First playthrough shenanigans (no soilers please) (all scugs complete)

[undone badge]

sorry if i didnt put the correct tag

[green finch]

You don't have to use any fancy moves to finish the game but if you feel like discovering something try experimenting in arena

[undone badge]

ty

oh and do you have any general tip for the game? ive been dying a lot recently

[green finch]

Don't be afraid of dying but take note on what killed you and try avoiding it the next cycle. If you can survive in a location consistently it's a good time to move on to the next one

[undone badge]

oh i guess i should stay more at garbage waste then

i keep dying to either killing myself with a red grenade thing on accident or the long legs thing

[runic ivy]

Be attentive— if you accidentally do something cool, see if you can figure out what caused it.

Often there are clues and things if you know what you’re looking for

Eg. Often in video games, If a creature roars, it’s about to attack.
Rain World takes these “cues” to the next level, and there are a LOT of them… but the game doesn’t have a tutorial that teaches them to you. It’s up to the player to figure them out

[undone badge]

Tysm sorry i was away

So i guess those weapon holding animals in garbage dump only attack when you dont have a pearl with you

Im still trying to figure out that yellow creature that follows me

So far i think the slug cat head means its a new area i can get to, the line im not sure but i think its spear needed, idk what other ones there are that arent easy to understand

I like how the game is a fine line between frusterating and extremely fun

[undone badge]

woah i learned how to dash ty

[green finch]

Yo nice! have fun with your new trick!

[undone badge]

WOAH WHAT

YOU CAN GO FROM A ROLL INTO A LONG JUMP

THIS IS SO HELPFUL

i guess just not being under stress while playing the game does help you learn more

[green finch]

Just keep trying to do it during your playthroughs! It will become a second nature to you in no time

[undone badge]

Its not easy with so many enemies nearby (or after knowing you can get hit by an off screen spear)

i somehow did a high jump thing huh

it had a sound effect so its probably something

and you cant long jump after a roll while holding an item nvm

idk if this is gonna be useful for anything

[undone badge]

i cant get the hang of this its really confusing

[green finch]

More useful than you can imagine

[undone badge]

oh alr

oh thats good to know

i am DEADLY now!!

[green finch]

Violence!

[undone badge]

woo!! violence

woah what new paths and a new thing up there

im unsure if this new area is easier or harder than garbage

[green finch]

Never know until you travel

[undone badge]

i have and its the reason im stuck in the garbage waste

so i guess its harder or it just requires skills i dont have yet

im already back at not being able to enter

[green finch]

There are always multiple ways around. If you don't feel like going there you could always go another way

[undone badge]

rip yellow pointer thingie

[undone badge]

id probably have to get all the way back to the industrial place then

or just go the other way in waste to a possibly harder area

the problem with going to the other side of garbage waste though is those scary enemies

this just got even more confusing 😭

this is the thing that kills me every time

those red things are like quadrupled here

[green finch]

The only thing you could do in this situation is to try wiggling around so they can't catch you. You could also use some items to your advantage. Like even throwing a rock should shoo them away a bit

[undone badge]

oh ty

[undone badge]

First playthrough deaths. findings and more (no spoilers pls)

[undone badge]

im trying to figure out what things on the map mean rn

ive once seen some weird circled X on it, blue flashes im guessing are enemies or birds?

[green finch]

try going there and see what it is you should notice the pattern

[undone badge]

that was a few days ago but i believe it was a yellow flower

i havent seen one of those in a while

[undone badge]

oh cool you get momentum when getting out of water

i got a sandbox item for tha

sick now im in the new area

the suffering

[green finch]

congrats!

[undone badge]

yeah this area is definitely harder than garbage waste

food is seperated by large areas of really deadly rooms

even though its before it

[undone badge]

i cant wait to unlock my 1st new character, idk when it happens but it would be pretty neat

[undone badge]

aw man i couldnt get the spear in the wall :(

[undone badge]

i wonder how close or how far that is

[undone badge]

slugcat shakes violently when out of breath 😭

yay i finally got a spear there

oh you can change what hand you use to hold an item with double shift

idk how im supposed to get out of here though i cant shoot up (i think?)

ive died like 20x to that thing

i just hit the grenade on one of those guys and killed them wow

i didnt think that would be possible

[undone badge]

going around that was so much easier 😭

haha

violence!!!!

the monk goes up when i kill but it also doesnt?? this is confusing huh

yeah i think im ready for a new area

[green finch]

nice progress

[undone badge]

ye :3

dangit, its not even a new area

[green finch]

hope you liked your little journey nonetheless

[undone badge]

im going back anyway because i barely explored outskirts

i got like 3 new sandbox items from just the 1st 3 rooms

one of the crocodile things was hiding right next to the hybernation area and snatched me 😭

i just withnessed 3 enemies kill eachother

i dont think that counts as my kill tho right?

