i'm still curious what coriander meant that one time about "perfect games". like "do you know what i mean when i describe a game as perfect"

i made a case for n++ being a "perfect game" in some sense and they said "i agree that it is, but we're defining the term differently"

@monorail Did I never define it for you?? I thought I did

A perfect game is a game that can be completed without ever taking damage while also engaging in, for lack of a better term, intended play

It doesn't mean as much in 3D games but something like Castlevania, Mega Man, those are perfect games

Follow

@coriander @monorail can a game be perfect is the hitless run depends on rng

@wallhackio @monorail The lack of the RNG element is one of the main elements of the definition, you have to be able to do it entirely under your own power
