bad reviews
polar cobalt
the game looked worse than half life 1 and ran worse than it too
yea like cant really blame some of the reviews if they say its not there, not their fault steam is janky as fuck
tardy slate
i guess the second bad review is the guys having problems actually finding the content
but still is that really worth putting out a bad review over
it's free and the dev responded
prisma halo
You'd be surprised how many bullshit bad reviews we see
People review negatively just to ask for tech support
because forums are too hard to use I guess
or they negatively review because third party software doesn't work
tardy slate
well that's... an interesting way of seeing things huh
guys
guys why did you abandon the game
:(
prisma halo
lmao
"This finished game doesn't have features that were never promised for launch and are actively talked about"
"no modding" is also blatantly false smh

That looks like it was posted right before the SDK release

this is super funny to go over

im gonna have to refund my copy of dusk and never buy or play any new blood games ever again, my reasoning is simple

I haven't any reviews for this game.

in one of the test versions of the game this door was fucked up

Or any meme reviews.
tardy slate
i love the guy saying "this game kinda sucks :/ play hedon instead" and immediately plugs his twitch, discord AND HIS OTHER STEAM REVIEWS

i wish i knew about dusk beforehand, i'd be all over this immediately
joined the party somewhere right after the EP3 release
when did uhh
public development??? start
polar cobalt
is this.. hentai? hehehe
tardy slate
when an actual team was present
prisma halo
The first announcement of the game was david's first look at dusk video, afaik
after that it was david's blog where he included a build
two actually
After that it was the new blood announcement trailer
I think there was an older video that showed off dusk but it looks like it's gone now
it was like a highlight reel of stuff that was coming
polar cobalt
can we commission Stephan Weyte to say whatever we want?
prisma halo
no but it's probably the reason it still exists lol
though you could say NB as it is today formed because of dusk
considering how many people joined NB because of it
tardy slate
when did E1 go into early access?
polar cobalt
nah newblood was created because of their hit extremely massively played and popular game, unfortunate spaceman right?
tardy slate
this is not a test im just curious
prisma halo
I'm pretty sure EA started with episode 2 actually
unless I'm misremembering
Dusk released into early access on January 11, 2018, containing both DuskWorld and the first two episodes of the singleplayer campaign.
Thanks Wikipedia
tardy slate
pretty cool how it's only been 2 years between david's vid and early access
crazy to see how much changed in that short period
Oh wow
i guess i wasnt THAT late
cant remember how i found out about dusk
oh right i heard a russian youtuber say "this cool game just came out, it's like a retro-style shooter" and went to buy it right there and then
crimson folio
I found out about dusk because of funy penguin man.
tardy slate
oh wow i started whining about the SDK after like 5-6 months of playing the game
crimson folio
What's SDK?
tardy slate
software development kit
i dont think that fits the description of what it currently is lol
but im no expert
prisma halo
Yeah "SDK" is just a nice short term to use
In reality it's just a version of the game that supports mods
It's funny to see it referred to as DAWN still sometimes, I retired that name eons ago
tardy slate
Supports Dandy Kmods
tardy slate
oh i still remember that one screenshot of a DAWN menu
prisma halo
Yeah that was back before it was an official thing
tardy slate
i thought it would stay and kept looking around for it when the sdk dropped
prisma halo
It was a fan patch thing I made
polar cobalt
oh thats what sdk means
prisma halo
prisma halo
I see people say "source development kit" but it's not, it's software development kit
polar cobalt
in my head i was thinking there was someone on the dev team named kyle that everyone hated
mild ginkgo
i think i might still have that version archived somewhere
prisma halo
I just downloaded it from here to take that screenshot lol
search dawn from me and sort by old

this fuckin thing still haunts me

UPM
mild ginkgo
that was it
prisma halo
honestly though these days BepInEx is the way to go
UPM solved a problem that only really exists on mobile
mild ginkgo
i preferred the way UPM worked
prisma halo
and only works when IL2CPP is gone
mild ginkgo
but yeah bepin is far more advanced at this point
mild ginkgo
still a chance
tardy slate
Dusk DusK
mild ginkgo
given its still an alpha most people dont know about, you still can definitely rename it

potentially
tardy slate
and then everyone keeps calling it the sdk anyway

the level before the cutty mines and the cutty mines always caused me problems
id always miss the door before cutty mines, never could find them in it
oh thsts when i thought fork maidens were scary soo

Nevermind, it's actually kinda easy

Im in the brainlet minority of people who vastly prefer E1 over others
My biggest gripe with E3 was the level length, and most E2 levels i found forgettable kinda
But maaaan E1
Holy fuck
Shit's a masterpiece
I mean E2 has great gameplay, and subversive setpieces, just like E3
But im talking more about general feel i guess
Subjective stuff

starts level with 200 health after ripping meathooks off his back
he is.

