Prodigy Students

(Since a certain Absol blog did it, I'm throwing my hat in the AU ring. These three are prodigy students of @harmonia-university! The trio only attend classes they're excel in. Oaken is a math specialist, specifically algebra. And Mouse and Grey are Battling students. After their classes, they go back to their dorms to study middle school level classes online. Mouse is very quiet and barely speaks, and when they do, it's low mumbling. But most of the time, they use sign language to communicate, or their hilt friend, Elizabeth. Grey is very protective over his friend Mouse, the two are almost never apart. Oaken attends different classes than his two friends, but still hangs out with them. He's not very talkative but he's very friendly.)

Underhero

If the hero was crushed before the final boss, then who's going to rise up and defeat the big bad boss? Our minion Mask Kid, of course!

We test our platforming and rhythmic skills as we level up to defeat our boss in this RPG with colorful environments and characters to meet. Enemies consider themselves our allies, so let's hope the truth isn't revealed too harshly with Groovy~ sword crits.

—��⭐️——

All of these games hold a special place in my heart, and if you’d want to try them out, tell me what you think! Every price listed is the price on steam. My own personal reviews of these games are- well, all of them were good in their own unique ways, I just have an eclectic taste.

[zecoritheweirdone]

SO. UNDERHERO.

When i first heard you talking about this game, i was still kinda in undertale recovery so i thought jt was an undertale fangame but in a more fantasy classic rpg-style

Very clearly i was dead wrong lmao

I genuinely like the premise of a young mook killing the hero and taking their place, and the artstyle made it REALLY appealing to me! Then once i learned it was adjacent to the mario and luigi rpgs i was pretty excited!

The world is such a fun place, with the villain hq being like an office building and the other worlds are cool in their own way, especially the ghost world but I'm incredibly biased lmao. The characters are fun, too! Cereza especially was great, and of course i too love puzzleman lol

The gameplay is fun! The battle system is unique and interesting while still having a good ol rpg kick to it, and i love that! Though admittedly it feels weird that the game is so low level-oriented, i feel super weird about beating the final boss at level 16 lol

The music... had its ups and downs for me. Some songs were genuinely amazing, but others just kinda felt boring

Of course, the game itself isnt perfect. Sometimes it can feel kinda bland, they really didn't try with the pause screen and im not the biggest fan of the ui (the mask kid's mask staring at me in the upper left corner is... unsettling, imo), and i never really got over how floaty and mildly sluggish the game could be. Also the physics were weird. Also i don't really like world 3 all that much lol

But overall this feels like that game that you look at the box art of while at toys r us, beg your parents to get it for you, they oblige, and you adore it and wanna talk about it to your friends and they have no idea what you're talking about, and you feel alone in loving it until you go online and either find a bustling fan community or find out a big youtuber made a video on it and new fans are entering the series nonstop

....was that a long winded analogy? Lol

Anyways i can totally see why you love this game and while i don't think it'll effect my brain as much as it did yours, i had a great time with it and definitely wanna reccomend it to friends and stuff!

YEAHHHH !!! tho it may have had some ups and downs,, i’m glad that you ended up enjoying it overall!!!!

also: yeah, i get that 😔,,, i also ended up trying to reload my save to see if there was anything else, but- alas.

apparently the devs are thinkin ‘bout making a sequel some time in the future, though! after they finish the current game they’re now workin on, that is,,,

[friendshapedplant]

Thinkin of trying to do my first stream next week, likely Wednesday or Thursday? I got Spring Break so I think this is the perfect time >:3

I've narrowed myself down to two games I wanna play, those being EverHood or UnderHero

Both are indie games I've have sitting in my game library forever that I've heard amazing things about!

A lil snippet bout the games for the uninformed, based on the Steam pages:

UnderHero is a 2D side-scrolling RPG adventure game. It tells the story of a world where the chosen hero has failed and an underling of the main villain takes his place as the new “hero”. Join Elizabeth IV and the little Masked Kid as they journey across the Chestnut Kingdom to defeat your evil boss, Mr. Stitches! Meet friends, foes and other weird characters in the mysterious world of UnderHero. The main gimmick of this game is it's a turned based combat system, but without the turns! Precisely timed actions are your most powerful weapons.

