Hopefully 2017 is the return of mascot platformers

Hopefully 2017 is the return of mascot platformers.

I agree, as stupid as your OP image may be.

>Yooka-Laylee
>Sonic Mania
>Mario 2006
>Freedom Planet 2

It's truly a comeback of the platforming genre.

why would it be? what is there besides kickstarted not-banjo?

>obsticle

>gender eyelashes

gross

see And Hat in Time and the Crash remasters too.

considering FOETOE REAL trash has run its course, the circle is shifting back to fantasy games with a flood of sci fi titles this year.

I dont mind either, not seen a good fantasy game in about 10 years

Isn't there a Sly movie in the works? I heard Klonoa is getting one.

I want to fuck that Yooka

If this goes well, we might get a new AE and Klonoa too
Sly movie was cancelled after R&C bombed

>Sly Cooper movie
Despite how radical that would be I can't see that happening

>Klonoa
Who the fuck would make a movie about this literally who mascot - fuck Klonoa

Mascot platformers are pretty lame, even Shantae is just okay

Fucking ASTEROIDS is getting a movie.

I hope it turns out well.

Isn't RAMPAGE also getting a movie?

There is so little porn of r63 Yooka

The developers even teased about that a week before revealing Yooka was male.

Do you think the devs pander to furfags?

Considering the choice of animals I'd say no, it's the behaviour of the characters maybe.

Not out loud. They probably do realize the furfag crowd has loads of autism bucks for anything that even resembles their fetish though.

Hell, I remember someone posting a tweet on Sup Forums from some dude with a dragon avatar saying he'll take back all his funding, if Yooka was a girl.

Wasn't Hat in the Time a really boring failure of a game full of stolen assets?

was that a thing?

On the plus side, she can just get all the male lizards to do all the platforming for her.

Yes

...

>Obsticle

Hopefully not.

Man Toybox was lots of fun, controls feel good. I hope the game has lots of skills like BK.
Only game I'm really looking forward to this year.

Would you fuck the bat?

the fuck is a mascot platformer lmao

Don't derail the thread further or we gonna get nuked, m8

I think you should be able to jump on those ramp/slide things but other than that it was good, did get stuck on 99 quills for a while though, just like old times

I only hyped for Wonder boy

There's gonna be a ridiculous fuckton of Yooka Laylee porn.

I mean, all the characters are pretty ugly or goofy looking. It's not like there was a bunch of Banjo porn.

There already is though.
>That time the Playtonic Twitter got mass bot spammed by some autist obsessed with Yooka's feet

There's also (hopefully) the Specter Knight DLC for Shovel Knight. Also Cuphead, though I don't know if that counts as a platformer.

Spectre and King are both set to come out this year.

More info on this? Sounds hilarious.

>Yooka-Laylee
>Specter of Torment and King Knight's campaign
>Sonic Mania
>Moster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom
>Iconoclasts

2017 is gonna be great

...

These DLCs are shit and nobody really cares. They should be making Shovel Knight 2 by now.

...

>They should be making Shovel Knight 2 by now.

They are working on whatever their next big project is gonna be though (which probably won't be Shovel Knight 2). They don't have their entire studio working on the boss knight campaigns

Also you have shit taste Plague Knight's campaign was excellent

Bless you jaeh.

>They are working on whatever their next big project is gonna be though (which probably won't be Shovel Knight 2). They don't have their entire studio working on the boss knight campaigns

You talk like they have a huge studio. They are an indie company.

>Also you have shit taste Plague Knight's campaign was excellent

I thought it had bad controls and dropped. Took all the charm of Shovel Knight out.

>Who the fuck would make a movie about this literally who mascot
Hitoshi Ariga, motherfucker.

>i couldn't figure out how to properly move with plague knight
>this is the game's fault

ah, i see, you're one of those people

>the word indie implies a maximum size
wew lad

Nobody has to struggle with the controls of a platforming. This kind of game should be about neat level design and boss fight, not that.

Yes, it's entirely on you. The controls were wonderful.

Crash fucking Bandicoot.

I will get really pissed if they don't follow up the remake with a new series of dank platformers.

that fur is trippin me the fuck out man

>You talk like they have a huge studio. They are an indie company.

