We've done our best.
I guess I can be satisfied with that.
The fighting isn't over, and really, it never will be.
But with you by my side, I think I can handle it.

Whether it's with a warm fire or a kind rain...
We'll build a home we can be proud of.

(bossgame spoilers)



ok so I've been kind of obsessed with video game secrets recently, and it's only gotten worse after finishing Void Stranger. So I've got a question for y'all ~

What do you think makes for a good secret?

A secret is basically anything involving hidden information. Things the game doesn't tell you, or only tells you partially, or only tells you in a roundabout way. Things that are fun to investigate, unravel, and discover!

  • Binding of Isaac indicating where secret rooms are via certain map shape
  • Tunic hiding shortcuts via camera angles
  • Equipping extra pins in Hollow Knight by repeatedly forcing it into the slot
  • Any sidescroller where you can go left at the start of a level to find a hidden item

I want to find new ways to hide secrets in my own games, so I'd love to hear what you think!
Are there methods of hiding & finding secrets you think are really interesting? Are there methods you find frustrating? What's the most unique hidden secret you've experienced?

Thank you so much for your time!! :eggbug-smile-hearts:


โš ๏ธ Regarding Spoilers (click to read) Spoilers probably don't matter for minor secrets or older games, but for major secrets in recently released games, please consider using rot13 to hide the spoiler (leave the title as normal so ppl know which game you're spoiler)

Or you can always rechost and hide info using the "details" and "summary" HTML tags like i did for this section! (these don't work in comments).

This one is on BOSSGAME: The Final Boss Is My Heart and why the queer relationships in it meant so much to me (plus why some of the other themes resonate so much).

I am a disabled queer writer between dayjobs so any support is appreciated. Let me know what you think if you do read it~
