Linus Tech tips coverage of PS 2013 is brought to you by Western Digital Intel

00:00:04.600 --> 00:00:10.800
and steel series all right guys we're here at the Indie Mega Booth checking

00:00:08.280 --> 00:00:14.280
out Crypt of the necro dancer which the name sounds crazy and the game is crazy

00:00:13.000 --> 00:00:18.920
can you tell me more about the main premise of this game yeah sure um it's a

00:00:16.600 --> 00:00:23.039
Rog likee rhythm game so it combines dungeon crawling with moving to the beat

00:00:21.320 --> 00:00:27.119
and attacking to the beat um so you crawl around a dungeon and you attack

00:00:24.599 --> 00:00:32.119
dragons and and a lot of Undead uh monsters cuz of necro dancer um so yeah

00:00:29.599 --> 00:00:35.120
that's a premise of it yeah so basically the whole the moving to the beat thing

00:00:33.680 --> 00:00:38.399
there's a song playing in the background you can load your own MP3s correct so

00:00:37.000 --> 00:00:43.079
you can load Your Own MP3 so if there's a song you like a certain dance song you like you can load that up and then at

00:00:41.600 --> 00:00:46.920
the bottom of the screen you see bars coming into a heart and you have to move

00:00:45.239 --> 00:00:50.520
on the rhythm of the song so you can load in whatever you want and dance to

00:00:48.520 --> 00:00:54.760
that tell me more about the main mechanics I know there's a shovel and a

00:00:52.320 --> 00:00:57.920
weapon how does that play into the game um so you move around with only the

00:00:56.399 --> 00:01:02.120
arrow keys or if you're playing with a DDR pad with your feet and and uh you

00:01:00.440 --> 00:01:05.880
move around with just those and if there is an enemy like in the attack range of

00:01:04.119 --> 00:01:09.720
your weapon then you'll attack instead or if you run into a wall you'll dig it

00:01:07.680 --> 00:01:14.240
out instead so it's all like context based uh mechanics cool there's also

00:01:12.920 --> 00:01:17.759
hidden shops in the game and stuff that you can find and to purchase things you

00:01:16.119 --> 00:01:22.840
have to dance on top of them which is actually pretty awesome what's your

00:01:19.560 --> 00:01:24.320
favorite part of this game oh manal

00:01:22.840 --> 00:01:28.560
question I know right yeah well it's a Rog leg so it is randomly generated

00:01:26.600 --> 00:01:31.960
dungeons uh and so every time you play it it's different when you die started

00:01:30.320 --> 00:01:35.280
all the way over and it's just like a has a lot of replayability it's really

00:01:33.360 --> 00:01:38.880
refreshing as a developer it's super fun for me cuz I don't get bored of it so

00:01:37.200 --> 00:01:41.360
yeah yeah not getting bored of a game as a developer is kind of a big deal so I

00:01:40.439 --> 00:01:46.040
don't blame you for that being a favorite part of the game at all um this

00:01:43.759 --> 00:01:51.560
is a really interesting game you guys won an award I've heard uh editor's

00:01:48.960 --> 00:01:56.560