yeah it didnt

i played for like 3 hours straight thats enough for now 😭

[undone badge]

btw do any of you mind sending me the vanilla "click to start" screen when you enter the game? mine is the downpour one so ive never seen the vanilla one

i dont want to search for it myself for obvious reasons

[undone badge]

like the one title screen thing with the green slugcat, but its vanilla variant

[green finch]

it's always the downpour one for me even if I turn off msc

[undone badge]

rip

ig i can look for it once im comfortable looking for it

i still have no idea what the yellow flower does except for putting a barrier around your rank? level? the bottom left thing

so it probably prevents a loss??

damn the yellow pointer thing started projecting things again

[undone badge]

IT DID MEAN THAT!!!

and it spawns near where i died,

rainbow :3

now im being pointed to a "slug" again

the last time i went to that same slugcat head it sent me to garbage waste so its probably that

oh nvm im in industrial

ok i think i didnt explore garbage waste enough for sure so im gonna have to go back there but with more skill

i ate nothing except that popcorn thing this time and i got monk progress.. i guess its pacifist only?

[green finch]

[undone badge]

im almost at 100!!

just found out those fake vines dont attack crocodiles...

[still belfry]

[undone badge]

i think i may be near a new area too??

😭

i casually almost got killed by a dead body

[still belfry]

I love that hiding spot

[undone badge]

well i know what im dying to now

[still belfry]

It always works

[undone badge]

thats the 1st time being at that hiding spot

[still belfry]

Yeah better try to find shelter fast

[undone badge]

yea

that part of the map was really far from my shelter

but ill be quicker now (hopefully)

[undone badge]

bruh im not even watching rain world on yt and its starting to slowly recommend me them

luckily no spoilers so far (i dont watch them or click them)

accidentally scrolled down 1 and now i know an enemy name oh well

i guess they arent crocodiles

[green finch]

[undone badge]

lol

[runic ivy]

I hate those things, except for when something else gets stuck in it lol

[undone badge]

yeah thats funny

[undone badge]

every enemy i try to kill runs away :(

fair move

:(

wait what

i heard a sound when i was in the mouth of one of the enemies and got out

like a high pitched noise like i did something

maybe its a sandbox only? idk

alr i learned how to kill these lizards now yay

you just aim at the back instead and if its purple you can just lur it on a rope and aim to the side

ig they can also die of bleeding wow

brutal

[undone badge]

the enemies just flee even after just 1 hit :( i can rarely get the kill

idk what i was expecting to happen at 100 lol

um

i guess time to fall off a bridge!!

double kill!

they just cant learn...

woah woah what new paths????

dragon slayer has colors the same as the lizards i killed

so its probably that

time to go back to garbage waste 😭

time to survive the black and orange thing with long arms....

im in trouble.

they REALLY like camping the area i have to go

I THOUGHT IT WAS ALREADY BAD ENOUGH 😭

im at such a big risk of rain

theres 4 here and the next shelter is kinda far

[undone badge]

all i can do is just hide, wait, run, wait, hide

im still yet to figure out the yellow pointer things definition of "slugcat"...

holding down space in water is not a good idea if you want to keep your breath :Sob:

[storm pebble]

Mood

[storm pebble]

Thats call swim boost penalty and i too found that out like, yesterday

After Drowning in the same spot twice LOL

[undone badge]

lol

[storm pebble]

learn it the hard way, u know

[undone badge]

im dying so much in garbage waste

[green finch]

With each death you are becoming stronger

[undone badge]

VI O LENCE

[undone badge]

yes

and now i know you dont hold the pearl in your hand to allow myself to pass

you throw it to them 😭

i wonder how many kills i got

it shows 0??

oh cool now i know they are called scavengers

now im past garbage waste (sorta) and yellow pointer thing is showing imagery again

hold uppp

im getting chieftain progress every time i give the scavengers a pearl

monk progress every time i only eat fruits

time to see the new area wooo!!!

noww im in the area

shoreline!!

why cant i move if its a bug pls tell me how to get out

[minor maple]

Youre holding a pole

[undone badge]

i couldnt go up, down, left, right

ik i was holding a pole

ill record it when i get back i drowned

[minor maple]

Pole movement with water physics is kinda wack

[undone badge]

it also happened when i wasnt in water

[minor maple]

Huh

[undone badge]

and when i do get off i cant go on the right side of the pole

[minor maple]

Okay I got no idea

Weird

Maybe put it in #1019653041982537879

In the meantime try seeing if verifying steam files does anything?

[undone badge]

what flair do i use on the post

[undone badge]

what

[minor maple]

Do you ahve RW on Steam

[undone badge]

yes

[minor maple]

Okay you can click on the settings wheel and click properties

Go to installed files then hit verify integrity of files

[undone badge]

look it just shoves me to the left

[minor maple]

Itll do like a double check of all the game files to make sure everything works correctly

[undone badge]

alr

[minor maple]

Okay

[undone badge]

"all 0 files successfuly validated"

0????

