[@MycoRelic]

Hey Mr Pineapple, thanks for playing our demo! We are actually about to release a completely reworked version within the next few weeks... Great timing lol.

[@MycoRelic]

I actually agree with alot of your feedback about the game. The good news is that we have been actively improving all of these problems over the past few months. In particular, improving the feel of melee combat, but also completely redesigning the level to feel less like a dead mmo and more like a souls-like game with intentional enemy placement. The version in this video is very scope creepy and you can tell we went in far too many directions at once. When we re release the demo, we hope that players will find it to be more straightforward and indicative of the direction of the game. I appreciate your friend mentioning that it's hard to make a co-op game that feels good to play solo, as that is something that weighs on our design sessions heavily. Something we find frustrating about souls games is the process of summoning your friends. I pride myself on the fact that we have functional co-op multiplayer through steam and I appreciate that you realize how difficult that is to pull off. Thanks for your feedback, I hope you have time give it another try in a few months.

[@thosebloodybadgers8499]

Rise of Rebellion gives me the vibe of these Unreal 5 indie projects that promise the entire world and have absolutely no concept of "feature creep" or "limits". Seriously, it looks impressive but, as Pineapple said, it's so incredibly overwhelming and overengineered to the point where engaging with the basic gameplay loop is exhausting. The player progression system would probably be based of Feng Shui and a complex cultivation simulation system that is comprised of tons of individual elements that do not do much on their own but misplacing even a single one would leave your build in shambles ten hours later, y'know? Like, there's no real sense for UX and there's a focus on the individual mechanics and systems without a comprehensive look on how the entire experience will be like. But then again, that is me basing this off a demo in what look to be barely a pre alpha.

[@SahiPie]

You described basically indie games from China. This dev is a Japanese one so I highly doubt we will see systems like what you are describing

[@finnpp9717]

I could only think of Tekken while watching it. Almost as convoluted as Tekken. The game has potential as an online 3d fighting game.

[@hedgehog3180]

I would imagine that in the final game these mechanics get introduced slowly over time, this is just a demo to showcase the combat system and I think it's apparant that your character looks very end game. Like there's no way you'll start the game with all of that equipment.

[@DarthChichiri]

Plushie in the Sky reminded me so much of the random PS1 video games I'd rent from Blockbuster when I was a kid. They were always wacky and had so much variety in them. I would never know what to expect! I love that it reminded me of those earlier times in gaming. It gave the game so much charm and a tinge of sad nostalgia for things that are gone now (which I think ties into the story of the game a little). It was so silly and cute but with a little bit of underlying darkness. It also reminded me of Kingdom Hearts in places. I hope the dev keeps making more games! (And my SPOILER theory is that only one sister died. It said Watermelon won and "you" lost, so that to me sounds like one survived. Also, the plushie giving up the halo to the girl seems to hint at sacrifice as well.)

Seeing how fast paced the action is in combination with how many different inputs there are reminds me of trying Tekken 7 or, for a closer analogue, Blade Symphony many years ago. It feels overwhelming to get into as a newcomer, and mastering these games requires literal years of learning and practice just to execute moves. Combining that with a story driven RPG... well we'll see how it goes I guess.

2:42 That is the exact same bell sound that the ice cream trucks in Iceland make. It's even the same amount of chimes. And it being the summer, it really tripped me out.

[@BongShlong]

Plushie actually looks so great. The devs put a lot of love into it. I'm guessing with a bigger budget a lot of the jank might have been able to be corrected. Polishing costs way more than creativity unfortunately

[@TaverickMama]

if it was more than a solo dev making a game in their spare time it would prolly be alot more polished too.

[@OldyAlbert]

I love Frogmonster, it's 20+ very good bosses and actually pretty neat world to explore as well! Glad you loved it as well, it needs recognition. Also, have you played "Withering Rooms"? Sorry if you did in yearlier videos, It's my new souls-like/survivor-horror obsession.

[@dalekin3177]

damn those fish really rolled up with the 32 fish palm technique.

[@barpg4582]

I can't believe how much you sequence broke the order of locations in Another Crab's Treasure. Honestly, it's a bit inspiring and might push me to re-examine the pathing in another run.

[@sketchywyvern]

in plushie from the sky i can't get over how the player character sounds like an asthmatic dog barking when they get hit

[@kudzukid12]

I just got so hyped when I saw this was a new video! I really enjoy these man. I don’t have a PC and I’m just a lowly console scrub so I feel like I can get a a little taste of the good life with these. Thanks for all your time and effort putting these together. Keep up the excellent work! It was a rough day on the job so this is the perfect thing to unwind to and I appreciate you.

[@YVray]

Angeline Era is just the OG Legend of Zelda's mechanics! The same obstacle course design where each square map is its own little challenge room. Zelda itself got away from that in its later 2D or 2.5D games, but this is such a fun and thoughtful way to push those mechanics forward.

[@gtf234]

The bump combat is more of an oldschool Ys thing

[@analgesicproductions]

level designer of Angeline era here! yep, we take influence from og Zelda but also the dungeon design of our games anodyne 1 and 2. In particular we liked the idea that you only need to kill a subset of enemies to open the doors - and within this we created a little design language in each room where you cAn try to puzzle out which enemies actually need to be killed to open the door! I think this contributes to each room feeling thoughtfully designed.

[@MaedsArchive]

I actually have so much respect for Plushie from the Sky. The devs embraced the absolute fever dream that was their game and succeed in making something amazing

[@RootTheCoop87]

*You stuck your katana in the ground and left it there at* 2:08:58 😂😂😂

[@BassLiberators]

2:45 IP looking at an enemy that's just a regular lizard standing up: "What the hell is this enemy design? I mean, WHAT are they even going for here?!" It's just a frilled neck lizard standing up IP, I don't know what to tell you hahah

[@Lappelduvideify]

With a bell that has no effect. Why?

