2. Will Alf's escape be made available on the other platforms that NnT will be released on?

Yes.

So I caved and bought a PS4 :D Abe's Oddysee was my first game on PSOne in '97, and my first game on PS4 17 years later is... Abe's Oddysee! That's some real progress there :p

Seriously, the game was amazing, an incredibly authentic recreation of the original. Very much looking forward to Alf's Escape, the trailer looks awesome!

It's a menu thing.

I think BM's question was whether it was only available through the menu, or if it was also accessible through the doorway, as was their original plan. I had wondered the same thing.

Do you mean the doorway in the secret area of the Zulag 4 hub? Personally I think that putting it there would be ridiculous, I actually had to end up looking on this forum to find that secret area!

Sounds like the perfect place to me

Holy Sock 08-14-2014 02:24 AM

If Alf's Escape is as difficult as they've said then it's probably best to leave it out of the main game.

Xavier played through Alf's Escape today. :)

Slog Bait 08-14-2014 03:18 AM

PFFF he totally sent you to brag for him, didn't he

Arrrrrgh! I haven't even played the rest of the game, yet! Hope he enjoyed it!

On a side note I now want to see a livestream of Xavier and OANST playing co-op.

JennyGenesis 08-14-2014 04:19 AM

I don't...

Varrok 08-14-2014 04:31 AM

Me neither

Slog Bait 08-14-2014 04:36 AM

Do Xavier and OANST ever even talk to each other

Holy Sock 08-14-2014 04:39 AM

You all suck. Especially Varrok.

JennyGenesis 08-14-2014 04:46 AM

I wouldn't mind seeing a live stream of Xavier.

Phylum 08-14-2014 04:50 AM

Aren't you straight now?

JennyGenesis 08-14-2014 04:56 AM

I didn't mean like that!

Holy Sock 08-14-2014 05:03 AM

So did Xavier play this at Gamescon? EDIT: Reread previous posts. Yes is the answer.

STM 08-14-2014 05:21 AM

I just wanna see OANST playing NnT full stop.

And I loved it :)

Here is what you should know:
- The new content is about the size of Zulag 4.
- You explore a brand new place in RF.
- It’s realy hard, I finished the original game on hard without issues and I struggled in some places of Alf's Escape on normal.
- A lot of the puzzles require very good timing.
- You will love the new saws. :D
- You will meet someone new we only heard about but never saw.
- Alex had a lot of fun watching me fail over and over.

If you have questions about it shoot ;)

Holy Sock 08-14-2014 05:33 AM

I initially thought we might be seeing the Guardian Angel pop up in Alf's Escape but then I remembered Wil's quote in that the model was too complicated for a simple cameo... and we *did* see it in the Guardian Angel trailer so I guess that rules that out.....

Hmmm, Lady Margaret perhaps? Crig the Slig? I dunno....

Is that it?

Fuck :(

Crashpunk 08-14-2014 06:25 AM

If it's just as difficult as Xavier says it is. The length doesn't bother me. You don't want it out staying it's welcome.

I'm super excited for this. But I've got a feeling it's going to make me go fucking insane...

I'd say between 60 and 90 minutes. And that's on Normal difficulty. :)

CrowbarSka 08-14-2014 06:29 AM

I just did a quick comparison out of curiosity. Laying all the area of Zulag 4 and Alf's Escape end to end, the latter is about double the size. Probably more, because it's far more densely-packed.

Xavier 08-14-2014 06:33 AM

Wow realy? Well it felt shorter, but that's probably because time flies when you are having fun :)

Note I wonder how those levels look like on your screen when you are laying them out like that.

I think the gameplay in Alf is the best in New n Tasty.

It's bigger than Z4. I assume Xavier means the middle hub section.

Remember I'd already run through the starting sections and you were asking me what to do throughout! :p

STM 08-14-2014 06:54 AM

This is painful. :(

True that sped things up a lot, I forgot about that. :p

And I agree it has some of the best gameplay of the whole game.