[minor maple]

Whatever it is thats pushing you left it keeping the scug from climbing up cuz it wants to move away form the wall to get up but it, cant

Uhmm lemme see-

Maybe its cuz the games running?

[minor maple]

It might not like trying to mess with the files while its running

[undone badge]

yeah probably

yeah its checking now

[minor maple]

Well see if it does anything

[undone badge]

that 1 file is so devious

[minor maple]

The only thing I can think of that could be causing it is the game is misplacing the edge-of-room border whcih pushes you back into the visible area

[undone badge]

nope, i tried that and i could go to that edge just fine when i was in the water

[minor maple]

Hmm

Theres is another way to get up there without using that tunnel if it doesnt work

[undone badge]

alr

how important could that 1 file be i dont have????

[minor maple]

No idea lol ¯_(ツ)_/¯

In any case the files should be fine now so there shouldnt be any bugs happening related to that

[undone badge]

o

so if i check rn it should be back?

[minor maple]

t should be good yeah

[undone badge]

gonna check rq

that 1 file out of 20937 was sneaky

[minor maple]

lmao

Ive heard its good practice to verify files even after installing a game jsut to make sure nothing slipped through during the initial download

[undone badge]

ig ill be doing that from now on if i dont forget

ty

[minor maple]

Yeye

[undone badge]

also i noticed that the slugcat the yellow thing is pointing to is getting closer? i may be stupid

i still cant go up there hmmm

i found a very scuffed way to get there

I HELD LEFT AND UP AND IT SOMEHOW WENT UP OCCASIONALLY???

[minor maple]

xd

I mean if it works ig!

[undone badge]

it worked out :3

oh sick more lore!!

its been a while

i really feel like im getting close even though there are 12 areas

theres so much swimming!

im making so much progress rn

its just a big almost empty ocean 😭

:o

[green finch]

damn! Missed some solid progress

[undone badge]

"looks to the moon" huh

IDK WHY BUT I FEEL LIKE THE NEXT ROOM IS BIG?

[undone badge]

its alr lol

theres creepy sounds

and a really strange area

wheres yellow pointer guy when i need them the most 😭

no spear 😔

theres so many cubes around here

this place is so cubic

wooo

[green finch]

[undone badge]

woah

i dont understand what its saying

im glowing like crazy now!

im a walking lamp

uh oh

[green finch]

congrats!

[undone badge]

uhhh ty?

im now half happy and worried what i did

i see yellow things floating around that look like the flower

and then when i touch them they float away

like that one i touched a sec ago

theres so many of them around here

i think thats enough progress for now

[runic ivy]

Uh oh… the local slugcat is being a slugcat again (eating everything)

(Don’t worry this is normal, slugcats like eating things)

[undone badge]

[undone badge]

these glowing things are everywhere

and i think they are all going left??

[storm pebble]

:0 you should follow them

[undone badge]

i am dw (pls try not to tell me what i should do though, if i would have missed that it would technically be a spoiler 😭)

[undone badge]

this song is so cursed 😭

[storm pebble]

how is it cursed

[dire ivy]

batfly dies in endgame

[undone badge]

compared to every other song ive heard in game

[storm pebble]

i can tell u it shows/plays really often because of leeches u dont notice

lmao

[runic ivy]

It takes everyone by surprise when they hear it for the first time… it feels so random lmao

[runic ivy]

I don’t think it’s a threat theme?

The musics called “The Captain”

The threat theme is “Threat - Shoreline”

This one is location based not threat based, according to the wiki

[storm pebble]

its not the threat theme?

lol i thought it is

[runic ivy]

It sounds like a threat theme XD

[undone badge]

oh so the other cool songs are threat themes?

[undone badge]

ENDGAME???

[undone badge]

Man i dont believe im end game

Unless the other 6 areas are downpour

[green finch]

How so? who said you are?

[undone badge]

Im the only batfly in here

"Batfly dies in end game"

[green finch]

Weren't you doing it the whole playthrough?

[undone badge]

Fair enougb

[undone badge]

oh god shore is way bigger than i thought

i guess i somehow took the shortest path in it

but now i have to go the longer way due to those yellow things

nvm i took the wrong path i think

ok now i found the way to go but i died

[junior thicket]

ooh shoreline

def one of the areas ever

[undone badge]

Once i beat the non dlc game im guessing i gotta move this channel to msc

[undone badge]

i am so confused

i saw the death screen twice in a row now but then i came back to life??

[storm pebble]

u mean the "dead" bar?

sometimes u r not actually dead

ur slugcat face is a ">.<" it just means u cant move

but if its a "x.x" then u r very dead lol

[undone badge]

i couldnt see the face because i was underwater

but thats neat

im finding a lot of rooms that seem impossible to go through due to it being underwater

[storm pebble]

apparently if u r only >.< but get dragged underwater u still drown eventually, to get "dead dead"

kinda indicated by hearing the "dun" death sound twice

[undone badge]

i heard that like 5 times in a row

it said "you died press continue to retry" then i was revived multiple times

[storm pebble]

i think u just getting let go'ed multiple times until u finally drowned/died to a lethal% bite

[undone badge]

oh

[undone badge]

@green finch im finding so many areas that seem impossible to get to, yet have a sandbox item at the end of them

[green finch]

wdym?

