Topic: The Unofficial BIT.TRIP FATE Thread

How dare he relate to us the particulars of the game as they were featured in the build he was given. For shame.

Just noticed on the Bit.Trip Twitter page a couple days ago this was posted:

Name hint? And how did no one else spot this when everyone went crazy over Bit.Trip F_ _ _ (or am I just crazy and someone already mentioned it here...........)

Nope, no one has mentioned it here, but on the official Facebook page someone brought it up a few hours ago.
Speaking of which, I almost got the title out of him, but CV was too smart for me:
Me: @BitTrip You guys already started BIT.TRIP...what was it called again?
CV: @Odentnin BIT.TRIP NICETRY

BIT.TRIP FANART:

"_ is _"? Maybe it's a Streets of Rage clone called Bit.Trip Fist!

Bit Trip Fish. It's like the fishing mini-game in Link's Awakening but with flashing lights.

And funky music.

Oh my goodness this will be out on Monday. But why oh why must Nintendo's updates always be when I have school? Not to mention, I usually have a lot of homework on Mondays. I'll do what I can to make sure I have as little homework as possible on Monday night, but it will not be easy. D:

I'm in the same boat, @SuperMarioFan. I'm debating whether to miss school on Monday so I can download FATE within the first ten minutes of it being out and have a chance to play it for five minutes.

YAY It's out monday And I don't have Cross Country anymore so I can pick it up right after school

I certainly would never be allowed to miss school over a video game but if I can get everything done this weekend I can make it so that I'll only have (at most) 2 subjects worth of homework on Monday night, which would be very nice.

Man I want this game! D:

Les than 3 hours! (Drools all over keyboard)

Les than 2 and a half hours! (Drools all over world, initiating the second Great Flood, only for a beautiful RUNNER-rainbow to appear afterward)

Get ready guys. Only five minutes left!

Downloading...

SIX LEVELS!

But the soundtrack has only 8 tracks and 3 of them are shorter than 1 minute, so how is that possible?

Two are title screen/credits music, and I don't know what one of them is. Maybe tracks are re-used.

whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat

omg i'm going to explode sitting here at work for the next seven and a half hours D: D: D:

FATE isn't hard at all...

So I'm trying to understand this game. Does it matter how many times you hit the enemies, or is it just a matter of hitting them once on the beat of the music? If you only need to hit them once, what's the point of the weapon upgrades? The girl has a nice spray pattern, but the other three don't seem any better than the default weapon.

So far I'm not liking this game as much as the other Bit.Trips, and I'm already tired of constantly holding down the fire button and pointing the Wiimote. Maybe I should see if the Classic Controller feels any better.
