Obsessed with TUNIC
5 months ago
So a little over a week ago I finally got around to downloading and laying TUNIC (I've seen bits and pieces of other playthroughs already and it was on my "I might play that some day" list for a while), and now even days after beating it I can't stop thinking about it. But it's hard to talk about the game without spoiling it because...well to try and be as spoiler-free as possible...EVERYTHING in the game is part of the lore. Yes the fictional language most of us have seen and heard about, but also the in-game manual, the buttons on the controller, the shape of the over-world maps, even the freaking status bars and pause screen. Every...single...frame...on...screen...has secrets within secrets within secrets and three years out players are still finding more. Also we've all seen the player character (dubbed "Ruin Seeker" and they're freaking ADORABLE I want a plush of them. :3
However I have no plans to do a Let's Play of the game anytime soon (I prefer to do Let's Plays of older games from when I was a teen), and plus I still have a few ongoing Let's Plays I want to finish before I start any new ones. I already have a few games slated to pick up for Let's Plays after my current ones are wrapped up.
I will ask that people try to refrain from talking about spoilers in the comments here in case people who haven't played or beaten it yet see them, but you can note me later if you have lore theories you want to chew on. REALLY hope the game gets a sequel soon.
To finish off, here are some (hopefully) spoiler-free tips for new players who may find themselves getting stuck or struggling with the mechanics of the game and they don't want to just look it up (like I admittedly did.).
- Check your corners, rookie.
- Stop, drop and roll!~
- If something looks important, it probably is.
- When in doubt, consult the manual.
- The key to the sacred geometry lies under your left thumb.

Not sure if you know, but there is an official plush. https://www.fangamer.com/collection.....unic-fox-plush

...WANT. I wonder if it comes in customizable tunic colours. I found the wardrobe in the game and gave my Ruin Seeker a blue tunic and pink hair tuft.

Doesn't look like it from what I can see, but one comment on it does say that the tunic is removable, so in theory you could put anything on it that fits.