[undone badge]

like areas that dont have air pockets to breathe at

with a lot of swimming

[green finch]

oh... sometimes you just need a little help

[undone badge]

hmm alr

[undone badge]

i cant find the yellow orb thats going in this direction hmmm

oh so thats the alternate way of getting there

interesting how that kill didnt count towards the dragon slayer

[storm pebble]

what yellow orb

oh yea slamander is one of the 3 that didnt count LOL

[storm pebble]

if u rlike new to this area just ignore this

u can come back at a later time once u figure it out lol

i didnt get it when i first got there too

[undone badge]

i really gotta explore it though due to the yellow orbs

im trying to follow them

it looks like a slugcat soul

nvm

it looks like the yellow pointer thing ig

@green finch i finally found why backflips are useful

it counts as a fall so you can do the roll dash with it

[green finch]

yoooooo! Nice

you are so movement rn

[undone badge]

i am very movement

[storm pebble]

wow nice

[undone badge]

i cant figure out where that yellow thing goes

it just dissapears

[runic ivy]

I think because you went thru the pipe? Idk

Where was it when it disappeared? What pipe was closest to it?

Try going thru that pipe and seeing what is in that area.

Don’t forget, sometimes you can go offscreen :)

[undone badge]

gonna check that rq

nope these 2 areas are right next to eachother

its hard to take screenshots of the map

[undone badge]

@runic ivy

[storm pebble]

do you really want to know what the yellow thing do

[green finch]

[undone badge]

no

[storm pebble]

then uh yea

[undone badge]

i just decided to look at the map again and decide the most obvious path that goes upwards 😭

i can only see 1 path to get there

[green finch]

are you still in shoreline?

[undone badge]

yes

its like a giant tower i found

but i cant get to the other side of it

its hard to take screenshots so ig ill just record the map

i really underestimated shoreline

[storm pebble]

very relatable

[green finch]

please do not show maps of your own playthrough

[storm pebble]

oh ok

[undone badge]

luckily i didnt see it

[storm pebble]

tbf its the same place as you but i uncovered a little bit more

[undone badge]

it would be cool if you could make vcs in these

[undone badge]

i have been stuck in this one shelter for a while now

[green finch]

Which one?

[undone badge]

this

[undone badge]

most useful feature ever

[green finch]

I bet you have a lot of unexplored places on the surface. They could be easier than traveling through lower shoreline

[undone badge]

im not sure actually

i explored the surface a lot and i think i only didnt explore 1 surface area besides the ones i dont know how to get to via water

[storm pebble]

wtf

[undone badge]

i may be wrong

i just learned that those red things temporarily make enemies unable to see me due to blindness or hearing loss or something

and i finally know what those tiny dots mean next to the amount of times you hibernated in a row

huhh the orbs are going in a different direction now in a different area

IM FINDING MORE

IM GETTING CLOSE TO WHATEVER IT IS BECAUSE THEY ARE GOING UP NOW

oh boy its a new area

i didnt explore the surface on the back side of the map 😭

i wonder what this place is

shaded citadel huh

woah this place is creepy

its this place before shoreline so hopefully its a little simpler

that looks awfully like a slug even though it isnt 😭

im glad i have this light...

if i was here without it i would be dead so fast

this place is filled with these yellow things

im definitely close to something

they are all roaming this place

[green finch]

Yooooooo

Progress

[undone badge]

yes but no

i keep dying to those red and black carpet things

theres so many of them too

[green finch]

Red and black carpet things?

[undone badge]

they are like long with little long vine hands

stretch out to grab you

you need a weapon to be here 😭

you can actually kill them pretty quickly if you throw a spear near the bottom and then spam it

[green finch]

[undone badge]

and at a few hits in they are pretty much unable to kill you due to how weak they are

i still cant get the one shats in a wall though

i see some very very bright glow in the distance!!

Rip 3 spears

im in memory crypt now i guess?

with some extremely scary enemies

IM SCARED

woah what

FLASHBANGS

they make sounds like if they were made of metal or something

[green finch]

[undone badge]

reminds me, that giant thing in the ocean was metal

the head of those lizards are probably metal

WHAT IS NOT METAL

rain is half way here and i cant find shelter

a...

i already found a new area apperantly

[green finch]

Speedrunning the game now

[undone badge]

😭

i mean not really

WHY IS THIS PLACE CALLED "THE LEG"

thats ominous

[minor maple]

The 🦵

[green finch]

✨ 🦵 ✨

[undone badge]

everything is getting more and more mechanical

[green finch]

@dim iron

[minor maple]

:)

[green finch]

Obligatory

[minor maple]

THE PIT!!!

