OMG that is crazy!! Would you mind sharing how many species there are total? I don't know how to tell how close to 100% I am ^^;; Also any advice on the stone where you have to avoid the warp to the softlock to get there would be appreciated-- I can get there but I have no idea how I'm supposed to get back to a save without softlocking afterwards
Yeah, I figured, it's trying to find a way to a save after scanning the stone takes forever when I don't even know where to go on the first jump and missing it means I have to reset and lose ~5 minutes of progress ;.; Congratulations anyhow; knowing it is possible is pretty cool :)
oh shoot i've broken that room in the latest update! :0 the only way to get out now is to reset the game and load your save... (i'll try to fix this today!)
How do you number the rooms? While reading the comment section, I saw stuff like room 2.5 or 5.7 and I have no idea what that means. Also, how do you do the double jump thing?
Edit: I also just realized that you can start the boss, exit the room and come back and you will be able to finish the game even before you start the second phase lol
Well, I couldn't replicate it, but I just activated the first phase of the boss, left the boss room, went back and the boss was still active (I could start the next "attack"), but the barrier was gone and I could just finish the demo. I'm not sure, but it could be related to quitting and reloading a bunch of times on the same save before the bossfight. I also visited the out of bounds section.
Anyway, I found another way to practically skip most of the boss. After starting to scan the big bird during the first phase, it will normally push you off the platform, but if you start scanning again while being pushed, you'll just clip through the bird. If you already knew about that and decided not to remove it, I think you should make the timing more precise or make the strat harder in some other way, because I actually found this on my first playthrough and it feels way too easy.
Edit: I actually switched from Past Simple to Present Simple in the middle of a sentence and then went back to Past Simple, it should be fixed now.
Edit 2: Wow, that's a ton of text in a single comment.
I tried to replicate your bug as well, but couldn't get it to happen. I may need to research it further...
Yeah, I knew about the scan skip, but good call - it's too easy to do accidentally. I made it more precise, so it's something you can still do but not as easily! This change will be included in the next demo update.
Thanks for the long comment! :> It already made the game better.
Could you make the tree in 2-3 scannable? The rest of the plants are and that one makes me sad :( Well, the rest besides the grass on dirt blocks, but that's different!
And is there an easier way to get to 1.6 than by double jump from 2.5 to 2.6? By trying this jump i sometimes fall down by the waterfall and have to either go very long way around back or quit and start again at save at 1.8.
Good on dev for making release be "when it done" instead of a year. Even if it took a few updates. Gotta keep a healthy relationship with these projects.

I think I've forgotten too much to be of use here. I don't think you can lock yourself out of 100% though?

There's any map that I can compared?
Maybe this one! (Warning, contains demo spoilers!)

the numbering is shown when
scanning the signposts!
the double jump is a
frame-perfect trick you can do by scanning midair.
Hmm, finish the game before starting the second phase? ;0 Do you mean you were able to skip the third phase somehow? How?
Well, I couldn't replicate it, but I just activated the first phase of the boss, left the boss room, went back and the boss was still active (I could start the next "attack"), but the barrier was gone and I could just finish the demo.

The numbers are also shown in the map and make a grid from 1-8 in the top right to 8-1 in the bottom left.

love the game telling me congrats, also I love the fact that we get credits, very nice game
XD I love how the game tells you that you're out of bounds, though I had to repeat the trek a few times due to a certain hidden pit
any chance you can show the keyboard buttons in the main menu instead of exbone buttons next update?
like a option to toggle either one would be nice and being able to to aim with the mouse too
also i loved the game before, glad to play it updated now
hmm the game should show keyboard buttons if you're using keyboard to play it!
i'm planning to jump into the version 1.1 of the game engine in the future, so it should be much easier to rebind your keys.
could of been a issue on my end then, using a old af laptop
updating the engine might help ye and thx for responding
Hooray, new update. Are there any new areas available?
nope, just polishing :) i'll post a devlog about it later!
devlog out now! https://borbware.itch.io/emuurom/devlog/568214/0821-time-for-world-domination
Any update on progress? (no pressure :) )
Let's see...
- Lately I've focused on bugfixing & gameplay fixes, which is actually the reason why I haven't had that much new stuff to showcase
- But! I finally got the second-to-last bossfight done a few weeks ago. Not that much left!
- Yesterday, I finished the EMUUROM OST. All songs are now done!
It's all coming together, slowly but surely!
thanks
I call the first annual "Meeting of the Hats" to order! :)
Haa, congrats!
There's one more hat to be found....
When will we see the full version? :-)
Hi, is there a way to scan the cloud in 5.7?
And is there an easier way to get to 1.6 than by double jump from 2.5 to 2.6? By trying this jump i sometimes fall down by the waterfall and have to either go very long way around back or quit and start again at save at 1.8.
Nope, afaik scanning that cloud is impossible.
And no, that's the only way to 1.6...
BUT! I don't want to let you and other out-of-bounds explorers down, so I made the OOB areas a bit easier to traverse in 0.7.0.2, which is out NOW ^^

There's a smiley face in the demo end screen thingy :)
