I don't think there's a single one way that any game is "meant" to be played/enjoyed. Each person enjoys games differently. I admit that it is really rewarding to find things on your own. I just have a low tolerance level to frustration while I'm playing so I'd rather use a guide to get through, say, Hell Maze than give up after 10 tries. Just to clarify, I'm not the OP and I found the path to the ladder on my own as well. I do best in small maze-rooms, but have trouble with the big looping maps so I like to use a guide now and then.

Personally, I like using maps or guides that won't spoil what's coming up. I remember one map posted a while back that was just squares with general descriptions like "hell maze" and "black and white area" with vague descriptions on how to reach one area from another. I'll usually use those types, and I won't really turn to them until about 6 failed attempts to find something.

with the open areas with no borders i usually take a diagonal path of about 30 degrees, which given time will be able to traverse most rectangles. so mostly i do not need maps. the wandering around is the fun part anyway

hell.... well hell is another story. so is that static room

>>3702
I had to make a map of that ladder in case i had to go again. That somewhat gave a little more to the achievement.

Not posting it though lol, you're on your own OP.

The path changes. Sometimes youll be able to go through, and sometimes youll only reach dead ends.
If your unlucky like me, it will open up when you have found every effect but Demon. If not, just check back until you can go through.

Sadly, that's one of the side effects of a game like this becoming very popular.

On the plus side, EVENTUALLY there will probably be a new version, so there will be more stuff to explore.

I feel it's quite the opposite. You can see everything in the game, but what does it all mean now?

You can say it all means nothing, but that's no fun.

I think I had more fun making up theories than actually playing the game. Of course I try not to make completely crap theories, taking into account the relationship between items, areas, creatures, music, sound and symbols and try not to make presumptuous statements along the way.

That's just me, though.

>>3733
This is very true. The fact that almost if not everything has been discovered is great, in my opinion. Because the game is so interpretational in nature, it's different to virtually everyone.

I'd suggest against writing it off because there's nothing new to discover. Theories are half the fun of this game.

You need a 256 color BMP and RPG Maker
just import the file through RPGMaker and select the transparent color when it does

>>3685
I found that out a while ago. :B Now for programming stuff.

Edit: The color keeps going from gray to a really desaturated blue when I save as a 256 color .bmp. whaaaaat

That image format does strange things to colors.
It seems like you can choose the colors that show up somehow, since pasting an image into a 256-color BMP will cause it to have the same colors as said BMP...

for extra fun, try pasting pictures into the background of the Uboa area.

I usually save it as a normal BMP and then find something to convert it to 256. It doesn't mess the colors so much. I'm using Aha View now, but it's a trial so yeah

It's a random chance, so keep trying. It's almost as annoying as getting Uboa.
Wake up and return if you're not getting it
I always get it faster on the bed at the candle world but that's just me

>>3657
This. It randomly chooses a bed each time you go to sleep.
I like trying to use the one in the dream world apartment. If it doesn't work up, wake up, go back to sleep, and try again.

I've heard that the bed in the Snow World has a higher chance of being picked. Not certain if it's true, but that bed sent me to Masada both times I used it.

It's a very interesting theory, I would love to see if it would sum up to anything.

I think all beds in the area come up with this:

10101001 1 11
10101 1010101
11 1 11 100110011

1 1101010011
11101 0 00 101
101101 101011

or, if you invert the bed's meanings,

01010110 0 00
01010 0101010
00 0 00 011001100

You know... If you took this picture and used the curve of negative black space as the "hood" and drew a red Uboa face over Giygas's...
OH MY GOD! It's like the ultimate abomination!

Aw, maaan. Image posting trouble...
Here, then. I'll do it the old-fashioned way!

That is a hilarious wall to finish with.
Thank you, Anonymous, for posting some examples in my stead.>>3564

Alright, the Warp Maze song, is actually the BGM 14 song slowed down, I'll see If I can alter it to that speed, save it and send it.

One moment.

Wow that was quick. Thank you very much.

Holy shit, I just realized it's the Aztec Rave monkey song.

Not strange at all, in my opinion. I write novels as a hobby, I usually have full-length conversations with some of my characters. Not necessarily as a conscious, but moreso as people to argue with when desperately bored.

Yes, yes.

Ever since childhood I always had these "companions" that gave me advice and encouragement in everything. They've always been there, for the longest time being very active and at some occurrences even "taking over" completely when I'm in a very difficult situation (like pilot change or something ololol)
It's almost as if they are different personalities, but they aren't. Can't explain too well.
Basically, they are their own persons, have their own identity, their own pasts, anything a normal human being would have and feel. They all react differently to a certain situation, so it's good practice for me to analyze what the next best step would be. Almost like chess, haha.

One of those "companions" is Snow, name I have adapted as my own nickname, after her telling me that I would feel "more stronger and confident" when people start calling me that. True to her word, I started feeling like my own person, having my own identity... again, hard to explain.~

Hmh~ as for YN-related characers, it's Madotsuki, but she doesn't talk much. Whenever I go biking she comes with me and we end up in the most impossible places.