THE PIT CLAIMS ANOTHER

[green finch]

PRAISE THE PIT

[undone badge]

is there some sort of cult around that one pit??

[minor maple]

Yes

[undone badge]

lmao

[minor maple]

Specifically that pit

[undone badge]

you guys seem pretty hyped about the leg

[minor maple]

I just like The Pit

[green finch]

I like the region 👉 👈

[undone badge]

lol alr

NOOO THE BIRD KILLED THE BLUE POINTY THING :(

this time im NOT letting the pit claim me

[green finch]

Sorry! It only counts once

[undone badge]

oh alr

[green finch]

Per person

[undone badge]

i noticed whenever i flashbang those birds they literally glitch out

their eyes start glitching 😭

least obvious robot

not enough food :(

that memory place looks awful a lot like the outskirts

[green finch]

How so?

[undone badge]

a bunch of ropes attached to boxes that float

with buildings in the background

that kinda remind me of industrial

it also looks like a warehouse for some reason

the weather is TERRIBLE up here

woah

I FINALLY MADE IT TO THE SHELTER

[green finch]

[undone badge]

i really enjoy that tongue swing thing

also WOW im far

its really complicated

THE LEG HAS ELECTRICITY

[storm pebble]

dang u figured it out

wait why did it show me ur really old message

[storm pebble]

this is basically what happens there when its raining time

[undone badge]

ik

but thats one of the only times i see electricity

[storm pebble]

absolutely hated it

might be more than 3

[undone badge]

please stop revealing names of stuff its fun calling them silly names

[storm pebble]

oh

sorry

i shall make my leave before i accidentally let u know things

i like to call them tongue a lot when i still have it

[minor maple]

This has happened several times now I think
Please take caution when talking in other peoples forums
You do not know the extent of their knowledge so dont say anything they probably dont knkw

[storm pebble]

yea ok

[undone badge]

nice camo

MY WORST NIGHTMARE IS BACK BUT BLUE

[storm pebble]

its a nice shade of blue!

[undone badge]

limited edition

im in underhang now

creepy music

i got so far :(

No thanks

i think playing 4 or 5 hours in one session is enough today

[storm pebble]

thats a long session :0

[undone badge]

makes up for how long i was stuck in one area

[spare delta]

Did no one increment the counter?

[spare delta]

Are you sure? I'm pretty sure we've done double-counts before.

[minor maple]

Huh
I guess not xd

[green finch]

I pinged dendi already

that's a second death

[spare delta]

Do it yourself

[green finch]

you have the count somewhere?

[spare delta]

It's stored in a very special archive known as "message-search for pit victim death counter"

[green finch]

oh so I just...

[green finch]

The Pit Victim Death Counter: 248

[undone badge]

WHY IS THIS ACTUALLY A THING 😭

[spare delta]

Because it happens that often

248 times, to be precise.

[undone badge]

wow

[green finch]

249

just in the new thread lol

[spare delta]

The Pit Victim Death Counter: 250

[green finch]

no way

[spare delta]

I guess tehnically the other person is death #250.

[green finch]

if we'd count every death I would contribute around 10 of these

at least

[spare delta]

I guess once you're past your first playthrough it doesn't count?

[green finch]

[spare delta]

IDK

[green finch]

@dim iron should know!

[spare delta]

We should establish more concrete rules for the Pit™️

[storm pebble]

the number grow surprisingly slow

or maybe just not too many people r sharring the fact they fall into da pit

[dim iron]

Hello
Yeah more established rules could be nice

[undone badge]

https://tenor.com/view/stinky-loser-tiny-kitten-explode-gif-15623895175038521381

oh cool im a monk now

[undone badge]

i thought this place was just called "The leg" 😭

woo 2 left for complete dragon slayer

imma try to level up so ic an enter the next area.... its gonna be painful

im at level 4/5 rn

im scared what that area is gonna be like

this place is already extremely scary

that reveals too much D:

[viral topaz]

https://tenor.com/view/duck-dance-rivulet-moon-looks-to-the-moon-rain-world-gif-3447099396606505332

[viral topaz]

I know it totally reveals so much

[undone badge]

it actually does, i had no idea theres a creature there

[viral topaz]

what there’s lots of creatures everywhere

What do you mean?

[undone badge]

fair enough

[viral topaz]

lol

[undone badge]

but it does get rid of the surprise

[viral topaz]

Not really you still don’t know anything about it

[green finch]

please do not spoil anything and don't allude to spoilers

[green finch]

nice one!

[viral topaz]

I didn’t spoil hello??

[undone badge]

I HEAR SCREAMS

AND I HAVE LESS GRAVITY

nvm i have NO gravity

five pebbles (unfortunate development) ????

everything is so glitchy

aw i died

[storm pebble]

woo five pebbles!

hows the experience?

