It's been a few hours since I 1CC'd S-HARD in Panel De Pon and my hands still feel like what Sakura Kasugano's hands felt like when she threw her first hadoken.
Hello everyone. I practiced very hard and was a brave fairy, and somehow, I got my second 1CC of S-HARD in Panel De Pon.
Yet, even though I worked hard… just like my first 1CC, I only won in the very end because of RNG. It's a bittersweet feeling… ._. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qwz1Uair_5g
I love this videogame. I really do. It's an incredibly elegant immersive narrative about growing up, in the sense that trying to play this freaking difficulty ages you 10 years each time.
Making the Bronze Structure in Land Maker is like making the 5 in Panel De Pon. Once you know how to make the 5 and internalise the positions which could produce the 5, you accept that you always have to make it where possible, and every missed 5 sticks out at you from then on.
What versus puzzle game CPU matches feel like
• Puyo Puyo: catapult battle with only timber and ropes provided
• Pochi & Nyaa: pistol duel with Metroid charge beams
• Panel De Pon: boxing match while wearing plate mail
• StarSweep: knife fight atop a mountain of daggers