EverHood is an unconventional adventure RPG that takes place in an inexpressible world filled with amusing musical battles and strange delightful encounters. To put it simply: You are in for a ride. All thats given on the story is you control a wooden doll whose arm has been stolen by a blue gnome. The combat is seemingly rhythm and bullet dodging based with a great soundtrack to compliment it.

I will make an attempt to make these games accessible, especially those who are photosensitive. I know EverHood explicitly points out that there are accessibility settings in this regard, and according to DoesTheDogDie.com, there isn't any flashing lights, but there is "shakey cam." Regardless I'll look into the settings for both!

That being said....

If anyone wanna go give me a follow on my Twitch for the upcoming Debut Stream, here my link! :3

(also if u a mutual that wants to catch the stream and there's a day that works best for u lemme know I'll take that into consideration)

👀 💖 💬 for the underhero ask meme? :D

👀 How did you discover Underhero?

I learned about Underhero through Kyzer's Underhero let's play announcement years ago. And it was only recently that I had the money to purchase it.

💖 Favorite character?

My favorite character is none other than the underhero themself, the Masked Kid. Their journal entries really made me feel for them. Little bean just wants to be a hero, and I just want to them all the hugs and give them a treat.

💬Anything specific you want to say about Underhero?

I'm just disappointed that there isn't enough recondition of the game because it's such a good game. The game's plot is very good at making you thing one thing and just pulls the rug out from under you.

Just... Check out the game!

Chapter 4: Sneaking Out

Back at the Chestnut Kingdom, Princess Cereza looked out her bedroom window with a crestfallen look. All she could think about was her friends she knew for a short time. She gazes into the sunset as if Mouse and Ellie would suddenly appear over the horizon. It's been months since their disappearance. The princess felt hopelessness clutch her heart. But she refused to let it completely take hold of her.

Some people would tell her that it was just a few days and to just forget about them, but what would they know? They weren't the ones who masqueraded as a masked kid to find the hero's weapon and wanted to battle Lord Stitches. Cereza thought about writing again to Mouse and Ellie, but she's started running out of interesting things to talk about, to her at least. And the unsent letters were starting to pile up.

She can't keep doing this... She can't keep sitting here and do nothing! Cereza then looks at her Grey Kid outfit. Feeling the smooth glass-like surface of the mask, made her get a sense of nostalgia. Oh, how she longed to go venturing as the mysterious Grey Kid again.

A knock on the door made the princess hid the costume in her closet.

"C-come in!" Cereza tried to hide the panic in her voice. The door opens and She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Oaken walk into the room. "Oaken... Thank the gods its just you!"

"Yeah, I asked the guards if I could visit, and they told me you were in here." The brown-haired boy said. "What were you doing?"

"Oh, you know... Staring out into the sunset for what feels like years... You know, princess stuff!" Cereza grimaced.

"You're still thinking about them, aren't you?" Oaken frowned.

"It was that obvious?" Cereza asked. Oaken just nodded. "I just... I just feel so helpless. I want to help, but I don't know what to do..." Tears were threatening to fall, but she refused to acknowledge them. "I haven't felt this helpless since Stitches kidnapped me. Back when he was a puppet to that dice head..." She breathed out. A tear finally fell from her face. Despair started to sink in, but not for long. Her sad face shifted into one with determination. Like a fire started in her heart. Her mind was set! She knew what she wanted to do.

"I want to be the Grey Kid again." Cereza said with a firm tone.

Oaken just stared at the princess.

"I want to be the Grey Kid again." She repeated. "I know this is selfish, but I'm desperate to see them again. I never even knew Green Boots' name."

"So, when do you plan to sneak out?" Oaken asked.

"Tonight, you don't have to go if you don't want to." Cereza said. "But just know, you're not stopping me!"

"But what if I want to go with you?" Oaken asked.

As Cereza writes something, she pauses and turns to her friend. "Are-are you sure?" The dark haired boy nods. "Okay, while I'm getting ready, guard my door. Knock three times to warn me when someone approaches." Understanding his task, Oaken leaves the princess' room, allowing her to get changed.

Her gown neatly hung in her closet, and the grey hoodie took it's place. She always felt comfortable in it anyway, she's long since washed it. The red gloves and red boots fit nice and snug. Placing her crown on her desk, She hides her face with the horned mask. Finally her rapier, she always felt secure holding this weapon. Cereza checked the tip to make sure it was sharp. Princess Cereza was now the mysterious Grey Kid again.

