Reposted starting message

So, I got frustrated on Shoreline after my Karma being rock bottom thanks to those dumb leeches and since it was a long time since I played, I deleted my game and started from scratch. Thanks to the Wiki, I have learned some new game mechanics which I was not aware of before! However, how in the world I found my first ||Echo|| in ||Shaded Citadel|| so easily the first time is beyond me… rivsob

The leeches get us all trust mesaintpensive

#

I'd try not to use the wiki as much as possible as you could spoil yourself but I can't stop you only discourage youhuntershruggy

#

Is there anything you're particularly struggling with?

lone osprey
#

I’m careful in not spoiling myself as I like to find things out myself generally but thank you.

#

I play on PlayStation as opposed to PC so some of the controls are different. For example how you can do some flips and dodge moves. If I could figure out how to use some of those, I might be able to dodge lizards easier

dapper tide
#

I'm also a fellow console player (Xbox) and yea I can confirm that the flips and dodge moves are pretty difficult for us console peoplelizblueblep

#

(Well, not that difficult but harder than it is on PC)

lone osprey
#

Also I sometimes have trouble reaching some shelters so I wonder if I’m missing something. Like there is a shelter in the Shaded Citadel that I can’t reach and the rain gets me every time… slugweep

dapper tide
#

What room seems to be giving you trouble?monkconfused

lone osprey
#

Do you have any tips on how to friend Scavs to get a lantern to use in the Shaded Citadel? Also, I have a theory that if you meet Looks to the Moon and eat the spores that cause Slugcat to glow and have a bigger drive for survival, do you not need a lantern then?

Another time I saw a Scav being dragged away by a lizard so I went to help it. I followed them and was spearing the lizard. Now either the Scav thought I was a threat or I was caught in the cross fire, but it used a Flashbang on me and I went flying… So much for trying to do a good deed

#

Also, you got to love it when you move into another room just to wind up in the jaws of a lizard right on the other side… I guess you could say I hit a rough patch rivworried

#

I’m at full karma again so I should be able to find the Echo this round. Just need to get there from my shelter

lone osprey
#

Good news: I found the Echo in the Shaded Citadel again
Bad news: Lost all my karma trying to get past those Monster Kelp
Good news: Made it to the Memory Crypts which I’ve never been to before
Bad news: Ran into those Miros birds. Just met them and already don’t like them

#

That moment when you realized it does matter which hand the spear is in when you want to throw it into a wall to make a platform… hunterrip

#

To think all the times it worked, I had it in the right hand for it to work and suddenly when it doesn’t work anymore, it was in the other hand

lone osprey
#

Well I got to The Leg. Apparently I’m heading to hard regions before I done easier regions.

#

I ran out of time and it is supposed to rain but I’m in a room and instead of rain, the room is sparking green everywhere and Slugcat is being shook around like popcorn but it hasn’t died yet… a glitch perhaps?

So 8’m just exploring the area trying to find shelters to move on. Never been to these regions before

gloomy merlin
#

lone osprey
#

If only I could up my karma. At the bottom rn lizblueplead

#

good luck!!!!

lone osprey
#

This isn’t my first playthrough per se but I reset my progress because I was tired of being a rock bottom karma at the mercy of leeches so here I am at tougher levels without having even seen Looks to the Moon yet… whee!

#

What are those slug things that crawl along the pink slime?

#

Can you use those to get around?

gloomy merlin
#

try experimenting !