[green finch]

Unfortunate I assume

[minor maple]

You didnt directly spoil, like, names or anything but you alluded to spoilers

||You gave the impression that theres something neat in this area specifically and that already spoils that theres something in this area specifically||

[storm pebble]

learning from igna how to word stuff to avoid spoiling people rn

[dim iron]

Please avoid giving more information than the player asks for.

[viral topaz]

bro

[minor maple]

RW is a game best experiences with as few spoilers as possible

We cannot say anything if we dont know what the player does or doesnt know

[undone badge]

very difficult indeed

[undone badge]

im guessing i shouldnt read what this says

[supple valley]

no, do not

[undone badge]

i wont read it

[green finch]

How's the progress so far?

[undone badge]

very small?

i died

this is really scary

one bad move and you float to death

[supple valley]

sounds like pain

[undone badge]

rude to enter like that >:(

this place is full of these blue things 😭

[supple valley]

[undone badge]

finally made it to a shelter a little bit far from the one right next to the entrance

i just went in a circle, great

IS THAT A BLACKHOLE???

nope thats a blue enemy hole

that has blackhole functions

SO CLOSE

[stray karma]

Oof

[undone badge]

the pain is immesurable

i can get past that blackhole room now but the room after is way harder

(and it has so many moving parts its lagging a lot)

cactus?

memory conflux huh

[stray karma]

Can the black holes kill you?

[undone badge]

there are blue enemies in them so yes

this place is so bright

[stray karma]

Better than being in the dark

[undone badge]

uh oh

this is terrifying

@green finch

[green finch]

you made it through!

[stray karma]

:D

[undone badge]

THERES NO RAIN

[green finch]

[undone badge]

im calm now

those rooms were painfully hard

[stray karma]

Yeah

I like to compare it to path of pain from hollow knight

[undone badge]

i think ive seen a video on that

it could also be compared to some parts in celeste in difficulty

[stray karma]

Celeste isn't that difficult tbh

[green finch]

Farewell

[stray karma]

100% achievements

And multiple golden strawberries

And the winged golden

[green finch]

this is difficult

[undone badge]

lets not talk about any celeste spoilers here just in case

[green finch]

lol yeah

[undone badge]

that took me like 5k-10k deaths? i forgot

[green finch]

15k for me

[undone badge]

Rip

[stray karma]

1k for me 💀

[undone badge]

[stray karma]

I play farewell just for fun

[undone badge]

recursive transform array

[green finch]

oh wait... it's the whole playthrough

anyways

rain world

[undone badge]

i cant escape of this endless cycle

[green finch]

speeeeeeeen

[undone badge]

i gotta restart 😭

[green finch]

you can ||grab and throw some stuff||

[undone badge]

i wont look at it

[green finch]

[undone badge]

but ig ill go back

hitting it with a rock does nothing

throwing it at the lasers dont do anything hmmm

[green finch]

[stray karma]

Bud rolled a 2 on perception 😭

[undone badge]

throwing it on the generators do nothing

OHH isee it

oops wrong video

just found out what happens when you fly into those blue things

very shocking

everything is getting scarier

WHAT IS THIS GIANT BLACK CUBE

[stray karma]

?

[undone badge]

apperantly ive already been here just didnt see the cube 😭

this is a maze

GIANT blackhole room

i think i found the correct way

it leads to the other side of the path i came from

DONT YOU DARE

[green finch]

oh god

[undone badge]

i found a shelter i hope this makes it simpler 😭

this reminds me of when i got the light

theres so many cubes with crawling areas in them

[green finch]

where did you find a shelter?

[undone badge]

uh oh

i backtracked 😭

[green finch]

[undone badge]

i dont have enough time to screenshot it

welp this is bad.

i might use my monk passage thing 😭

[green finch]

what's up?

[undone badge]

im wandering in circles

im lost

imma go back to that giant cube room... that room looks important

[green finch]

praise the cube!

[undone badge]

i wonder if i could screenshare anywhere without spoilers

ok i think i see the path

i feel like that whole path i went on was a distraction

im in memory conflux now but i see a way up

[minor maple]

You found new rooms, thats still something!

[undone badge]

now THIS looks correct

SURE IS

THE MUSIC IS GETTING LOUDER

its terrifying

ITS SO LOUD

[green finch]

[undone badge]

im actually scared rn

WHAT. IS. THIS.

WHAT THE HELL IS THISA

UM HI

its trying to speak to me but i dont understand itt

[green finch]

oh god

you are here

[green finch]

smort

[undone badge]

theres... a new symbol on my level

looks like the flower

my gravity is becoming normal again!!

