What are games that climbing is the main selling point, let it be coop or singleplayer? Just going upward in nature.I've been playing PEAK for the past weeks and it was great. It has left me a taste for more climbing but I can only think of Big Walk, but its more of a hiking game than anything.
lobby cock
>>724055478Getting Over It is one.
>fuck up my fall damageless run halfway through>don't want to go again, just play chess in the lobby>playing against myself for half an hour>lose
>>724055478this the peak thread? lobby doko?
>>724055880I was thinking of a more traditional climbing but yes that one is a pretty nice time sinker
Peaks of Yorewish it had coop
>>724055478I think my dream climbing game would lean more towards realism and simulating hiking. A fantasy climb game that makes you balance inventory weight, hunger, fatigue, and a broken ankle or something could end your run. Maybe some enemies sprinkled in that could knock you off the mountain.doesn't exist yet, and I'm not really into the more relaxing cartoonish vibes that make up this genre
>>724056036I mean pretty much is. Those weeks I mentioned have been with other anons and it has been a bliss. I'll host a few lobbies today once I get home.
LOBBY UP. 8 players. No item multiplier. Chain launchers replaced with magic beans and bounce shrooms. Daily seed.Ascent 6.steam://joinlobby/3527290/109775243824490247/76561198196432370

>>724059008what are foddylikes?
>>724058269Great I got the photon issue that won't let me rejoin. GL boys.
Has the game been unstable for anyone else lately? I used to host before without any issues, now with the same people I see them zipping around and I also get the mute/deaf bug mid-game
Grow up was fun.
Very challenging co-op pixel game where you climb a mountain.
>>724061859latest update definitely touched something more than just adding new seeds, mutedeaf bug seems quite persistent. my theory is either mods requiring an update or photon failing on their endill reinstall the game before hosting today
VR bean stalk climbing game.
>>724055478Playing Jusant on gamepass right now and while it is very limited because you can't really fall down or walk off edges it's still a nice narrative and view.Grow Home is a classic too. I think my favourite climber game is Sable.
>>724061859i think it may have been a mod issue but i had a bug where the next area wouldn't load for me whenever the campfire gets lit. seems like making a new profile and downsizing my mods fixed it but i haven't joined any lobbies recently
Indie game with an abstract kind of climbing feel. It's only 1 hour long.
>>724056559Death Stranding but more about climbing rather than terrain navigation?
ytyewha im thingknen uhuuhuhhhgohoooguhoguohuh
>Won't be able to peak for at least 12 more hoursSomeone better host a meme lobby by then.>>724064368Same, anon. Same.
>>724027972The artist is taking their sweet ass time with that stuff. It's been like what? 3 weeks? Finish it ffs. I wonder if they are waiting for Halloween to drop the finished version.
>>724064710nta but its a common issue with some of us who post wips and doodles :(also people just have their own lives
>>724055478>What are games that climbing is the main selling point, let it be coop or singleplayer?I posted this last thread but it's worth re-stating for anyone that missed it. Check out Cairn, it's just a demo, and singleplayer but it's extremely good. It's more technical, you control each limb to find safe holds which becomes intuitive almost instantly. Has survival elements like hunger and thirst, with base camping to rest and cook your tendies.Even the demo has been updated several times based on player feedback, so the devs actually give a fuck. It's an indie title but it's polished. Out Q1 2026https://store.steampowered.com/app/1588550/Cairn/
Unironically death stranding
>>724055478White Knuckle is the best
I have a gameplay idea, just a shower thought for some light discussions, maybe:>Dynamic Hunger rate:>If your Stamina is not drained (walk, standing still, etc.), hunger builds up at a slower rate, even with weights and other afflictions active.>Draining Stamina expedites the hunger rate. Achieving maximum rate of (suggested) 1.4x multiplier on top of Ascent modifiers at zero stamina.Gameplay implications:>Sprinting is now saved for crucial parts.>Can't spam shift jump to move anymore if you have zero reserve.>Making long climbs too often is now even more risky in the long run.>Expedition leaders (ones that often go ahead and drop down rope/tools) WILL get hungry faster, and eventually a new Scout will have to lead the team.Caveats:>Further discourages people in big lobbies from going back and save others ("why should I do that when I can just relax around the campfire")
>>724057190Three lobbies, that's all I can spare.>steam://joinlobby/3527290/109775243834450601/765611980126058648 scouts, 1.25x items, text chat support, i'll let players decide the ascent
I WILL take a berrynana peel and slip it under you when you're not looking

