4:25 is the sickest boss fight I've ever seen. It has everything: insane coordination, multitasking, split second decisions, perfection, and most importantly, a sick beat.
And when your heart is pounding like crazy, it only makes that much more intense Seriously, I think I've beaten the first Necrodancer fight a ton of times and yet everytime I get there, my heart is racing
Ok I know this post is two years old but I agree. It seems like such a good starter boss because it shaves off a beat every so often so you can think about how to get yourself out of any predicament you might be in.
I never thought to throw the dagger at the golden lute boss. That looks WAY easier than attacking its body to advance an odd number of turns, which is the strategy I used.
I know it's a beard and a collar, but I always like imagining that the NecroDancer is an elephant, and the beard is a trunk and the collar is elephant ears.
Oxman 7077 yeah like he said this game is awesome though, but it is also challenging... like, REALLY challenging... like for Aria, do NOT miss a beat, you get hit you'll die, and you only use a dagger, and you have two chances
Cool detail: all the characters in Deep Blue are based off of chess. They move according to their chest piece. This even includes the horses. I think the ponds might be the one exception to this though m
Woah. You've truly mastered this. You make look it so easy. I'm very much struggeling with Cadence in Zone 4 at the Necrodancer as I've already lost too much life during the 3 levels.

I reccomend going to the beastmaster and practicing against the enemies you have the hardest time with. I had trouble with the Blademasters and Lichs until their pattern sunk in. Now that the DLC has come out there's a whole nother zone to memorize. (except i'm a noturna main so zone five is suuuper easy to me)
In Pokemon black and white (or it's sequel, I'm not quite sure) there is a poison type gym leader (who is the leader of this koffing themed rock band) that as you beat her gym trainer's, the music cuts out instrument by instrument until you get to her, jamming away on her guitar at the end.
It's very difficult, but if you play it enough, you'll get used to it. I've clocked over 800 hours (recorded playtime)... and still haven't beaten the game with Aria. :V
I have this on steam but haven't touched it yet - a story that can be told for many games I bought on sale or whatever. I don't have quite as much free time anymore, either, so starting some really big game like Hollow Knight or Crypt of the Necrodancer or Bastion isn't something I can do right now.
I had to see what this game was, it came up in one of the completionist videos. Had no idea this existed the concept is cool but it’s making my brain go insane looking at all the stuff going on. Congrats to anyone who can do this 😂
Don't worry this isn't the worst the game has to offer. There is a mode where the tempo you have to move at is doubled, you cant pick up gold, you cant get hit, and if you miss a beat you die
Honestly it takes a lot of time to "git gud" but once you start to develop strats and pattern it gets easier and the game gets less frustrating. My prime exemple is the red dragon, i used to get POWNED by this fellow and rage quit until i started to notice it can only breath fire horizontaly, after that it got easier to beat and felt really satisfiing. Good luck!
Play with the bard and try to take as little damage as possible, eventually you'll know what needs to be done to defeat enemies and then you can take them on as Cadence
what was really weird about this game other than the whole music thing is that unlike a lot of rogue-like games your character is powerful as hell compared to everyone else on the board and often no one mistake would kill you
@Mallory Oakes oh yea ill admit you will die hella lot but what im stating is usually in most rogue-likes you are weak as sh*t but in crypt of the necrodancer you are the strongest one of the board usually only dying after several mistakes (which yea you'll make) or getting overwhelmed its a weird taste for the genre but I wouldn't call it a bad taste
Honestly just recently I've got to play the game, and I could not believe my eyes when this game asked me to play CHESS in the middle of a rhythm game.
It would be cool if in the fight with the instruments when you kill a set of something that instrument stopped. So in the end its just you and the slow beat of the bass guitar.
they do stop playing if you destroy them prior to the part where coral reef itself(the bass) comes for you, provided you use the original soundtrack (danny b's). however the instruments goes back to playing when you're at that part. a really neat detail tbh
Death metal is just the best hahaha Metal always sounds so rad in midi form, I was stoked when he showed up All the music is great but I was just hoping we'd get a fast shreddy metal song That melodeath harmony lead with the golden serpent is always sweet too It's like amon amarth or insomnium
It's a procedurally generated dungeon crawler. You use the arrow keys for every action, with single button presses moving you, and combinations of 2 using various tools and items (as seen when he throws the Dagger). You have to move and perform actions to the beat of the music, indicated my the Heartbeat at the bottom of the screen (and listening to the music, of course) Normally a regular run consists of a set of 3 floors followed by a boss fight, but this is Boss Rush, so no normal floors.
It can be really intense, but once you understand how each enemy moves and reacts to you it's more of a chess game, so to speak. Learning when to move, when it's safe to attack and such requires some practice. Especially with some characters like Aria (the last one shown) who will die if you miss a movement beat, get hit, or take any other weapon except the Dagger. Then there's Coda, who if I recall correctly the developers said at some point was impossible to beat the game with. I might be remembering that wrong or it might be hyperbole. He's extremely, extremely difficult though.
megaman161 I wouldn't call it hyperbole. The steam achievement for beating an all zones coda run has a completion percentage that shows that only about 5 people have earned it.
I suck at Crypt of the necrodancer, but honestly, it's got great music. Also it's good to play on switch. It was at a sale for 4€! So, I thought why not.
Its easy to forget about the dagger being throwable as Aria, seeing it is your only weapon. It can be a great option. For the Life boss, you can also synchronize to the boss with the bounce lads, or by attacking it's body, doing zero damage, but putting you in position to attack. (I used bounce pads, I'm not a legend)
I get the pun "necroDAncer" is a pun for necromancer, but I guess everyone else already knows that, (This game overall has a lot of instrument and song puns)
I was under the impression that you could move stand with 3 spaces between the two of you, both move towards each other at the same time, you then have a move and then attack before he gets his attack off... ahh well, maybe im just misremembering the boss.
Coral Riff only damages you if you let it step next to you. However if you wait until it moves and there's 1 tile distance between you, stepping next to it in the 1st beat and hitting it in the 2nd will damage it and you'll remain unharmed. It's a quick and easy method. Too bad the boss attack pattern is so badly telegraphed, if a shockwave was drawn around it, it would be more obvious how to fight him.
If you throw the dagger while playing Aria you’ll die from blood loss but ingame it says you died from cowardice (you can only attack with a dagger can never skip a beat and start with half a heart and a health potion)

