A community, dedicated to the ongoing adventures of DICK - as well as any potential future streams.

Current Fedi Plays: Fedi Plays Dragon Warrior Monsters

Available commands:

  • "up" - Move up
  • "down" - Move down
  • "left" - Move left
  • "right" - Move right
  • "start" - Press Start button
  • "select" - Press Select button
  • "a" - Press A button
  • "b" - Press B button
  • use "a4" to do 4 "A" button presses. you can left10 to do 10 left button presses.
  • I'm [solidheron] able to get the latency down to 7 seconds 4 or witch are just interval between inputs (that's what my testing says)

How It Works

  • enter a command into chat
  • closets command to the 4 second check will get executed
  • Multiple viewers' inputs create chaotic and unpredictable gameplay

So you want to play with our DICK (no, I won't ever stop these kinds of jokes on here, at least until the Dragon Warrior: Monsters stream is over) - but playing with it is harder than anticipated? Frustration getting you down? Here's some tips:

  • Everything is case-sensitive right now. "A" won't work, "a" will
  • Repeated inputs can get lost quite often, so instead of doing "a" "a" "a", try "a" "a 2" "a" for example. (Hopefully without causing issues from pressing a 2 times in the middle) - or "a" "select" "a", using a neutral command in menu navigation in the middle, where precision is important
  • Sometimes, an input can get stuck, likely a directional input, causing our DICK to ram straight into something. Another input should get him unstuck again
  • In menu navigation, both "a" and "b" can sometimes sadly not register properly, even when the script itself seems to register the command in the terminal. using items on the right monster can be an adventure in itself, for example, because of that. If you don't have to be precise, use a series of "a" or "b" - using "b 10" to just exit out of the menu instead of just "b" is more reliable, for example

Think that jank is unacceptable? Not a fan of comedy from frustration? Check out the script on GitHub and see if you can implement some fixes/features.

You don't need an account to play.

There is delay to playing. Button commands are case sensitive at the moment. There are some quirks, like repeat commands not always working, so you have to interlace other commands that won't do anything.

Lesson learned: Don't just mindlessly end every combat with b input chains