>>7240655945/8
Big Walk was announced a ways back and Peak suddenly swooped in and started the coop journey game craze. They need to hurry up and release it soon.
>>724065594lobby full! bing bong decided Ascent 4, happy climbing scouts
>>724066978No, they don't.Big Walk is fundamentally a different game.It's a long-form jaunt through a winding landscape finding and solving little puzzles, rather than attempting to survive against a harsh environment on a time limit.
>>724067414It's the same idea. That's why I used the term journey. RV There Yet is blowing up and I would have a hard time believing they didn't land on that game jam idea because of Peak and that players aren't flocking towards it because of Peak. Especially since my friends and I also bought it for that reason.
>>724065594full?
>>724067943>>724067236
>>724067634RV There Yet looks like Mesa turned into a full game>>724067943Full
>>724067634I mean if we're going down this road, I might as well invoke the overarching term that rose up a bit right before Peak dropped:Friendslop.Games which have little merit solo and are carried by their gameplay with friends.That being said, Peak is damn fun solo too, so it's not an exact fit. :^)My boss at work loves these kinds of games and RV There Yet is one he literally mentioned to me a few days ago alongside Pizza Deathlivery.
>>724068223>Talking about games with your bossishyddt
>>724068223I'm not trying to coin a term here. I've just been looking forward to Big Walk for a while since it looked great at the time, hope it comes out soon, is actually good and doesn't get lost under the sure deluge of Peak clones coming.
>>724068342Say what ya want Anon, my boss is a bro and he only invokes authority when absolutely necessary. Chillest dude around and has over half a dozen staff in his gaming circle.
i can make a lobby if anyone wants to play. let me know.
>>724068423Fair. I have been looking forward to it too.We can rest assured it will be good though since it's House House.
>>724065191True. Shame that Abyss fucking sucks.

blobby boko
no lobby...no doko...
>>724065180Death stranding is more about making sure your cargo is better than you are.And the end game just becomes speedrun central.t. Somebody who did all deliveries with LLL on both the original and director's cut.Best late game missions were the roadster ones where you're having to micromange a racing car with little to no turning power. With only seconds to spare if you want the S rank.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3olAy25ROUI picked up the made in abyss game thanks to peak.
>>724068423same here it's is my most anticipated game. I think it's not going to be similar to Peak at all really. I think more exploration and uncovering the story via environmental puzzles. Sort of like a silly co op Myst type of game
>>724065090Is it good? I was interested but the trailer of the woman screaming at nothing pushed me away a bit.
someone host a goddamn lobby before I go insane

>>724055478Peaks of yore is excellent for a 0 hiking pure climbing experience. White knuckle has incredible vibes for urban exploration but there’s also soft horror and combat, which I love, but it has to be to your tastes. >>724073130Jusant is visually gorgeous but it’s the first game I ever played where I skipped all the lore. I’ve played a lot of ponderous “explore the ruin and become one with nature” type games like journey or Abzu and Jusant was the first one that really fucking grated me for some reason.
>>724075264ctrl+f you dumb ape

is nobody seriously gonna mention peaks of yore? *facepalm*
>>724061971great shout I totally forgot about these games

