TUNIC - Ruthless Soulsy Sprawling Exploration RPG

[@Telekq3]

Fun fact, if you read the manual it shows you on screen where the iFrames occur during the roll animation. It even neatly labels it the safe zone and hints that you should check for the smoke/dust animation.

[@capnheehee8103]

Came here to say this. Frustrating to watch it be missed 30 seconds after it was the topic of narration, lol. It's Splat's trigger-happy finger when it comes to in-game text that does it -- he's gonna avoid the reading even if it hurts.

You can clearly tell how this game took so long to develop. There are a million little details.

[@DamsdelDrennon]

The blend of cute art and precise fights works so well. I also love those secret paths, great hint to the level of care for the level design and exploration ahead.

[@odmcclintic]

I love a game that gives the player control in the first 5 seconds

[@Damiv]

Clearly you aren't a Final Fantasy fan then.

[@DarkKnightTrinity]

Wow this game is genuinely beautiful. I usually don't care much about graphics, but something about this game is super appealing.

[@igorthelight]

They have a nice artstyle: fox is cute and animations are fluid ;-)

[@neilarcher2551]

Yeh that's a wishlist for me. Straight into the game, sweet lighting effects, challenging gameplay and tons of secrets.

[@nickmasters8474]

Most games that splatter plays do not appeal to me. But this one jumped out at me in the first few seconds, and I knew I would have to get it. Bought it a day or to later (couple days after it came out!) and I LOVE it. I grew up on old NES Zelda and Link to the Past on SNES. This scratches that itch so well. It's also just beautiful to look at, with fantastic music. Game play is great. I'm not as natural at these games as Splatter, so I'm dying a lot, but I love it. Wish more games like this would come out!

[@erl7466]

this is a brilliant game. it’s not super original, but it is extremely engaging and gives every old school gamer a place to flex those Link derived skills we thought we’d never use again! i’m playing through right now and watching splat do something i completely need to go back to the main overworld and do! good stuff

[@Utmoon]

Snowmobiles are better than jet skis.

[@lawtskie8854]

This game looks stinking adorable and fun, it kind of reminds me of Death's Door which is one of my faves. Welp the Splat hath spoken so mine wallet shall hurt once again.

[@fogstorm5531]

I sucked at Death’s Door

[@jaredmccue2445]

Death's Door definitely looks and probably feels better.

[@todalio9238]

Love this gameplay from you. As much as you try to point details of the game, also pointing out how it could appeal to people, while enjoying yourself. Good job!

[@krist6028]

Yelling "got em!" with such joy. Perfect.

[@elbonnybar]

*Splat find Pink Powder* Splat: "We have found fox cocain" also, damn, this game is pretty good, it had me looking for secrets paths an really watching out for clues on the level. the fact you can't read makes it the feeling of adventure be more noticeable, if that makes any sense

[@MarieAxelsson]

This game looks fantastic!

[@ts25679]

When you opened with "Today we're going to be checking out" my brain autocompleted with "the long awaited Tunic". When you said it a second later I had a serious clitch in the Matrix moment. Not quiet deja vu just a blip of prescience

I'd take quiet déjà vu over prescience any day.* *just because prescience is so dificult to spel.

"Accustomed to getting bamboozled" - preach Splattie!

[@Deceneu66]

I played the demo. My kid and I liked it a lot ! Thanks for the video.

[@dimarg00]

it's looks as a Death's door copy...which is good :D

[@BatAttackZero]

Except it began development long before Death’s Door, and its look hasn’t changed.

[@aesrys]

No one ever feels bad after champagne? Man, that stuff gives me the absolute worst hangovers. The "feels like my brain is trying to pound its way straight out of my skull through my eyeballs" kind of hangover.

[@saviourself687]

I've said it before, but the Splat "Quality of Life" improvement in terms of the quick blast on controls is great work. I also am a hater of two hands on keyboard (I feel oddly better about using the mouse to attack etc even if the game doesn't require twin stick aiming).

[@TheIndigo1child]

Same. I just can't play games that need both hands on the keyboard, it just feels so wrong lol.

[@audiblevideo]

Splat you're not solid you are fluid, just encapsulated fluid ;)

[@godoftwinkies574]

Everything is basically a fluid, and if not u can be turned into one by heat.

[@christophermoralesclark]

All I have to say about the 2 of the same material not breaking eachother, is “Marble meets Windshield” & “matching vibrational frequencies”

[@godoftwinkies574]

And the classical "fight fire with fire".

[@ipointmistakes]

The manual did mention the s on page 15

[@rickperriwinkle]

Awesome that you weren't sure if there were s seconds after being on a screen describing the s.

[@sage51423]

You have to REALLY pay attention in this game to learn stuff. Especially at the instruction pages you get. Super important.

[@sage51423]

Also your lock on changes the angle of the view of the world which will show a lot of hidden paths.

[@emma70707]

Our non-fluid bodies are, in fact, mostly fluid. ;) The fluid is just contained in cells, vessels, organs, and the lymphatic system

[@bobbusc]

I don't think the fox is illiterate. I think he's an invasive species who can't read the local language.

[@BatAttackZero]

Yeah, he’s washed up on the shore, after all. A stranger to these lands.

I was waiting for this release for a while. Gonna play this after I have "finished" Elden Ring and Death's Door.

[@LaserStorm117]

When I saw this on Steam this morning, I couldn't believe my eyes. I thought Tunic was NEVER ACTUALLY COMING OUT, but here we are and it is in my possession. I can't believe I got no notice, too. Wtf is the follow function good for?!

[@Promatim]

This game does something I'll often do in D&D. If a boss can two-shot a player? Don't have them chunk for a little over half, have them chunk for like 90%. Same end result, but much higher drama.

"organism should be solid" well, aaactually animal cells don't have a cell wall. the cell membrane they do have is basically made out of fat. and the cell is filled with liquid, soo...as long as you don't have an exoskeleton or are plant or fungus with a real cell wall then I guess you are pretty much liquid on the outside, my dude xD . it's just that you are less wobbly than a giant amoeba because you are made out of smaller bubbles that are more stable due to...reasons.

[@Blunterx420]

Been watching gameplay of this game and it looks very charming and fun to play with all the little details it gives you. I'll most likely play this after I beat Deaths Door which is oddly similar to this game and probably why I'm keen to play this one.

Just went to wishlist this on Steam, and it says the game plans to unlock in approximately 1 hour (it's currently 11:32 am Eastern / 8:32 am Pacific). Good timing! Update: $30?! It looks fun, but not THAT fun.

[@NatetheGr891]

Pay $10 for Gamepass

[@mitchellgoldstein1573]

You’d pay over 60 dollars for open world games with bloat and repetitive chore quests though I’m guessing. The game takes 15-20 hours to unlock everything as well as an always engaging game with no filler…

[@aaronatkinson177]

I feel like it'll please so many long term zelda fans 😀

[@Warthoger21]

Sometimes I wish you just read everything it says on the screen. There was description of invulnerability frames and that you can look at the dust particles to make sure you won't be hit during the roll. This is not the first time you are opening a hint and don't read it and then complain about it the rest of the video.

[@centraltexasbear9973]

please play more. also what the hell is an i frame?

[@MarkDeSade100]

It stands for "invincibility frames" or "invulnerability frames", same thing. It means a brief period of time during a movement animation when your character cannot take damage. If you play any "souls-like" game you're pretty much guaranteed to have a dodge roll move and these are usually your best source of i-frames, although there are other ways to get them.
