TowerClimb - Spelunky's Deranged Cousin

[@DoshDoshington]

Here's one for all ten of you who wanted me to do another video on an indie game no one's ever heard of. Doing Factorio City and Part One of Space Exploration back to back had me a little drained, so consider this my vacation. Now, back to Space Exploration.

I totally understand listening to nonfiction while playing that type of game, but wouldn't you be getting way less of an immersive experience out of fiction if you're also paying attention a game rather than using your imagination? I don't know maybe you're great at doing both simultaneously, but that would really detract from the point of reading fiction, for me.

[@steved6533]

@@jedgrahek1426 Personally, I don't really find games that aren't story focused to distract me from audiobooks. Obviously I can't follow a story while playing a game where I'm also trying to follow a story, but one of the reasons I love purely mechanics based games is because I can choose whatever story I want to be immersed in while enjoying whatever type of gameplay I want. That said, I've spent around 10,000 hours listening to audiobooks so maybe I'm a bit of an outlier (I'm not exaggerating, almost up to 8000 hours in the audible app and I listened to audiobooks for years before I ever had the app.)

[@-47-]

​@@jedgrahek1426 I used to play Isaac and Hexcells when listening to audiobooks. I knew these games inside out, so I was essentially playing on autopilot.

Factorio isn't exactly my thing, but I watched through both this and the Marrow video and I am utterly blown away by how good they were. Your style of summarizing the game but still making people want to play them, and presenting points without huge bias or assumptions and everything else is so damn good. The games you chose to cover as well were really interesting and I'm definetly going to try them both. I really cannot wait to see what you create next!

[@soulrenvods]

Update: I have two thousand hours in both spelunkys, and have now sunk 3 hours into towerclimb. I'm sorta getting the hang of item jumping, I hate the ammount of worms in the hatchery, and I just now finally made it to Heart. I cannot figure out any way to hold more than two revives, but I feel like it's possible. It took so long to change from the "rush and dodge artfully" strategy of spelunky to the careful planning and navigation of towerclimb, but I gotta say I love this game. Update 2: I have reached heart twice more, but died on level 1 of it each time. The little pixels of lava are bastards. I'm getting way better at taking the path of exiles and also now understand how to get more revives, but I know it won't matter yet. I think learning how to craft items better might be the way to go, cause I usually only have corrode berries and crates by the time I'm at the heart.

Seeing this video has caused me to seek out and buy the game within a day. I've been playing it with a friend and together we've managed to get to Chapter 2 while also putting in work to eventually beat the game. Playing alone I managed to get to the temple and together we've gotten to Zardoland. Game really is harder in multiplayer just because of the greater need for mobility and the fact that deaths use up a lot of berries, requiring 1 per dead teammate. I swear we've spent at least 20 in a run cause of back to back deaths, sometimes in 1 level. I'm very excited for my friend to see Z-Ball for the first time as I'm sure he'll love to do some doubles against Zardo. Thanks for showing this to me. It's easily become one of my favorites even though I haven't even beaten it yet.

Your quickly becoming a favorite channel of mine. Finding games with "Actual difficulty" has been difficult itself. I'm almost done climbing Getting Over It for the 50th time, and Marrow was fascinating but a little too spartan for me. This looks likes it'll be interesting.

[@axouru]

Finding standalone games that are difficult and aren't multi-player, a soulsborne game, or a rhythm game really is tough, I usually end up modding games I already know which skews the difficulty and removes part of the learning curve element. TowerClimb is definitely one I'm also going to try, looks fun and the difficulty seems extreme. But it's not to the point where your smashing your face into a brick wall until the wall breaks. Unless you've already played it and decided whether or not it's for you, I highly recommend going into Noita blind. The game is disgustingly "unfair" until you figure most of it out. Downside of going blind is that once you get to doing the challenge runs like sun quest and 34-36 orb you're pretty much hopeless when trying to figure them out blind. The secrets in that game are very much community driven.

The sheer determination it requires to achieve what you did is gobsmacking, and you deserve the highest gamer commendations for it. I think a game you'll like covering that is both quality and relatively esoteric would be Cryptark. It's a 2D zero-grav twin-stick shooter roguelike with highly procedural and modular levels with a focus on long-term strategy in the form of loadouts and assessing the map [[ prior ]] to entering the level and short-term tactics when you inevitably need to adapt to the absolute chaos that game devolves into with the later firefights. You know that scene in Star Wars where Lando destroys the Death Star power core and then has to escape while the whole thing goes critical? You do that. Some explosions cannot be avoided or tanked, only [[ outrun ]]. Two words: Nuclear grenades.

Amazing how this game captures the essence of actual free climbing while stacking on loads of wild details. When you watch someone playing Jump King, there’s these tiny moments of tension between every jump as the jump gets charged. In this game, though, it’s a battle of endurance- every little pause, every frantic motion, every collected or skipped item is an indication that the player I’m watching is slowing down to seriously think through what’s in front of them. It’s a subtle difference, but the effect is like the difference between watching a slot machine click into place and watching a bullet chess player pause to think through a move. I have no idea how hard this game is, but I can tell just by watching an expert that it is very, very hard.

Thank you for posting this. I got as far as the one eyed monsters. Not sure why I stopped but now I want to finish it. As much as I want to spoil those ending sections I need to keep it a secret for myself. I'll finish this video when I do. Very few people even know this game's existence and there is something charming about that.

It's been a little while. Did you win in the end?

This video was amazing. Deserves way more views for your dedication and thorough analysis of every facet of a game I didn't think was possible to stay under my radar considering its genre. Great job

The quality of this content makes me believe this channel would explode with more uploads coming through KZbin will break with that subscribe button being smashed

THE END LMFAOOOOOO I don't think anyone could of expected this, I sure didn't XD

[@MurkonTrow]

Hey. Thank you for making this video. This is a game I saw and was fascinated by, but I could never get to grips with the control scheme. I'm glad I can experience vicariously through your coverage of it.

[@selensewar]

I appreciate the fact that i can just watch you play through this instead of playing through it myself a lot. Thank you.

You're a certified up and coming goated youtuber.

[@Meganarb]

Hell yeah, any content from you is lovely! Love these vids so much!

[@Oneriwien]

Two indie games that no one has ever heard of? You just got a subscriber and hopefully many many others.

I came back and watched and re-watched this video more than 10 times in the past 2 month and since I don't consider myself clever with word I'll just say that I appreciate all the effort you put into it. I hope you will continue making videos about games and subjects you like with a similar or an even greater level of passion. Thank you very much..

Coming back to this video made me realize this is one of my favorite videos of all time, easy to rewatch, calming voice (sort of), and it's pretty long and entertaining I love this video

I played this game in Alpha back in 2010 and followed its development for years. I'm glad someone has recognized it, it's a real gem. Reminds me of other games in that era like Captain Forever (and its clones), Super Crate Box and all those old Cactus games before he did Hotline Miami. Catacomb kids is a lot like this as well, but I think it got abandoned.

I have to get this game now thanks to you. You got me into Marrow and i beat the hell out of it. This game is next on the copping block when i get the money. In all sincerity, Thank you Doshdoshington. You know some good obscure stuff. Love these types of videos.