>>724067634>>724068035I played RV there yet with some friendsIts very linear and simple, with physics based puzzles that are obvious and can be forced through. Each leg of a journey has a checkpoint at the end. It actually reminded me more of human fall flat (minus the platforming) than peak. Its very fun still, but slow and requires a lot of fiddling to set planks and other objects right etc.Every once in a while a bear will spawn and completely tear up the rv and wreck your shit.Its not even frustrating outside of the bears, more of a chill journey with a lot of parking and setting up the winch to pull your way out. Not much customizability or flexibility in how you approach the journey though. The best and hardest part is that you have to do stick shift when driving by holding Ctrl and moving your mouse
new seed lobby koko>steam://joinlobby/3527290/109775243854226405/7656119801260586410 players, 1.5x items, text chat support, ascent 4 for a relaxed climb
Got fixes and new features to soulmates mod, gotta find guinea pigs somewhere to test if it's not broken.Also, mod that applies random modifiers to biomes like:>all red/orange scouts emit heat>all damage reduced by 95%, all damage is curse damage>get at least one pawn (has to be carried in hands or thrown) to the top or everyone gets 5% curse>all food is poisonous>reduce gravity by 10%>scouts are bouncyand so on. Yes or no?
>>724055478Baby steps, but that's more crass and trolling. Idk about relaxing like peak and not just a bunch of unity assets thrown every where
I don't know if any other games do this, but I feel like having scouts make eye contact with nearby players is a really underappreciated mechanic.
>>724080108>all red/orange scouts emit heat>all damage reduced by 95%, all damage is curse damage>get at least one pawn (has to be carried in hands or thrown) to the top or everyone gets 5% curse>all food is poisonous>reduce gravity by 10%>scouts are bouncyHoly shit, we can barely make it to the top as simple pairs. This is just outright evil. I like it, but you should add a toggle somewhere to change settings on the fly before departure (if that's even possible) >gotta find guinea pigsWould be down, but I'm going to be super busy for like 8 more hours. Do tell how well that goes.
>>724055478guys I got really sad and scared thinking about what'll happen when these threads eventually slow downwill I lose all the anon friends I've made through all our brief silly interactions? I want to keep playing this forever
>>724080452No, I mean a mod separate from Soulmates. And only applying one or two modifiers per biome.
>>724080471There's this thing called "adding friends on Steam"
>>724080108Lower the hunger meter drain. The x2 is too much especially if youre adding on poison damage. At least do .75 of it, you did .5 damage when that's not nearly as close of an issue.
>>7240799463 slots left before departing
>>724078606>>724079358see>>724079946
>>724080730For soulmates? Only if I halve the hunger restoration too.
I wish more non-shooter co-op games like this were a thing. I'm particularly shocked no one's bit the bullet on puzzle stuff again like Portal 2.
>>724075861fair enough. there wasnt actually that much lore desu and I was enjoying the vibe enough that i didnt mind it, but you can easily skip it all and still enjoy the game purely for vibes
>>724080608>a mod separate from SoulmatesYeah, I got that first part but they're probably going to be sister mods for a while.>only applying one or two modifiers per biomeSounds good, especially if its random. I still think having a way to filter the most annoying or run ending modifiers client/server side would be a good idea, but I have no idea how difficult or inconvenient it would be to implement.
I am sorry CEO!!!!!!
>>724081039true, and that is basically what i did so fair play. i did like the space whales so it got me in the end regardless
>>724080837full and successfully crashed the plane, happy climbing
>>724080934>I'm particularly shocked no one's bit the bullet on puzzle stuff again like Portal 2You haven't been searching much have ya.Human: Fall Flat, We Were Here (series), In Sink, Escape Simulator, and Escape Academy all have multiplayer. Going through my lists, we also have Bokura, Bokura: planet, Tik Tok a Tale For Two, The Past Within, Unsolved Case, Unboxing the Cryptic Killer, Parallel Experiment, Operation: Tango, Puzzle Compound...Teardown (that physics heist voxel game) is getting multiplayer eventually. It's in-dev now.Unless you specifically meant first-person co-op physics puzzles explicitly like Portal 2, in which case..Workshop. There are over 160k co-op puzzle chambers in the Workshop, a fair few of which are in sets of sequential levels.
>>724071581gg boysMaybe the real Peak were the friends we molested along the way.

i will add everyone from these lobbies
>>724083275a steam group might be good
>>724082768You probably know this already but to try and make it happen less often, try to avoid putting backpacks down on slopes, next to walls, and upon treetops.

>>724087724It was a grim reminder
i added squink and he started to send me furry porn...
>>724083525It's not the physics bug, sometimes backpacks just straight up disappear from your back. You can also disappear items by just dropping them and picking them up repeatedly until they appear in your hands but don't show up in your inventory bar. When you drop the item again it will just vanish. I guess the game tries to synchronize all item and player state constantly between all players and sometimes it gets into a conflicting state due to desyncs and it either deletes the item or duplicates it.

>>724086321>>724087547Same, I'd like to hang out more with a lot of peakers here, but even when I overcome the anxiety for a moment and actually add people I never end up talking to them because I don't want to bother them, I feel more comfortable in group chats since there's less pressure to carry on a conversation. And many people have completely private profiles, so it's hard to find something in common to talk about or try and play something else since I have no idea what they even buy/own/play and it feels awkward to ask.
>>724087547You're overthinking it.Anyways, like that other Anon said, a steam group would solve a lot of problems, and personally I think it would be great.Still, I would wait until we sense the things are slowing down with no sign of increased activity for the future, no sooner.