#

What are those blue things with the many eyes and long tentacles? Daddy Long Legs or Brother Long Legs? There are quite a few in the Outside/Leg

simple moat
#

that's the important part

errant sleet
#

thanks for the ping 👍 👍 i will watch this playthrough

mellow sigil
#

We should make a gelper ping timer, and when it becomes too big, ping them somewhere to spice up life. /j

lone osprey
#

I made it to the Underhang and met my first yellow lizards. Yellow Lizards and Long Legs, oh my. It is levels like these that definitely make Rain World a platformer

gloomy merlin
#

indeed

lone osprey
#

I better make this an interesting playthrough as I attracted a lot of attention saintblep

gloomy merlin
#

everything is interesting don't worry

lone osprey
#

Okay, I looked in the Wiki, briefly as I don’t want spoilers, and saw it was Daddy Long Legs that I’m currently dealing with. The brown ones I saw earlier last time I played in earlier regions were Brother Long Legs

#

Nothing like getting stuck between a yellow lizard and Daddy Long Legs…

gloomy merlin
#

this is indeed quite the experience

sick belfry
#

feel free to ask and say you direct answers here instead of looking at the wiki monksilly even if you didn't get spoiled now, you could in the future

lone osprey
#

Okay, thanks!

lone osprey
#

So apparently there are several moves Slugcat can do like flips, slides, etc which are not explained in-game. There is a LOT that isn’t explained in-game tbh, like the reputation system, which I only learned about in the Wiki. Anyway, what are the inputs for some of Slugcat’s moves? For example, I’ve gotten it to flip sometimes but I’m not sure how it I did it and just regular jumping over a lizard doesn’t always work…

gloomy merlin
#

yeah ur supposed to be a lost animal in a dangerous ecosystem and the game reproduce that so u have to explore, experiment and observe in order to poetentially discover stuff, but for each their own i did look a bit to the wiki too monksilly

#

there is a 90 pages guide of slugcat movement on the net but i dont suggest loking into it because there is way too much stuff in it

#

other reason its not explained in the game is because the animation is real time procedural, so that means many things are just emergent gameplay created by the community

#

nonetheless there are some specific inputs tho

lone osprey
#

I generally like figuring things out on my own because it can be more fun that way, but I might get a little farther if I know how to perform some of the moves purposefully

#

Especially dodges and flips

mellow sigil
#

If you accidentally done a flip, you can try to reproduce it! Remember the input you performed?

gloomy merlin
lone osprey
#

I suppose so, it’s just frustrating at times being at minimum karma or losing it after it gain it to a predator over and over! Makes meeting the Echos that much harder…

#

Oh, that glitch where Slugcat was bounced around like popcorn among the green sparks when time ran out didn’t happen again. Thankfully it was a one time glitch. Another odd glitch I saw was when I was in the Industrial Complex and Slugcat would sometimes be missing its tail! It was horrible… articry Poor thing…

gloomy merlin
#

oh never saw the second one

indigo rain
#

Missing tail is usually a sign of memory leak

lone osprey
#

To think that memory leak could still happen even when you play with a disc… huh

gloomy merlin
#

memory leak everywhere

mellow sigil
#

average C# experience. /j

lone osprey
#

A lizard just experienced karma itself. It ate Slugcat then got eaten by a Daddy Long Legs right after.

#

Shouldn’t have eaten Slugcat…

gloomy merlin
#

quite rude from him

lone osprey
#

Is there even a shelter in the Underhang? I feel like I’ve been all over and can’t find one. I found a gate but I can’t use it with minimum karma. I need at least 5 karma for it to work… rivworried

gloomy merlin
#

i can only say that if you continue to explore you will find more things monksilly

lone osprey
#

Well, I have yet to find one… rivboowomp

#

I’m back in the Outside/Leg trying to up my karma before I head back. Then I can at least travel to the next region if I don’t find a shelter.

#

The grappling worms are fun to use monkblush

lone osprey
#

Get my karma up and hello Daddy Long Legs who decided to move much faster than usual. Maybe I bit off more than I can chew trying to navigate these harder regions so early on…

lone osprey
#

Good news! Got up to max karma (which was increased by two thanks to the Echo I found in the Shaded Citadel), found a shelter, and made it to Five Pebbles!

#

Found a shelter there in the area called Five Pebbles (Unfortunate Development). That sounds ominous…

#

Eeyup, there is rot in the walls….

#

With intermittent gravity. Very nice…
