you can get them (i shot snatcher with a glock)

thanks i appreciate it

You know, I don't know! I haven't really paid much attention to achievements. I don't *think* hat prevents achievements if you have mods installed, especially since one of the summer events involved using community mods, including this one.
I suppose I could try and get an achievement I don't have while using the guns. I'll get back to you whenever I find the time to do that, I guess!

can i get achievements with this on?

the brewing hat is now completely redundant and the floor is a suggestion, 10/10 mod

Super duper well made, holy

I'd put that "when" more at an "if" currently, but we'll see.

This mod is amazing with what it pulls off currently, and I look forward to that update when it comes, but it doesn't need to happen anytime soon, take your time.

Duly noted! I can't guarantee anything, especially since the configuration UI for mods is limited and that would likely require a completely custom HUD menu for it, but I'll note it down in case I get a major burst of motivation to work on this again. Life's been "on hold" for me for a long time and it's been affecting my mood - and I have another programming project that would help my work portfolio ongoing as well.
But! Again, duly noted, and I'll put it on the list for a hypothetical future update.

After playing around with the "Customizable Hat Wheel" mod, the ability to personalize what shows up in the wheel in detail would be a nice feature.

(especially since some outfit mods add weapons that can clog up the wheel, preventing the weapons I actually want to use from being selectable)

Now I can play in Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal while I play A Hat in Time! >w<

i think this is, without exaggeration, one of the most well-executed mods i think i've ever seen made for any game ever. as someone who played a lot of cave story as a kid, seeing the weapons, mechanics, and even the little things like the bouncing of the experience pickups and the missile explosions so accurately recreated gave me a bigger smile than i think i've had in quite some time. i don't even want to give this a numbered rating because it's just that damn good.

all that being said, if ever there was anything that could be added, i would love to see the Snake and the Spur, and perhaps some way to lock the weapons at a certain level since i personally prefer the missile launcher at level 2 (inb4 you control the experience you pick up) and there's an issue when switching player characters where all the weapon levels get reset to 1.

man 10/10

Dancing with a Cave Story weapon equipped causes the dance animation to start glitching out after a few seconds.

This is great, found by accident but so much effort was put into it.

Now all we need is somebody who is good with the level editor to make some levels intended to be used alongside this mod, or even some cave story sets, that would be cool and more fun to play with the mod since it would fit way better than with standard enemies meant for normal gameplay.

i like this because

1:it has the "hat" tag
2:it's actually a new hat while having the hat tag

I owe you at least five favors for this mod, my God this is great. Cave Story is my favorite game of all time and seeing it implemented in a collectathon is just... magical.

Yeah this mod has no right being as good and polished as it is. But of course, taking care of oneself is the top priority, so take all the time you need to yourself.

That said I must say I've always been a fan of your mods. All of them are not only really polished, but usually they introduce new mechanics that weren't possible before in the game, which amazed me each time. Keep it up!

I still want that hat and "Knife" as a flair tho >:3

Sure, there won't be any downside with some unnecessary rush. Take all the time necessary to meditate and solve some things that life deals with you, without pressure!

Thanks for the kind words! If you have any specific requests you're always free to ask, though I can't guarantee they'll be worked on, especially with my current life state. For example, I have some small stuff in the pipe that really should have gone out weeks ago but boy I just can't find the drive to work on it right now. But again, don't let that stop you from pointing out things to improve.

As a Cave Story player, Quote's weapons, references, and the hat... Man! make this one of my favorite mods for this game. *It has flaws of course, but they are not serious enough to stain the gaming experience. An update wouldn't go amiss*

10/10 +Reward

Honestly I'd like to do it myself but i dont know any modding. Everything I find out there to learn is so sparse too, it sucks :(

I think you guys are asking way too much for a group of 3 modders doing this on their spare time.

LovePoison has a point, a very interesting one.

Also I dont care how long it would take, take your sweet time with it if you decide to implement it, it can literally be the source of a lot of new gamemodes

Please, PLEASE... make the guns have interaction with players too... it would literally change everything, you could even make custom multiplayer maps for a new shooter gamemode.

Only thing im gonna ask

The only problem I have encountered regarding that has been the fact that is pretty much impossible to fly with the Machine Gun if there are enemies around. Even if they are far away, the auto lock-on will still prioritize trying to shoot the enemy instrad of letting you fly.

