Blasphemous II by Team 17

tarr · 23 August 2023, 18:19

Tomorrow is the day! Blasphemous II, distributed by the glorious Team 17 is going to be released. I already preordered it becuase the first instance of the game, Blasphemous, really felt like a "Super Amiga Game", something we dreamt about when we heard of a 32 bit Amiga coming out. The graphics, the music style, the Team 17 logo, all reminded my of what I wanted to play back in those days, and I really hope the sequel will be good.

Do you mean that an Amiga version of this game is coming or that it reminds you of old team'17 amiga games ?

Only that it reminds of Amiga great games flavour.

Yeah looking forward to it. Blasphemous is an absolute gem. ... If you like games with really weird imagery and a very abstract plotline.

I'm not sure if I'm going to play it close to release though, I might wait a couple of months. I kind of want to see where it goes DLC-wise if it follows the same line of development as the first game.

I spent a lot of hours playing it on PC last year. Very hard game with many side quests.

gimbal · 23 August 2023, 21:13

Still from all of the available Metroidvanias... actually one of the more doable ones.

You are kidding but i tried to redo some guitar tracks in mod, no way without using at least 300k for decent samples -_- unless we target 030+ so to use MP3s

Testing the style, i know that game is too big to be ported 1:1 but a VERY toned down version should be doable

Don't think that is really needed, you'd essentially end up with something that is very close to Odyssey, but not Blasphemous.

I like the smell of metroidvania in the morning, smell like "look what my miggy can do, you dirty unbelievers" ^^

Ha ha

Can't argue with that kind of passion. Eh. Start with the different title screens (because for each DLC there was a new one and each subsequent one was cooler looking than the one before). See how that works out.

Nice, weird and interesting little game...

Shoonay · 26 August 2023, 08:13

Yeah, the game's pretty fucking incredible. Based on the Spanish folklore/religion most of the things were inspired by real life events but don't wanna spoil anything, I just watched it on youtube since the skills aren't there anymore...

PS: There's a hidden demake arcade game inside the game, with cute pixeled graphics!

The Complitionist made a nice video about it but it spoils a lot of stuff:

Took me multiple tries to get that arcade done. Such a nice surprise...
