The creator of Knytt and Within a Deep Forest just released a new physics-based platform puzzler. Is it any good or is it just for chillbros? We also talk about what games you got over the holidays, and Anthony's personal life falls to pieces on camera. As. Per. Usual.



NightSky Review

Nifflas has a new game out, dudes! It's called NightSky and I am excited about it in the most chill, ambient way anyone can be excited. If the name isn't ringing any bells, his past work probably will - Knytt and Within a Deep Forest are his two most well-known, and we covered his most recent freebee, FiNCK, in episode 91. NightSky has all the hallmarks of a Nifflas game: laid-back pacing, ambient atmosphere, and a focus on exploration of an alien world.

  • The ByteJacker game would be much better if it wasn't flash.

    -Luis

  • @largames Flash was the easiest and most accessible platform to develop for - we want to release for other platforms in the future, but we have to see how the game does online first. Believe me, if I had my way, it'd be out for EVERYTHING. :)

  • Disregard women, acquire figurines.

  • @kekeke01 Someone put that on a Courage Wolf.

  • The game doesn't play for me? It just adds a bar at the top. It stacks the bars so I have like three on the screen. This happens on both IE and Chrome. Any help?

  • @ForgottenWombat I think you tried before the game went live. Try it again now, if you haven't already.

  • Knytt pronounced 'knight'? I thought it was 'knit'.

  • Super short bytejacker!! make some more. Considering this vid is so very cool I want to whisper some of you a underground secret on just how to earn a absolutely new apple ipad2! Check out my youtube channel and find out

  • MINECRAFT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I really didnt know what bytejacker would be like without john, but you're really doing a good job. keep it up! I'll try to get myself to make a video response sometime XD

  • I recently finished NightSky, and though normal mode might be different (I only went through on alternative mode) the puzzles and general innovation in that game were amazing. Every so often you'll get fun machines to use as the ball, well planned multiple part levels, and I found a great feel of unique gameplay that was challenging, constant change (very little repetition) and passion.

    I'm really glad I tried it, thought it should have rated better.

  • Kinda looks like LIMBO....except not horror.....where was I going with this sentance?

  • Have Dan from D3P0 (fellow Revision3 host) be guest star sometime! (Assuming you live in SF too

  • @largames People on Macs can easily play it too.