But aside from that, I really loved the auto lock-on! Because I mainly use a controller, and I'm VERY tired of guns in the workshop being unusable with a controller since they all require mouse movement.

If I may ask, what problem are you encountering that would lead you to make that request?

This is an amazing mod, the exp crystals dropping whenever an enemy is defeated is an amazing touch.
However, may I request the ability to disable the auto-aim through the config menu if possible?

Thank youuuu!! And I mean, maybe an option for it or multiple flairs with each variant might work? xP

PS: King is hella OP!... As he should! hehe >:3

@Freya Thanks for checking out our mod! I wouldn't say Quote's hat being a sprint hat flair is totally out of the realm of possibility nor the Blade being an umbrella re-skin, though I'm not sure how I would go about allowing players to choose what kind of plate design they would like to have on... I'll have to think about it; thanks for the suggestion!

I freaking loved each of the weapons and how different they all played! But I was wondering, and I know this may be a bit too much to ask, but is there a possibility of later in the future making a separate mod pack of this to make Quote's Hat just a flair for the Sprint Hat and also make the Blade/Knife as a reskin for the unbrella pleaseee?

I know this complete defeats the purpose of this mod, but I kinda want to use this hat even when under a 'vanilla' playthrough since it looks so freaking goooooooooood!!

I totally forgot about the Snake until you said that LOL. And no worries, if you guys ever get to it, it would be AWESOME to have. :)
Maybe the in-game Projectile Badge would be a good template for it, or at least, a start to an idea.
Thanks again for the great mod ^^

Yeah. We understand how iconic the Spur is, but it just came down to we'd been making this mod for over a year, and we didn't have many decent ideas for it (visually or mechanically), and we just needed to get the mod out there. But do let us know if it's something the people want.
The Snake's not there for the reasons stated above, and also the nature of its wall-piercing gimmick is innately troublesome to translate to 3d (and to translate to the aiming system we have in place). Also none of us really used it. That one's not likely to see an addition, unless there's some kind of epiphany on how it could be made to work really well.

Very well done, hope one day you can add the Spur though. Was hoping to find it in here. Good none the less though!

bruh

PSA for the folks looking to collect 5k EXP for one of the 2023 summer objectives: If you don't mind a little bit of holiday whiplash, definitely try Dan's "Mafia Boss's Big Halloween Defense", just as Khan suggested below. It'll reward you with a lot more EXP than refreshing Mafia Town every time you kill everything there, *and* it's a lot more fun!

However, if you decide to go this route, note that the mod is old (from 2018). Therefore it'll take a minute to load when you go to boot it up for the first time, and that it won't reward you with a time piece upon completion due to an old bug from years ago.

Bruuuh the amount of xp they require you to get is a lot, any chance of adding some kind of customization to change how much xp you get by killing enemy or something? lol

Oh, I thought that was all you. Apologies. I'll try that Halloween Defense map!

I assume you're talking about something to do with the summer event? That was all setup without my knowledge or involvement. Good luck I guess! Do a few runs of mafia town or something -- or better yet, do Mafia Boss's Big Halloween Defense, that's one I found pretty fun to play with the guns during testing.

How the hell is anyone supposed to get 5000 EXP? I just did a complete genocide run on Mafia Town and got less than 1000 EXP, and this already took me ages...

the mafia are quaking in their boots now that child has GUN.

You can turn off breakables spawning rocket ammo in the config options. Regardless, they should despawn after about 20 seconds, though now that I say that I think collectibles are automatically optimized to freeze in time when they're not on screen. I'll see about fixing that in the first patch.

one issue is that the rockets get spawned in maps like vannesa's curse and hattle royale where they will never get collected and build up over rounds

Oh this is an amazing mod! Love how much you were able to keep the attributes and details of the weapons and translate those to 3D.

I love being able to swing the King's Blade in the air. I just wish that was possible for other weapons. This is SUCH a cool pack! By and large my favorite weapon set!

YESSSS 3D CAVE STORY LETS GOOOO

top notch mod

Hands down my favorite mod right next to the PK Okay Earthbound mod, bout time there was some more Cave Story mods. Very well made!