This game feels like you’re playing chess in a middle of a rave.
That is a very accurate description. Especially that chess boss.
Finally someone who knows how to say what I exactly felt!
More like speed chess, but precisely
against the best chess player over and over

This is what a level 20 bard looks like

Hahaha :(
So true. Maybe having some Zelda style will inspire you to do better. ;)
Same
I can't even get past Zone 1's 4th level-
Played for a few hours, still getting my ass kicked by the zone 1 boss. At least I don't feel bad for losing with a groove this catchy!

Honestly the first time I beat it was complete luck. Beat it first try tho.
And when your heart is pounding like crazy, it only makes that much more intense

Decisions? Coordination? Bard and whip-then fucuf that shish.

Holy shit. I found my old comment.
@@georgeridden1705New account?
1:48 Can we appreciate how well the "Come to me!" from the boss fits ABSOLUTELY perfect with the music?!
I never thought to throw the dagger at the golden lute boss. That looks WAY easier than attacking its body to advance an odd number of turns, which is the strategy I used.
Another strategy is to use the bouncepads to re-synchronize to the head movement.
yeah, generally any hit to its head while it's confused from another attack will deal extra damage
8:32 I love how the two rhythms are perfectly synchronized and make an amazing beat
that's on purpose. the entire game is rhythm
i know, i'm saying that it sounds really cool when the pigs shooting and the music combine
7:11 it's not like you have a choice to do the boss with no damage anyways XD
Aria has a potion which can save her from 1 attack. So, you do have a choice. :)
Also glass armor, freeze charm, ring of shielding, and crown of teleportation.
So used to the golden lute quick kill that i never thought of doing a beat buffer by throwing the dagger instead. Seems terrifying.
Gamer Face it's anyway not anyways
Gamer Face :3

I know it's a beard and a collar, but I always like imagining that the NecroDancer is an elephant, and the beard is a trunk and the collar is elephant ears.

I now can't unsee it
5:00 When the Necrodancer says "Curse you!" and the music picks up speed you know we're no longer messing around.
holy cow this game looks like so much fun

Woah. You've truly mastered this. You make look it so easy.
I'm very much struggeling with Cadence in Zone 4 at the Necrodancer as I've already lost too much life during the 3 levels.
I reccomend going to the beastmaster and practicing against the enemies you have the hardest time with. I had trouble with the Blademasters and Lichs until their pattern sunk in. Now that the DLC has come out there's a whole nother zone to memorize. (except i'm a noturna main so zone five is suuuper easy to me)

We need more games that mix things up like this

Why do you throw the dagger so much vs coral riff?
That's the safe way to kill it. You'll get hit every time if you try to attack it with dagger at close range.
Plus, the only negative effect is it extends the fight. Even if you keep moving straight through water, you can still outrun him.
I was under the impression that you could move stand with 3 spaces between the two of you, both move towards each other at the same time, you then have a move and then attack before he gets his attack off... ahh well, maybe im just misremembering the boss.
You're not wrong. That IS easily doable without taking damage. This is just safer.
Coral Riff only damages you if you let it step next to you.
However if you wait until it moves and there's 1 tile distance between you, stepping next to it in the 1st beat and hitting it in the 2nd will damage it and you'll remain unharmed. It's a quick and easy method.
Too bad the boss attack pattern is so badly telegraphed, if a shockwave was drawn around it, it would be more obvious how to fight him.
this looks like a game i would struggle to play
it's like edgar wright made a video game
Dang, I never knew throwing the dagger did 3 damage not one... I really need to practice fighting with the dagger in order to play Aria >
Lute takes more damage when confused. You can see the throw damage in coral riff fight
If you throw the dagger while playing Aria you’ll die from blood loss but ingame it says you died from cowardice (you can only attack with a dagger can never skip a beat and start with half a heart and a health potion)
