There is no indie game more overrated than Hollow Knigh-
Why is it always a fucking platformer
>wall jumping and airdashing over endless walls of spikes
Literally every indie game ever
i love hollow knight but its not the postgame challanges that makes it good
...is that supposed to be a difficult section or something?
Undertale
Super meat boy
Celeste
Untitled goose game
It literally isn't.
Woah dude imagine how many times you have to practice that section to post that epic webm! Git gud xDDD!

True. Good level design is something that most indies still struggle with. They either go with "spikes everywhere xD" or just procedurally generated.
excepting SMB, solid counterpoints
although, this post is 'things that never happened'
This.
All of those are underrated, though.
This, it's such a tired trope at this rate. Only way these pea brain indie devs can design "challenge" levels.
Should I try this out?

>underrated
hello newfriend
Cope.
>Durr my shitty indie isnt overrated because CHALLENGE!!!
Hollowkeks are so fucking pitiful
super mario 3D land was possibly the piss easiest platformer I have ever played in my entire life. I mean actual 2 year olds can play that game and finish it. I finished the entire thing without dying a single on my first playthrough. hell I don't think I even got hit once it was boring me to tears
Everyone praises the art and "atmosphere" for this game, but I really dont like it.
Reminds me of a badly made newgrounds platformer.
Celeste
>Reminds me of a badly made newgrounds platformer.
The best part is that HK really did originate as a shitty newgrounds game
This looks really dishonest
Is there a more emotionally dishonest game than Hollow Knight?
Hard mode: No Nier: Automata.
>DUDE SAWBLADES
If you really wanna impress someone post a webm of your Pantheon of Hallownes clear.
O wait you can't because ur a shitter.
>super mario 3D land was possibly the piss easiest platformer I have ever played in my entire life. I mean actual 2 year olds can play that game and finish it.
Did you play the special levels? Because they fuck you hardcore in your ass
No one said anything about difficulty
Why, did you think it was hard? Pussy
Play Battle Brothers, brother
>emotionally dishonest
The hell does that even mean?
Just another zoomer buzzword, ignore that retard.
Eliciting certain emotions through manipulative and contrived methods.
First of all, this design is for precision platformers (Celeste, Super meat boy, End is Nigh, etc), which is obviously not in all games
Secondly, this is not as widespread as you may expect, as many precision platformers rely on timing, gimmicks and even randomness
Thirdly, this isnt bad design. Precision platformers are created not for approaches to jumps, but more for execution of jumps. With this design, they achieve their goals extremely well.
God I loved the Path of Pain
Felt so good to finish it
Ori was like this too for most of it, and it's not a meme "precision" platformer (like the fuck does that even mean lol).
celeste
super meet boy
blasphemous
death cells
bastion
shovel knight
axiom verge
downwell
>like what the fuck does that even mean lol
he literally gave you 3 examples (4 if you count the game we're discussing)
this boring trash is supposed to be impressive?
And it does that how?
>axiom verge
>walljump
huh?
Did you just literally list random shit? Only the first two could qualify for this topic.
He literally didn't.
>Celeste, Super Meat Boy, End is Nigh, etc
He literally did
>baby's first metroidvania
awww so cute
He literally didn't.
