Just from the screens and the fact that it looks somewhat similar to Knytt Stories I've gotta say I'm already really excited about this. I loved Knytt Stories like no one should, haha, and I love the fact that you're combining that style with storytelling and variation in gameplay. I'd love to help any way I can if you're in need. Good luck with it!

This sounds awful familiar and not in a Kyntt Stories kind of way. Hm...
 
Posted by Jon Lambert 20th September, 2010

I was gonna say looks like knytt stories, and sounds like that game someone was making a while back, in episodes, and at the end of each, the users suggested what should happen in the next episode. I think it was called "What Happens Next?" and it was made by Smirnoff... wait a second.

Also, the word is "whet"

"Whet", is it?

Anyways, looks good, if not familiar. Here's to you putting your own, unique spin on it! And even if it is the same, i'd still keep drinking the same brand of lager, even if people were forcing it down my throat like no tomorrow!!

@ Chris - Thanks! I also really enjoy Knytt and KS.

@ Smirnoff - I know this sounds really familiar to your "WHN" series, but I've been refining my ideas for this for a while. I started thinking of it before you released your games. I do hope you don't believe I copied your idea. And though even if I did, I'm trying to take my game in a whole new direction. With nearly full community involvement.

@ Jon - Oh, okay, I didn't know it was "whet."

@ Marko - I should really take spelling classes, eh?

But thanks for the encouragement.

It's Kny... I mean, it's The Story Continues!

Knytt Story Rip-off!! er.. Cave Stories Ri...no..gah!

Nah, looks good. You've nailed Nifflas style graphically, hope you catch the same exploratory atmosphere!

And why is it "whet"?

"You've nailed Nifflas style graphically"

Because that's oh so hard to achieve...
 
Posted by Matthew Wiese 20th September, 2010

Yes Adam, it takes a lot of skill you replicate that style. Let me see you do it.

@ EE - Exactly what I was thinking! It think wet is better.

Those screenshots do look fairly dull at the moment. It can't be that hard to take the style and add more detail to it.

But it sounds like you're going to try to add to the exploring bland worlds whilst collecting powerups to open more of the same bland world formula.

So good luck.

No, i thought it was "wet" too - in fact i'm sure of it!

This game garnished so much attention, i've kept coming back to see if there were any more comments. And now i've come back so the game itself interests me! So what if the style looks like another game? So what if Matthew did copy another game? Like no-one has EVER copied another person in the gaming world before!!

Favourited!

Thanks a lot Marko! Glad you are interested by my game and its premises.

Can't start a large project without motivation, and I think you've just given me it.

"Yes Adam, it takes a lot of skill you replicate that style. Let me see you do it"

lolol!

I hope you know I was being sarcastic. X)

can't be certain. Knytt fans completely over hype the game usually.