UMM WHAT

HOW MANY MORE ARE THERE

[green finch]

damn nice! Such a solid progress

[undone badge]

let me have a breath please 😭

[undone badge]

ikr

i was quite literally just sent back to the shelter lol

i wonder what would happen if i just went back there

i see

im at "The Wall"

HOW HIGH AM I???

oh hell i see a different area and im not even all the way down yet

i hope this doesnt send me back there

chimney canopy huh

thats really embarrasing after all that

[green finch]

this pit is also rather popular but not so much to gather a cult

[undone badge]

it looks way harder though

oh nvm im just stupid

[green finch]

it just looks intimidating

(I died there myself like a week ago )

[undone badge]

RIP

[minor maple]

Me when I try to roll but get caught on the ledge before jumping

[green finch]

guess how I died

[minor maple]

lmao

It gets the best of us

[undone badge]

im not risking roll dashing yet

IM ALREADY IN A NEW AREA WTF?

ohh

THE SONG IN SKY ISLANDS IS GOOD

finally something calming after all of that glitchy mess

i think i played enough for today

it took me about 2 hours of wandering around to find that guy who gave me the gift

and thats after i even got into that area with the electric things

turns out it was all there to waste your time :3

ooh it even shows up here

[stray karma]

I never noticed that detail

But I think I won in the same play session i got it

[undone badge]

you can play in the same session???

win*

woah

[spare delta]

I mean, you can beat the whole game in one play session

I think I've actually done that before.

[undone badge]

well yes just be fast enough

[stray karma]

5p was pretty much the last area i had gone so I kinda already knew where the end was

[minor maple]

Shhhhh

Spoilers :3

[stray karma]

oops

[undone badge]

sky islands is so deadly

[stray karma]

It's fun imo

Never had a problem with it being deadly

just take some rocks and get some ledges

[undone badge]

fair enough

its just hard after being in 0 gravity for so long

[stray karma]

Yeah that got me too

[undone badge]

time to continue the cycle!!!

[green finch]

[undone badge]

im dying way too much 😭

im confused on the path to the shelter because the map is kinda weird here

[green finch]

The region is hard. Dw about dying a lot

[undone badge]

yeah but if i die one more time i cant get back here unless i level up

[green finch]

Look closely at the map

Oh... yeah...

[undone badge]

im guessing this is a gift thing

becuase i was at the right part of the map i believe?

ah i found it

2 areas, 1 lizard left

these are the infinity stones

now i have to find the way out of here and im confused :3

?????

that jump is possible???

[green finch]

Does it look possible?

[undone badge]

no

i found a new path!!

so many birds

wth im going up again

i do not like going up since five pebbles

oh no i just went all the way up for a sandbox item woops

nvm?? its not showing the blue thing anymore???

thats not the way again waaa

Pain

[undone badge]

im actually finding 0 paths..

unless i gotta learn some new movement idk

[green finch]

This location is tricky

Use every trick you know

[undone badge]

EVERY TRICK??

pain

[green finch]

Yes

[undone badge]

i mean i did learn a few new ones

like dashing into a long jump

and fast crawling via corners

do you think i know the tricks required??

[green finch]

I don't wanna hint at anything specific but since you have sheltered there you have nothing to lose right?

[undone badge]

i guess yeah

[undone badge]

but do you think i know it?

like have i done it at least once

[green finch]

Maybe there are multiple ways to cross sky islands and you surely should know at least one way to do it

[undone badge]

alr

I FINALLY HAD TO USE IT

IN AN USEFUL WAY

the 2nd one killed me though

now i see why all of you die here due to rolling

now i cant replicate it yayyy

yeah i dont think im supposed to be doing jumps this difficult here

[green finch]

Nice jump!!

[storm pebble]

wow thats so pog thats a TUMBLE

[undone badge]

oh thx for the name

[storm pebble]

what name?

[undone badge]

tumble

[sour granite]

it's generally called a roll, not a tumble

[undone badge]

i call the normal roll a roll

the one with the dash a tumble

[sour granite]

Ahh, those are frequently called rollpounces
Tumble works, but movement people generally won't know what you're talking about

[undone badge]

ill use rollpounce then

ty for telling me

[minor maple]

Movement people are very specific with their terms lol

Half of it being combining [move] and [move]

[undone badge]

oh so the thing i called "long jump" is a pounce

[spare delta]

(unlike us first-playthrough lurkers...)

[undone badge]

alr

[minor maple]

Trueee

[spare delta]

Tech Chart™️ when

[minor maple]

blj when

[undone badge]

man i wanna screenshare rainworld but im worried someone would spoil in a vc

[spare delta]

Oh they probably would

[sour granite]

Names for movement tech would be funny to collect
Unfortunately a lot of first playthrough players either have loading screen tips or never find them

[minor maple]

The vc is a place I never go

[sour granite]

Vcs are a great place to get spoilers

[undone badge]

THERE ARE LOADING SCREEN TIPS???

[spare delta]

They're an opt-in thing in the Remix mod. Unfortunately they're kinda bad

[undone badge]

so im guessing a dash into a pounce would be called a dashpounce????

oh

i wont get mods until i beat the game and dlc

[spare delta]

(And also immersion-breaking )

[undone badge]

workshop can have spoilers

and that yeah

[spare delta]

the DLC is a mod

[undone badge]

technically its not because its official content

[spare delta]

eh

sorta

It's considered a mod technically

[minor maple]

All of the dlc is mods made official

[spare delta]

And it was made mostly by modders, it's only approved by the developers.