They have around 11 employees and only 5 or so of them have been working on the boss knight campaigns

I agree it's overkill, but I hate the faggots who say "orange skin" is a real option.

I don't think so. Saw a lot of people complaining on steam forum too. Don't recall any platformer with controls as bad.

Also, numbers don't lie, these DLCs are disaster. See:

>Freedom Planet 2 just revealed ice pun panda is a playable character
she's so fucking edgy, i love it

that is just not a design that translates well to modern graphics

honestly, cell shaded would've looked better

>Do we think Rareware panders to furfags?
Nah

I think it could work with a normal map that's less clay-like than this one, and maybe some fur sticking out on sharp corners like the ears and top of his head.

I just want my bear back

I'm thinking the way they did Fox in Brawl would have worked.

The new villain looks edgy too

I wanna fuck it

>Don't recall any platformer with controls as bad.

Please explain what's so bad about the controls. You have two jumps, a boost jump and bomb throws to help with air control. You can also save your regular second jump for additional air control after a boost jump

>Also, numbers don't lie, these DLCs are disaster.
>Ignoring the fact that most people would need to beat the game as Shovel Knight (those that would just skip with the code are a minority) and only 28.8% of owners have beaten Shovel Knight proper

Great job

There's a sly cooper movie trailer

Achievement percentages are a bullshit way of gauging popularity. Less than half of the owners of Terraria have gotten the cut down a tree achievement yet it's still as popular as it is.

Krystal was actually invented by the DKR team, who made Dinosaur Planet. I don't think there's too much overlap between the DKR team and Playtonic.

IWTFT

Berri, Honey B, and Kandy Kong

>only 28.8% of owners have beaten Shovel Knight proper

Maybe the game is too hard for them?

That's just a lie. Achievements weren't introduced in Terraria until last year. The game is very old now. Shovel Knight was released with the achievements.

Voodoo Vince is also coming back.
And Knack 2

>Mario 2006
?

Maybe. It's hard to imagine with higher resolution textures while at the same time having no depth.

I just don't get why fur shading always has to be even across the entire character model. Even Ratchet has that. Why can't there be short and long fur depending on where on the body it is?

The Conker devs aren't at Playtonic either
And nobody likes candy kong

Odyssey

They call it Mario 06 cause real life world and Sonic 06 correlation. You stupid fucking sack of fucking shit.

Super Mario Odyssey. People memeing about how it reminds them of Sonic 06

>too hard
user, did you forget not everyone buys on Steam?

Humba Wumba, Sexy Grunty

Oh. Then call it Mario Adventure, you piece of memeing shit.

that looks miles better than the Crash one, probably because it looks more than an animal instead of a fucking mutant

>furry

>And nobody likes candy kong
yet her design still panders to furfags

Furshit, user
They don count

shit yeah, probably should have read the line of replies

I'm not the one who called it Mario 2006 you fucking shit eating faggot. Fight me irl.

Then why are you getting so fucking angry, you stupid teen fuck? I won't cause I don't wanna break your fucking back.

Nice empty threats you little cock sucking faggot. You're lucky you won't come to me cause once I beat you down I'll lock you in my basement, feed you HRT, and make you my fuccboi.

Krystal was designed by Gregg Mayles
He did character design on DKC 1-3, Conker, Banjo and Tooie, Starfox Adventures, and Conker

Gregg is a game designer, not an artist and he didn't work on DKC3, Conker or Starfox

True, and it doesn't fuck with the character's general shape. New Crash did end up pretty shapeless with the fur like that.

Crash literally is a fucking mutant

Steam is drenching out in Mascot platformers.

Like fucking seriously.

Platformers is the one thing killing steam. Everybody wants to relive metroidvania nostalgia. Its BS.

Just 'cos your dumb ass missed out on Klonoa doesn't make him 'literally who'.

Go fuck yourself.

What are you talking about? There's fuckall mascot platformers worth a shit as far as I've seen on Steam now.

Me too user.

>there are people on this planet who unironically fap to jaeh's stuff

>drawing of banjo
>it's just a generic bara bear cosplaying as banjo
when will @god kill all the furries