Love how new blood games go " we will make an simple to understand but complex combat system " and then go "million damage to soap cause funny"

Who says he got impaled? Maybe he was about to

You see, Dusk Dude is worthy.
crimson folio
Who says he got impaled? Maybe he was about to
the noise at the start of the level
zealous hatch
Ah okay
west sedge
Ho did dusk dude survive the meat hook
depends where it was inserted
i’m sure I don’t have to explain that logic
zealous hatch
Into his toe
warm bloom
Yeah i just assumed they hooked him where he would live
Judging by the fact they brought three leathernecks down there to kill him, they knew he'd survive the hooks i reckon
Porbably wanting to fuck with him/torture him a bit
grave saddle
Dusk Dude was meant to be a sacrifice, the hooks were never going to kill him.
Unless, of course, the cult was that incompetent.
lament wharf
... I mean, speaking as a medic, he's not surviving meathook impalement without serious treatment, probably surgery.
But speaking as a shooter aficionado, he's just going to walk it off.
warm bloom
Unless, of course, the cult was that incompetent.
I mean, have you seen the intelligence of the average cult member? Not very bright.
grave saddle
The joke is that the hooks crippled him.
And that's why he only has two hundred health.
lament wharf
Let's not forget that he doesn't even take falling damage. His flashlight does, but not him.
Just Wiley E Coyotes any cliff.
warm bloom
... I mean, speaking as a medic, he's not surviving meathook impalement without ...
Ah, you work in the medical fiekd? Cohkd you possibly tell us more about the possible hooking then, medically? Like coukd they hang him in a way that he would survive, for example?
lament wharf
Sure, for a while.
west sedge
did it hit a major artery? dead
lament wharf
Just gotta not puncture the lungs while hooking under his collarbones.
west sedge
end of story
lament wharf
Still going to die eventually without major treatment.
grave saddle
Does a medkit count?
grave saddle
Joke.
lament wharf
Would be really tricky though, there's some major blood vessels and such in those areas.
... of course, I am never expecting any kind of medical realism out of games, ever.
grave saddle
The best medical realism is in Far Cry.
warm bloom
So youd have to navigate the lungs and the major vessels then eh? Damn. He lucky. Also yeah its a game lol, hes gonna be fine,still just curious.
lament wharf
You mean the game where a Hawaiian shirt makes you close to invulnerable and you mutate?

Then you wouldn't know.

She means far cry 2
west sedge
far cry is literally “me on my way to pull a bullet out of my arm because I just got bitten by a cougar”
zealous hatch

lament wharf
The hawaiian shirt is just the lore behind why enemies can spot you from eight miles away through foliage. You can't convince me otherwise.
zealous hatch
Yes.

Yes, that is why.

I've dabbled a bit in Æ, I'll admit.
warm bloom
Actually, question yall, would you consider dusk to actuslly be a horror game on top of retro fps. I know some do, I personally consider it as much a horror game as an fps.
crimson folio
I'd say it's a horror fps.
warm bloom
I see what you did there
lament wharf
Sort of? Depends on how you define horror games. If you just need scary elements, then sure, but then that makes Minecraft a horror game. If we're talking gameplay elements, it probably doesn't count since everything scary can be summarily dealt with by judicious use of SSG.
grave saddle
Minecraft is undoubtedly a horror game.
lament wharf
But yeah, I'd say it has horror elements.
grave saddle
Also, you can't super shotgun that feeling of dread E3M4 gives you.
lament wharf
It just depends on whether or not you're talking game mechanically or not, which some purists probably would.
warm bloom
I guess i do mean more in atmosphere, aesthetics, and design of the levels and enemies and such. Because yes you can ssg, but sometimes its legit terrifying atmosphere wise and no amount of shotgun makes you feel any better.
lament wharf
Shotgun always makes me feel better.
It's how I can cope with horror games. Give me a shotgun.
lament wharf
FEAR, Resident Evil etc. Just give me a way to make the bad go away and I'm gucci.
But the 'horror games' like Alien Isolation or others where you can't actually fight the horror stuff, I can't deal. Need my SSG Copium.
crimson folio
I've honestly lost my interest in horror games now.
Most of the horror games are just haha scream pls be scared
some are good.
lament wharf
... it occurs to me that basically my kind of horror games is where you're the scariest thing around.
warm bloom
Most of the horror games are just haha scream pls be scared
walking sims intensify
west sedge
Most of the horror games are just haha scream pls be scared
common assumption about horror which is ultimately flawed through either lack of effort or lack of research
lament wharf
Or yes, certain 'walking simulators' where it's a lot more about dread and story than actual horror gameplay.
crimson folio
What's walking sims?
warm bloom
@crimson folio amnesia, outlast, SOMA, stuff like that
lament wharf
Basically "games" devoid of much gameplay. You just explore areas and get story revelations.
west sedge
there is a myriad of horror games out there which are actually scary and don’t rely on “oh no my horror game isn’t scary what will I do? Oh I know i’ll just add random scary music and loud as fuck sounds when you least expect it”
warm bloom
And do puzzles