[undone badge]

oh

so its just like the binding of isaac repentance i guess

[spare delta]

I've heard that before, never played The Binding of Issac

[undone badge]

basically the whole community hated a dlc and made a better version and edmund made them devs

[spare delta]

That's kind of awesome

[undone badge]

this jump is the hell of me

[sour granite]

It's similar, not quite the same ofc
MSC started off as an unofficial mod tho, yeah

[minor maple]

MSC is one of the first mods made for RW back when it first released so its pretty old

[undone badge]

oh wow

[spare delta]

In our case it was sorta more "we temporarily lost the right to develop the game for complicated legal reasons but there's a lot of cool content here so would you like to fill in for us"

IIRC

[undone badge]

thats pretty funny lol

[minor maple]

Basically yeah

[spare delta]

The next DLC is a collaboration between another team of modders and the developers

[minor maple]

And hopefully we get lore that isnt contradictory

[undone badge]

2nd time i made it here

[undone badge]

oh cool

the rest of the attemps all end up the same

[spare delta]

In this case I think it's mostly just because the modders are that good

The modding community is insanely talented. Some of us are easily better at level design than the devs and the devs know it

[undone badge]

so close!!!

[undone badge]

lol

i would be terrible at level design for sure

for obvious reasons

[spare delta]

(also I think the sole level designer for vanilla has an injured wrist now, but still)

[undone badge]

ouch

they designed every single level in the main game....

Wow

[minor maple]

2 people worked on all of RW

James and Joar

[spare delta]

Well, some more did art.

But, yeah.

[minor maple]

Yea

Most of RW

[undone badge]

WHAT

[spare delta]

James did the audio and level design, Joar did the code and art assets.

[undone badge]

thats very impressive

[minor maple]

Miimows did all the cutscene art right?

[spare delta]

I would assume so? Not sure.

[undone badge]

im getting more used to that 1st roll

the cutscene arts look really sick

all of the art is sick

[undone badge]

nvm

this cycle is endless and painful

ONLY IF I STILL HAD MY SPEAR :(

i hope i dont die now.

I DIED

im losing my sanity

[sour granite]

You were so close

[undone badge]

i made it on one but died

out of vanilla firt playthrough i think i died the most here

[spare delta]

Maybe that's a sign you should try a different approach?

[undone badge]

if i die here wait

i made it to the other side again

D:

[undone badge]

well... this is the only approach i know works for me

[spare delta]

(the MSC team is considerably larger since it's a bunch of modders)

[undone badge]

makes sense

these jumps are driving me insane this game got a huge difficulty spike

[spare delta]

What about ones you don't know work for you

[undone badge]

idk how to do them

i dont think i know every movement in the game

[minor maple]

Not eveyr solution requires movement

[undone badge]

huh...

ill try later because im tired of repeating the same cycle over and over

[spare delta]

Just checked. There are around 8x more modded regions than vanilla ones

[sour granite]

That's terrifying

[undone badge]

wow

[undone badge]

well i dont see it

[green finch]

[undone badge]

im still stuck there

😭

[green finch]

how did you try to cross the gap?

[undone badge]

the one after the 1st?

[green finch]

yeah... I mean the whole gap. Which methods did you try so far?

[undone badge]

backflip roll pounce

i can get past that gap sometimes

[green finch]

so you are making it

[spare delta]

There are other methods that might be easier

[undone badge]

are there????

i think i died there like 50 times

maybe more

[storm pebble]

thats so tragic

[undone badge]

this is what kills me the most now

landing that spear

im overcomplicating it i think

but this is all i can think of

I LANDED FOR LIKE THE 3RD TIME!! i hope i can make it now

I HAVE HOPE

I GOT TO A SHELTER

WOOOOO

time to learn a new trick

my trickery is not enough

[storm pebble]

you need downspear i think

a downspear would help

man i dont look forward visiting that region i was there for a bit but i never make it to a shelter after dying like, 6 times LOL

[spare delta]

No, not necessarily.

Also, spoilers-

[undone badge]

i dont even know what a downspear is 😭

[spare delta]

@storm pebble please don't mention stuff that you don't know people know, unless they're really stuck and need the info. That's how spoilers happen.

[storm pebble]

sorry

[undone badge]

its ok

this is probably the hardest area 😭

[spare delta]

Remember, if something seems unreasonably hard, you might be missing something
There are at least a few things that could help you survive here that I don't think you know.

[undone badge]

wayy more than a few

[spare delta]

Experiment, learn some of them

[undone badge]

[storm pebble]

we believe in you foggy!

[undone badge]

nothing is working D:

[green finch]

do you need a hint?
