Get ready to have your brain pulled out through your butt: LA-MULANA

I'm gonna be honest, I don't have a good OP for this

basically, La-Mulana is an adventure game about Indiana Jo- err, some other guy with a whip and a hat

it was originally a spiritual sequel to Maze of Galleous, which I never played, so I would compare La-Mulana to Castlevania or Metroid with a little bit of Zelda mixed in there, plus a large dose of OHMYGODTHISISFRUSTRATING

seriously, La-Mulana isn't a joke, the game takes somewhere around 20-30 hours to complete without a guide, and about 10-15 with a guide

but pussies use a guide, REAL men like Dr. Jones solve the puzzles by themselves

    Metadust is going to be pissed.

    EDIT: Also, I got stuck about 5 minutes in, and spent an hour trying to figure out what to do in those first three-four screens.

    Getting into the ruins proper was much harder than I imagined it would be. But once inside things make a little more sense, you'll get a pretty good grip on what puzzles you can solve and which you can't pretty fast.

    God damn bats, though. I hate the bats sooooo much

    well shit

    I should try this out

    although the fact that it has hard puzzles probably means I'd give up quickly

    the puzzles are similar to Zelda's I think

    it's the platforming and fighting that's really hard

    Okay, I just looked up the Wikipedia page and it was made recently

    I thought it was just an oldschool game that had a revival of popularity but it turns out it's a newish game made in oldschool style

    sounds pretty rad, though

    Also aren't there traps that will quite literally trap you. Like, so you can't escape and have to restart?

    You can teleport out using one of the ROMS you find that allows you to teleport back to the main town, and with the Glyph reader you can use these weird looking stones that have horns on them as Waypoints.

    AND FUCK YOU FOR MAKING THIS THREAD YOU FUCK

    You shouldn't be there yet, then. Later on,
    you get an item that lets you survive in water

    If I remember right, I drank a potion distilled from the wrong fairy and as a result, after beating the first phase of the last boss, I was disqualified from fighting the remaining phases and finishing the game

    but the experience cured me of my desire to finish the game, so it all turned out ok
    especially since I was nearly dead and I would have had no chance in hell of finishing the boss anyway.