>>724070909>Is it good? I was interested but the trailer of the woman screaming at nothing pushed me away a bit.IMO It's really good, there's no screaming that I noticed, but the gameplay is actually quite addictive. It's more careful and technical than Peak, the climb mechanics have you place each limb on places on the rock. It sounds finicky but once you get used to it you can climb quite fast, then you reach parts of the rock that are hard and you have to kinda explore different routes to try and get up. It's quite different from Peak, but it's good in its own right.The demo is only small, if you're on the fence just try it. You'll know in like 10 minutes if you're going to enjoy it. I'll be getting it on launch day for sure.

I just got another supremely retarded game-mode idea.>ALIEN One scout is the designated Xeno, his goal is to eliminate everyone and be the last and only "scout" at the campfire. To complete his mission, he is equipped with one of those grab launcher things (with a cooldown) and an infinite source of heat, he can only satiate his hunger (50-70%+) by eating his "fellow" scouts. After every successful or unsuccessful run, the Xeno changes. The other scouts are to survive by lighting the campfire or eliminating the Xeno, but due to changes in the atmosphere they take extra cold damage at night (Scout pile heat should change to negate this extra effect and encourage people to stick together). >IssuesIt would have to be a very extensive mod and the idea sounds fine on paper, but it's probably really fucking ass in-game.
>>724117329I mean if you want a stupid game modification: Ball & Chain, all Scouts start with a large physics object (usually a rock) chained to one of their ankles.

>>724130592avoid this man, understood

>>724116728>spoilerAdvanced Console, it has very helpful hosting tools like item spawning or teleportation and revives. Can also fix some common desync bugs for other players. Not sure about the first question however, I know there is a mod that displays a red vertical line on top of scouts from some screenshots but thats it.
>>724130689well, if color stereotypes are a thing of the past, can i get any info on specific people i should follow / avoid? you don't have to namedrop them, just describe their cosmetics and mannerisms etc
>>724130996its not even that required since pretty much everyone including the mischievous ones will help you out lots of people go above and beyond when it comes to trying to save people
>>724131116oh, that's good to know then

>>724137274Direction doesn't matter at all.Also, and this is pretty stupid, cover doesn't actually matter. What matters is shade. When there's a blizzard, seek spots where the shadow is the darkest.This does often coincide with cover, because narrow, closed spaces will have darker shadows, but you can also often avoid blizzards by hanging out under trees.
I love you guys
>>724139283>but you can also often avoid blizzards by hanging out under trees.But trees' shadows are dynamic though? As in, their shadows change depending on the sun's direction

>>724116657The first two zones are boring both visually and mechanically. You climb to the vantage point and jump down to the next platform or some nearby rope. There is no route planning. At most you go out of your way for supplies if you need them. Visually it's a collapsed railway with a few outposts and altars. And in the second zone you can't see half the time. Flashlight is only useful if you're near the structure, but there is no reason to be near it in the first place. There are a few supply stashes, but that's it. Don't think I've found even a single note there. Then Mass sucks as an enemy - it's extremely easy to dodge or hit it, unless it clips through textures. And if you dodge it and it bodyblocks the only route you have to progress you just wait. Wow, what a great design. The third zone isn't that great, but it's decent enough as it has enemies and different traversal options like those quake jump pads, flies, whales and flying chain things.

Been playing a lot of White Knuckle and struggling to try to make it to the Abyss. This game has the best climbing mechanics of any game I have played, simple but with a high skill ceiling and most importantly getting better means being faster. Too much of BotW and Peak are slowly climbing a wall with no way to influence your speed other than jumping at the end.

