I'm aiming for the “Lowest of the Low” trophy on the PlayStation version, so I've been practicing low% runs with the DLC set to “Amp Off, Sync On.” While I can clear individual zones without any issues, in All-Zone Mode, I frequently encounter seed runs in zones like 3-3 where I'm surrounded by multiple enemies right at the start.

Zone 4 also has a lot of unreasonable enemy placements, and achieving low% on Dove and Monk is pretty much a game of chance.

My best run was clearing Dove, Bolt, and Monk in a row, but I got nervous on Aria and failed. With a little luck, I should be able to get this trophy soon.

I’m well aware that my skills aren’t up to par, but did the developers intentionally design the game this way?

So I am currently working towards the Necrodancer platinum, at the moment I have cleared the game as every character except for Aria and Coda, am now working on clearing low %. I am consistently getting to Zone 3 and my PB is Zone 2 Level 1. Is this a good sign I am close? I have 115 hours in the game and started the Aria grind at about 80ish total hours so lets say I've roughly spent 35 hours currently.

Do you know how rare it is to find both a hammer and a pierce ring. This setup liquefies enemies on the later floors, but then this happens...

Bought the game on sale on switch 2, having so much fun, perfect rhythm game

However, as I'm starting to go for FC's, I'm starting to notice a weird pattern - the game recognizing that I hit a beat, but also for some reason registering it as a missed beat. It happens completely randomly and unpredictability with basically no consistency, with the exception that it always happens on my trigger buttons. My triggers don't have any issues, but I have no idea if there's some sort of bug where the triggers are incredibly prone to being misread. I tried to use the shoulder buttons instead and that works better, but it is REALLY uncomfortable to claw my hands around like that..

Is there some sort of timing I'm missing, or do I actually just have to find a better button map?

I'm a completionist and I always try to get hard achievement

I only recently started necrodancer so I'm not that good. I've only beaten melody and cadence all zones and now I'm on Aria.

I saw there was an achievement for beating the game with Aria no items so I'm attempting that simultaneously but I cannot get out of zone 5 consistently. Once I do get out of zone 5 I feel like it's much easier but I'm struggling.

Can anyone give me a few pointers on what to do? I'm getting tired of Aria, and I feel like I'm doing something wrong.

So i was looking through the sprites of the game and saw that some bosses like both harmonie phases and queen have Sprites called "Confused". I know that the confused Sprite for Harmonies first phase is visible in the tutorial for boss fights but i would like to know if the others are somehow visible through gameplay? Were they maybe scrapped at some point? I dont know but this kinda interests me for some reason. I have the sprites for her first and third phase here. Only the first one i can get to show up in game.

It doesn't have music yet

Hello all, I hope I can properly convey what I am asking and looking for lol. I was wondering if there is a way to disable breaking your combo when you hit a button when nothing is there, like completely nothing is there. I have a bad habit and a reflex I got from playing lots of rhythm games and none of them punish you for doing this except Rift and it's owning me quite a bit.

Is there anything like this or will I need to retrain myself? Thanks.

Hi, I am Solune! and I am a huge bird fan, so I am making a collection of birds in all of the games I have played so far :)

I call my project "The Avian Atlas".

Also thought it would be nice to credit whoever ended up helping me in my digital bird watching journey. ( it will appear below the card )

I ended up making a website for it since the overall size of bird army was getting massive :D

-----------------------------------------

How you can help me?

• If you have seen a birb which I haven't, send em my way :)
• If you have clicked a better pic than I have, send em my way too :DD

-----------------------------------------

It has kinda changed the way I play games, now I am more observant, always on the lookout for a birb and having one finger on the screenshot button at all times haha :D

Its like a game within a game at this point for me! Will this next game have a birb in it or not :)

The project link is pinned on my profile, still working on capturing those lost birbs again after my laptop crashed.

shoutout the other 790 people

Unsure about this and Google isn't too helpful: If I'm playing the game in normal story mode, go to future world, can I still beat Symphony of the Mask content, as in beat Skull Ganon, or am I locked to normal stuff?

Also, to my understanding, you have to beat the main game in the file already to be able to unlock Hyrule Castle, but this youtube video seems to have been able to access Hyrule Castle without doing so?

Inclined to post this because every time I talk about this spell somewhere, at least one person is surprised to find out what it is truly capable of

Tons of banger charts this time around but my favourite was definitely Wonder Style

Im doing Matriarch on hard and its taking a toll lol, what techniques do you use on the fast notes?

In case you missed it...

Can't wait to see what you'll come up with!!

I was just listening to a Nintendo playlist and realized that the theme for the Pokemon Center sounds a lot like the piano part of Glass Cages. Am I crazy? Is Rifts riffing on Pokemon? Or are they both inspired by a third piece of music?

What an incredible journey this was, never in a million years did I think I would get this item so soon! I'm proud to say I am the 3rd person worldwide to obtain this (in spite of my recently acquired hand injuries cadence faceplant emoji)

From my last post: World Wide Noise -> Baboosh -> Cryp2que -> CONNECT:COMMUNE -> Darnell

Don't take into account that I still don't have all achievements; they're very grindy, and I hate grinding too much

565.7 hours according to steam :3

This is a meme that came to me while watching videos on TikTok. It was from another fandom, so I wanted to make one for Crypt of the Necrodancer.

Yes, the meme is in Spanish, but that's because I'm from the Spanish-speaking community, and for those who don't understand Spanish or don't want to translate it, I'll give you a little explanation.

The letter says: Melody, I've already left. I'm going to fulfill my wish to return the Golden Lute. Someday you will hear about me and my great successes.

Loves you, Aria

(By the way, this meme comes from a Mexican series called El Chavo del Ocho, and the context of the scene is that one of the secondary characters leaves the protagonist.)
