Added this to OP, PS4 owners will be happy
Tell me about it. Nuclear Throne running at 30fps was extremely jarring. I never got used to it, even after like 50 hours I was still thinking "This should really be 60fps".
I'm okay with a solid 30 for typical "cinematic" AAA games and such, but twitchy games need that 60.
Vambleer is weeeird, man. It's like that on PC too.
They did the same thing with Lufthausers and got lots of feedback on it, don't understand why they repeated it.

And I'm happy that the game seems really well optimized on PC. A dev said they got 50+fps on an i3 without a gpu, and has gotten as high as 170-244fps on his own computer

Nuclear Throne is 30fps on PC too, my only complaint with the game
Haha, it is jarring but I have kind of grown to like it. Maybe a style choice? Has a very quick and dirty feel. I'm pretty poor at both Luftrausers and Throne so maybe I should blame the fps.
Nuclear Throne, for me, was all about unlocking and finding a character that suits your playstyle best. The game didn't feel right to me until I unlocked Steroids and then it was perfect.
I never got good at Luftrausers.
Damn, that's great. Dodge Roll and Witch Beam (Assault Android Cactus) showing other devs what's up when it comes to Unity performance. It's each team's first game too I believe.
Those are also both great names for development studios, too.

Wonder if I can downsample 2k or 4k on a 970 with this.
why would you downsample on a game without 3D models?

The dev twitter account confirmed it'll be up tomorrow as well.
So excited to have most of the day to play this!

I've been on a roguelike kick lately, and ones with unique aspects to it have been catching my eye. Binding of Isaac, Spelunky, Rogue Legacy, Crypt of the Necrodancer have all been favorites of mine. This looks amazing so I'm probably going to pick it up and die a lot.
I've played a lot over the years and Isaac (Rebirth) is still my favorite, which is in part why I'm so excited for this as they share a lot in common. I like Nuclear Throne but it didn't grab me like I thought it would, probably because it's more arcadey and less dungeony...if that makes sense.

Thanks! My only OT title suggestion. Maybe next time
Just preordered the game. Looks too good to pass up, even if there are way too many games to play this month.

I have no idea. Just seems like the thing to do.

Looking forward to the impressions from you lucky PS4 owners

Just saw the post about 60fps on PS4. I had no clue. I was expecting 30fps so this is an awesome bonus.
Edit: I'm considering streaming tonight. Never really have before. I get out of work early tonight and should be home around 1am EST if anyone is interested in looking at it on PS4. Let me know, I guess.

Playing a little Salt and Sanctuary, just waiting for it to tick 10pm. Nice part about not being on the east coast is being able to play a bit before bed.

What's your twitch channel?

Looking at the Steam page images again, I just realized how smart it was to make the bullet enemies look like the bullet of the guns they're carrying. Means at a glance you can tell what kind of bullet patterns will be coming your way and how to dodge or evade.

I would just stream right from my PS4, but it is mcworked_you on Twitch.
It would be real slapdash. Haha.
It's "secretly 3D", apparently.
Speaking of which, I wonder how well it'll handle 4K.

Almost there.
We should perhaps have an organized way to remind devs, say, a couple of weeks before release that they can coordinate their releases to the same time.
This happens way too often!

Oh shit, you can get pets in this. Had no idea. Hype increased.

T minus 4 minutes. Let's go. Been waiting a year and a half for this.
game aint available on PC yet
it's not uncommon of them or other stores to give them the moment it releases