>>724158339Does it count as FOTM if it's the flavor 5 months running?
>>724151343We Peaked. Brought a Blue Berrynana to the Peak for one of the lost Scouts.
>>724151343gg boysFUCK PHOTON ERRORS
>>724159080>FUCK PHOTON ERRORSYeahPhoton server's been crap for anyone else lately?
>>724151343Shitshow of a game with proton errors and mute/deaf bugGot too cocky and paid the price, oh well
>>724159294You would have been fine in 99% of cases, but an entire array of unfortunate circumstances led to making SURE you died.
>>724140440WHY'D YA DO IT STEVEN!?
Vital mods in general but especially for hosting? I'm moving over to the mod manager and I don't want to host a broken error-filled lobby.
>>724133485The name field really should just autoban anyone stupid enough to fill it out.
>>724081304Sorry for what? My scoutmaster taught me to not be ashamed of my stamina bar, especially when it's such a good size and all.
>>724159247why is he sad?
>>724160503>PEAKER Everyone should have this one, not just hosts. It lets you decrease the max velocity of players who are glitching out.>Advanced ConsoleMostly for teleporting people who are stuck in the void. It also lets you fix the bug where a player is stuck holding a "fake" item.>Peak Luggage ItemsIf you want to remove chain launchers from the game to prevent crashes.>Reconnect CatchupFor people who join midgame. >ItemSpawnerTo spawn missing marshmallows and items that dissapear because of desync. >ItemMultiplierIf you want to host big lobbies.
>>724161139You're a saint, I was missing a couple of these. Thank you anon.
>>724161139>>ItemMultiplier>If you want to host big lobbiesNo item big lobbies with repeat cannibalism are way funnier.
>>724161361cannibalism is boring because people won't say they need food, they'll just eat you
what mod lets you change what spawns in luggage
>>724162305peak luggage items, but you need to tune up the config file quite a bit, the developer enabled everything but chest pieces to spawn on them by default

>>724163726ouch, my gpu
>>724161705I never "needed" foodI strategically stuggle for 15min, relying on your help to pass basic obstacles only to eat you at the very MOMENT I hit 75 hunger, pocket your items and I think to myself,>It's not easy being green
>>724165019Was that because the airport was filled with vines and all sorts of random shit?
Spoiler, hard gay sex.
>>724163726full?
>>724156298>>724157130We did it and luggage should work fine the next time I hostNo more bags!

>>724166208i love our medic so much, bros...
>>724055478Firewatch is probably easily the best out of all of the 'mountain-related' games.
Steam. Group.
>>724169242you don't play the game, why are you shitting it up
>>724168505i dislike him
The abyss approaches.
>>724055478big wank lmao
>>724065090I played the demo to this one a while back and it surprised me in a good way. It's got some jank and some weirdness here and there, but overall it's a way more realistic and straight-forward take on the genre than any other climbing game I've tried. It ignores the LOL SO WACKY nonsense of other games and just goes with good mechanics and a nice environment. The way you've got to think about thinks like your limb strength and center of gravity takes a little bit of getting used to but ends up feeling really satisfying, and you get way fewer situations like in certain other games where you can just support your entire body weight on one overextended limb. The actual exploration and climbing is pretty relaxing even if there are some tense moments here and there.However I fully expect this game to flop, because it doesn't rely on colorful babby graphics, "funny" multiplayer shenanigans, or dumb memes to trick streamers into shilling it to the brainless zoomer audience.
>>724159204Yeah, before I could go for longer than a week without a single Photon error. Now it seems like it happens at least once a day.
>>724168745>Firewatch>Game
yeah that sure was fun going back to save people multiple times and then having cactus thrown at me until I get left behind haha yeah I didn't want to play anyway
>>724171407owned
>>724171514>>724171407honestly yeah, unless you're constantly screaming on microphone like an annoying faggot nobody is going to go back for you because the lobbies have turned into circlejerk clique shit and the same 8 faggots in every lobby will leave you behind unless you're groomable or one of the other 7 faggots
>>724171407yeah i don't mind being the target of shenanigans from time to time, but when it's every fucking game it makes me wonder why i'm even playing. and i know hurr durr it's just a game but somehow i doubt the people who keep killing others for no reason would find it fun if they were the target.
nigger move ikknigger move
>>724171970It was okay before because people jumped down to rescue whoever was murdered, now you have people like broken actively saying shit like 'just leave them behind' about people who aren't circle jerking with him
>>724172168>hes mad that broken stopped him from slipping people with peels again
>>724172276??? Waffle peels are basically a harmless joke and everyone hops down when someone gets peeled because the clique is usually with him when he does it (to someone in the clique), broken is an actual grooming annoying faggot?
>>724172408>broken>groomingthe most he talks about in lobbies is what path looks the best to climbpeople like jiji are the groomers
They say that you must offer your firstborn son to the Shadow Clique to join their ranks.
>>724172526Broken literally never shuts the fuck up, he's a groomer grooming everyone around him to deal with his annoying faggot presence and climb the mountain how he thinks it should be climbed