Thats your capabilities
west sedge
I feel like a lot of people don’t realize how important your “””””gaming atmosphere””””” is
crimson folio
Yeah.
west sedge
what I mean by that is uh
grave saddle
This is why I call Minecraft a horror game.
lament wharf
Different games hit people differently a lot too. Subnautica scared the piss out of a friend of mine, to the point where she screamed regularly, while to me I was just never scared.
west sedge
if you’re playing a horror game in a well lit room that’s bright and all that it’s most likely not going to be scary
grave saddle
It outs you into that atmosphere abruptly.
lament wharf
Except that one time the game bugged and spawned a ghost leviathan where it absolutely shouldn't be.
west sedge
but if you play it in a dark room with headphones on when everything is silent

I mean, I think jumpscares do have a place in horror, but for the last whike theyve been severely overused
lament wharf
It's a bit unnerving I'll grant you. Roars of unknown things in the distance and constantly on edge about air supply etc.
west sedge
yes they have a purpose but it’s a dead horse
lament wharf
I quite loved Subnautica, but it was never as 'horror' as some people found it, to me.
warm bloom
yes they have a purpose but it’s a dead horse
Aye, we need to give them a rest for a while lol. Way, way overused.
west sedge
you know what’s an interesting set of horror games

Basically being 100% safe all the time if you just hugged some terrain feature and never stopped moving made it comfy to me.

Fuck jumpscares.

Civvie made a good point about Dusk though. "Shitty graphics", i.e. Dusk's low-poly aesthetic, really lends itself well to eldritch horror.

By the way, the Dead Space games don't count as horror and I'll fight anyone on this subject. It started off promising, then it just immediately blew its load having the baddie scream in your face while beautifully lit and detailed, and everything from there to the end of the third game is just brightly lit heavily telegraphed bads to kill.
There's zero use of imagination or atmosphere to me.
Fantastic setting, great potential, lovely story and all... and not a horror game.
warm bloom
See can i just say, i think that wave of lets play horror games, slender, fnaf, those have really good concepts, but very poor execution, imo. Like a slenderman game could be scary if it was less so jumpscares and sp00ks and moreso creeping dread, the feeling of being watched and hunted, light cosmic horror elements, and suspense payoff that isnt just "boo"
@west sedge what think on this
steady hull
The whole wave of Slenderman and FNAF games literaly created an entire genre of games called "Jumpscare Horror"
It's so cheap and overdone it gets it's own article on wikipedia
atomic bronze
i honestly don't have a problem with jumpscares at all if they're good
problem with fnaf is they become repetitive and predictable
there's a certain jumpscare in the game Visage that's amazing
steady hull
Horror takes skill and atmosphere, just adding in a screamer isn't gonna do anything other than pissing me off and ringing my eardrums
warm bloom
Im aware, and agree its cheap, and overdone, im just saying, the concepts behind those games couldve been executed in an interesting way @steady hull
But weren't
lament dawn
i always get so much ping in duskworld
desert oak
its not like videogames invented jumpscares, and even those you mentioned have some sort of horror vibe
steady hull
I do love the Resident Evil franchise, always finding interesting ways to scare you
lapis widget
Atmosphere > jump scares
atomic bronze
go to 40:45
that's how you do a great jumpscare imo
actually 40:35 for a better experience
steady hull
Atmosphere > jump scares
Some games get both. Resident Evil Remake and 7 manage to both have their cake and eat it.
lapis widget
Jump scares are fine,but if your entire game is just that it’s gonna get old quick
steady hull
I also loved House Beneviento, but that one was a scary ride , not really a gamey section
atomic bronze
the whole "jumpscare bad atmosphere good" argument has sorta become an echo chamber so i do appreciate when games get creative with the jumpscares while not ditching atmosphere
crimson folio
Hope it's okay to share this sweet unused tune btw

Gotta have a good mix of both
Have good atmosphere that leads to unsuspecting jump scares

DUSK did an amazing job for it

It does have scary moments
lament wharf
FEAR is another game with good atmosphere and jumpscares.
mild ginkgo
FEAR is god tier

... albeit some of the triggers are just location based, not taking where you're looking into account, so you might get a jumpscare audio effect while admiring a rather nice potted plant.

You can emulate this removed feature by shaking your hands as you fire.

shooting the crossbow should make the controller fly out of your hand imo
