After Goldman’s death, his father sent Monroy an email (graciously shared with TheGamer.com) telling her, "Seth had a real dream come true" due to her work with Team Cherry. "He LOVED that game," he said, adding "Seth's soul lives on in a video game and in the hearts of all that knew h
While looking forward to Silksong , Goldman learned that he had Ewing Sarcoma - an aggressive form of cancer that can metastasize from bone to lungs, spine, and other bones and soft tissues. Earlier this year Goldman’s caretakers informed him his case was terminal, with a prognosis of only a few more months to l
Monroy contacted Team Cherry and found them enthused to work with Goldman. Initially, all the young man wished for was a video conference with the creators of his favorite game. That one meeting turned into several and Team Cherry invited Goldman to make a custom NPC boss character in their under-development game Hollow Knight: Silkso
Amidst other preparations, Goldman’s father contacted The Marty Lyons Foundation (founded in 1982 by NY Jets Legend, Marty Lyons), a non-profit dedicated to realizing the wishes of children ages 3 to 17 diagnosed with terminal diseases. Krystal DeWitt Monroy, Director of Program Services, resolved to make Goldman’s Hollow Knight dream a reality. Monroy has coordinated several other gaming wishes before, and finds us a "wonderful, generous community". Corresponding directly with TheGamer.com via email, she describes Goldman as a special young man and she "was happy to have coordinated his wi
Sony began the year of PS Plus with Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection , a remastered collection of the first three games in the series. With developer Naughty Dog's next big game , The Last of Us Part 2 a little over two months away from being released, there's another great spin-off game that didn't receive quite the same love as its numbered predecessors and would be a fantastic pick as a PS Plus title for anyone that missed it: Uncharted: The Lost Lega
Grubberfly’s Elegy: It allows the Knight to deal a special slash attack if they are at full health. This slash attack is far-reaching, allowing the Knight to take out enemies before they even come close to harming t
Allowing players to explore a fallen bug kingdom, Hollow Knight is a metroidvania game where players can fight difficult bosses and collect several charms. One of the more infamous unmarked quests in the game involves transporting a pale flower from one side of the map to the other. The catch? The Knight can’t use the stag ways and can’t take any damage. Otherwise, the delicate flower will be destroyed and the Knight will be forced to go back and start from the beginn
Mark of Pride/Longnail: Both charms lengthen the character’s nail, allowing the player to strike enemies from a longer distance. They can even stack their effects on top of each other, giving the Knight the farthest reach possi
Goldman designed the boss’ look and named him after himself as a sort of memorial. Team Cherry was happy to work with Goldman, describing him as "a really cool young guy we were fortunate enough to meet and get to know." Team Cherry revealed Seth in a Reddit post teasing that he "guards a secret long forgotten and will attack any who stray too close", and "will fight until the very end, and beyond." Goldman got to see Seth in action before passing, "I saw some footage and he is amazing and fast." It was easy to read pride in another post where Goldman called Seth "a monst
Being able to have quick attacks and move quickly is key when you’re going up against this boss. Of course, if you’re also quick with your magic, being able to use the dive attack will benefit you grea
This leaves you with even less time to dodge and weave before taking a couple of shots for yourself. We wouldn't blame anyone for choosing to leave this optional boss behind, so it's definitely one for the completionist players out th
Sundered is very similar in design to Dead Cells , but it has the art aesthetic of Hollow Knight Secrets|Https://Hollowknightportal.Com/ Knight . To be clear, it’s a roguelike with Metroidvania elements, but it is one big open maze that can be tackled in a number of ways. It also has a pretty robust skill tree which is necessary because this game is going to kick the player in the behind. That is to say, expect some heavy grind
Bug Fables , if the name didn’t give it away, is also about a bunch of bugs. That’s the simple connection to Hollow Knight , but Nintendo fans will especially get a kick out of it for emulating the more classic Paper Mario games. The homage is clear from the gameplay to the paper aesthetic. Don’t sleep on 2020’s secret hit, Bug Fabl
There are few indie developers around that are as simultaneously revered and underrated as the Toronto based Drinkbox Studios. Making a name for itself during the age of PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita, Drinkbox is best known for indie hits such as Tales From Space: Mutant Blobs Attack , Guacamelee! , and Severed , and currently the only game that hasn't been released on PS Plus is the 2018 Metroidvania platformer , Guacamelee!