[@sumthinorother9615]

⁠​⁠@@Lappelduvideify I think it does actually summon more, but slowly. I think they try to appear off screen, too. Eventually there’s a chaos version that I was pretty disappointed to not see a reaction to!

[@thehelmetcrab1533]

"surely there aren't mo-- EIGHT FISH??" at 34:04 killed me, especially as it just kept getting more absurd

[@sugmagaming7665]

Hello Mr. Pineapple I just wanted to say thank you for providing these longer form videos. I've been having a hard time lately and sleep has been getting more and more difficult, and in these time when I watch your videos I've found comfort in your voice and the content you provide that would lull me to sleep. This is not a dig at you, I'm really, really grateful. Sincerely, thank you.

[@RitzStarr]

Getting infinite combo'd to death with no counter play would definitely also remind me of For Honor

[@N4m3lesS_1]

yeah, thx, i couldnt remember the name. Thats what it reminded me of when they started the whole "attack in this direction" and "block in that direction" tutorials. That looked so cool and seemed to take an realistic approach but i guess the fighting game analogy was good too, all those inputs man. seemed very tough.

[@Zyckro]

Got Another Crab's Treasure on launch day. EASILY one of the best SHOALS-LIKES out there. Love this series. Keep going!

[@SonicHaXD]

With so many genuinely great Soulsliks in this video. It makes me wanna see a list of your top 10 favorite games you've played in your Steam dumpster diving series XD

[@Crylhound]

That plushie game is awesome. Lets you take a nap mid fight and even when flying 🤣

[@TheLastOstrich]

I just had surgery, and am bedridden-I am SO GRATEFUL that you posted. Thank you for keeping us entertained and my mind off the pain.

[@eizadi]

hope you get better.

[@TheLastOstrich]

@@eizadi thank you so much man

[@eminkilicaslan8945]

In second game when dev said "Then perish!" I really thought it gonna start a boss fight. Would be so cool. Asking player's to add to wishlist and if they say no start a very hard boss fight lol.

[@SelomGeh]

Never end this series

[@kyledabearsfan]

i like the "equip bugs" idea from Frogmonster, it really incentives people to get them but doesnt really punish them for not doing it. thats really good game design. Edit- also get Frogmonster, its really good lol

[@idanchen4934]

26:59 - LOL what a twist

[@s324]

It's funny you mentioned Ys Felghana re: Angeline, since Ys I & II were bump combat based as well.

[@aquack9919]

I think this is the first time I've seen a 3d game use it.

[@controlcon]

I'm glad we have Ys enjoyers here, they are some incredible games and the older ones are genuinely difficult. Ys 1 final boss took me like 2 hours, that boss was so wacky lol. Even though the newer games are definitely more leaning towards modern JRPGs (Ys 8 is my favourite in the series, and Ys 9 is fantastic too), I'll always have a soft spot for the older games. Origin has an incredible story and characters and Felghana is just a perfect mix of difficult but satisfying boss fights and compelling story. I didn't enjoy Napishtim as much, I think some of the mechanics in that game definitely have not aged well (I hate jump dashing), but it's still a decent game imo

[@vishnugopakumar8807]

I don't know why but Plushie from the Sky stole my heart. its so heartily made and so many of the ideas are actually so cool and interesting. i wish it had a bigger group working on it because with a more elegant artstyle and reducing the jank it could be incredible (although the jank does add to it lmao)

[@mewxtwo]

This series has changed your life and I'm so glad because it's so good and you deserve it. Also shouting out smaller devs is a cool move.

[@walkingchopsticks6731]

Taking a nap in the eye of the storm to heal is so goofy I love it.

[@windstormnintendo]

4:27 - Plushies from the sky unironically using the exact same wheel to describe stands from jojo is both hilarious and weirdly fitting

[@edisontrent618]

The stat wheel is a very typical Japanese way of displaying RPG stat type things. You see it in the later Pokemon games as well.

[@Romapolitan]

It's not really a exclusive Jojo or first appearence thing

[@windstormnintendo]

@@edisontrent618 true - except that it has mildly different names for the stats lol

[@TheKingOfNone]

"CnDs nuts, Gottem! Fuck you!" Was genuinely hilarious

[@DQSpider]

Oath in Felghana is an all time great game, and the remixes of the original soundtrack own too

[@GangaHD.]

That naptaking mechanic is so wild

[@novaking1717]

It's kinda crazy how spoiled we've been with some quality iron pineapple videos, it's been awesome having so much watch recently. Great job and keep up the amazing work!

[@Tahldon-kun]

Plushie from the Sky totally effed me up bro. I was laughing and having a good time and then...

[@ItMeChis]

I finished Another Crab's Treasure yesterday and that game is phenomenal. I never got around to finishing Going Under (tried picking it back up today and I was super rusty) but it's likely that if you showed it off it got me to buy it and you using the soundtrack in these videos has always been a favourite of mine. With how good the crab music is I hope it finds ways into your future videos!

[@tschak5367]

"Wait you're no monster" "Im a frog" *lick* Thank you so much for these absolute golden moments during your reviews

[@nicholasleboeuf2938]

I'm grateful you mentioned Ys because that series is soooo underrated. Genuinely some of my favorite games.

[@analgesicproductions]

woo we're the Angeline era devs and love ys! especially oath.

[@nicholasleboeuf2938]

@@analgesicproductions i’m definitely going to lookout for when your game releases! I love the style of gameplay that is Oath and Origin :)