After no warning knock, the disguised princess opened the door, and tapped Oaken on the shoulder.

"All set!" She whispered. Oaken followed Cereza inside. "Remember, not to call me by Princess Cereza when I'm like this. I'm just the Grey Kid, or just Grey."

"Got it!" Oaken nodded.

Grey tied his bed sheets together and threw it down his window for Oaken, since he doesn't have a hoodiechute like Grey. He looked at his unsent letters and decided to take the small pile with him, tucking them into his pouch. The Grey Kid sat on their window sill as Oaken got ready for his decent.

Just as Grey was about to take off, she heard her doorknob shaking, leaping off the window as quick as she could, as the door opened.

One of the knights looked around her room, looking for Cereza. Pulling the sheets off her bed, only to see a bunch of pillows that looked like a person was sleeping. He looked under her bed and desk, in her closet. "Princess? Princess!" The knight looked out the window as Grey hovered to the ground. "You! Grey child! Stop at once!"

You've got to be kidding me! Grey thought to himself. Thankfully, Oaken hid himself under the bushes until the knight looked away. Grey looked back, just in time to see the castle light up, and Oaken catching up to her.

"I bet you they think I kidnapped myself!" Grey laughed. Oaken smiled at that, and followed the grey kid into the woods behind the castle. The guards, although to far away to catch up, chased after them and split up.

[sippybug]

i don’t think i’ve posted underhero in awhile so!

[hunterontheedge]

There’s all too much I have to say so I’ll be typing it out up here. o7

I have a ferocious undying love for indie games and most of them changed me to some capacity. Other games that aren’t indie but changed me are Pokémon Mystery Dungeon and PokéPark. I am a huge sucker for lessons in friendship and found family so without further ado here’s my list.

Undertale, to kick it off strong- has been my oldest and dearest fandom. A game held together by spaghetti code and a bunch of fantastic elements - despite the bad rep, the game itself is beautiful. If you somehow haven’t played Undertale for yourself, you should do so. I think it would be good for this game to be experienced firsthand; make up your own voices for the characters in your head, pick your path, show love or gain LOVE.

Battleblock Theater, a game best experienced with your friends! This game was a wild ride and often thought to be a crazy fever dream- but it wasn’t! And when you’re playing with your friend, it adds an entire new layer to the experience. The levels even change to fit the co-op experience! Blow eachother up. Help eachother out. Get in a call or some kind of chat and shake eachother VIOLENTLY. If you end up liking Battleblock, I will also highly recommend the Behemoth’s other games: Alien Hominid HD, Castle Crashers, Pit People, and Alien Hominid Invasion. All of their games are such a fun fun FUN ride.

Wandersong… I met a LOT of my good friends here. Shoutout to those and also that of who I’m reblogging this from because Wandersong is by far one of the nicest fandom spaces I have ever been in. People are so so so kind here and everyone is so beautifully unique, just like in the game. They made an AWESOME zine recently- organized by my buddy raekeiko/artseniccatnip. It’s all so colorful and the game itself reflects those who played it very beautifully. There’s a chorus of voices- and a dance of hands for those without. Even if you are not the hero, you still leave an impact that’s so powerful, it keeps the world from ending for just a little while longer. Everhood may not be a fandom I interact with, but people seem interesting. The game itself is one hell of a ride, and takes you on a trip that really makes you question life as a whole. Whether immortality is really all it’s worth. Everyone is also transgender and nonbinary and one of the mages is canonically gay but in the end? It’s all left up for interpretation. There are no absolute truths. You make your own path.

Underhero!!! I couldn’t have gotten far without this silly masked child and their hilt. I’ve met beautiful people in this fandom space, and— really, most of them were already my friends from Wandersong. The idea that you can break whatever cycle you’re trapped in— no matter how deep in— it’s fascinating. You may feel like nothing in the moment but once again, you’re so much more than you think you’re worth.

I could prattle on but I’ve said enough. Hugs, kisses, thumbs up, nods of appreciation— all of these go out to my friends and fandom mutuals. Your souls are beautiful. You are beautiful. I love you, strangers.

cringe culture is dead but also, no, an adult shouldn't base their entire personality on liking a single media property. neither should a teenager. a self-respecting fan of any age really ought to have at least, like, three things they'll make an absolute fucking fool of themselves over at the drop of a pin. diversify.
