My Walkthrough of Soupor! DS

started this when the battle began. wrote nothing. powered through in the last... 6 hours? no breaks? wrote it. hope u enjoy.

some context is necessary: Soupor! DS is not a real game, but Soupor is, well kinda. Back in 2021 I did a GameJam with my friends, the theme was to make a game about Campbell's Soup with MS Paint graphics, I did all the graphics and music, it sucked major arse but we developed this dumb stupid love for the character of Soupor, a silly little soup can on revenge for dad. The ASCII art at the top of the .txt is actually the exact drawing of Soupor I did for the gamejam. It sucks. Lol.

Since then we thought about making a new Soupor game, we never did but in January of 2024 I started making music, and getting ideas, and had ideas for a reimagined Soupor as a DS game. Mostly did music, never exactly wrote it down, until THIS BATTLE! This battle is all my ideas for a hypothetically Soupor game on DS, that obviously will not happen, but hey it's fun to write about. Anyway.

For writing like a true blue GameFAQs fucker, I just had a look at one specific walkthrough and was like yeah I'll try writing it like that. I think I kinda accomplished that? I suck at video games but i'm too stubborn to look up walkthroughs so I don't have much experience with them. Tried to include random usernames and revision to make it look more "legit". Hope the "Secret Bonus Area" code stuff isn't too hard to figure out, like it really shouldn't be, and yes the codes with the URL do actually lead to something so hopefully that's fun. Anyway it's nearly 4am this Major might've killed me goodbye !

Nice easter egg bonuses! That's a clever addition. My favorite was #3. Shout out to XxS0nicxX92

I think you and I took a similar approach with grammar inaccuracies - I like that the author specifically mentions having run it through a checker despite the remaining grammar issues.

Using the wrong "there" during the spell check tool acknowledgment was delightful lol.

Cool game concept, especially since you could expand on something you actually created!

I love all the ways you riffed on the grocery store setting. (Also, it's interesting that this is not the only entry about groceries.) At first it just seemed like a silly background theme, but once you were getting to things like "flipping a switch to turn the freezer back on, and while the freezer's on you can ignore your expiration date" I was fully won over. On that note, the use of expiration dates and "preservative points" as game mechanics made me laugh out loud. I loved the character names as well.

I also found the writing style very readable. It felt realistic, but also was informal in a way that made the detailed descriptions of levels easier to get through. The occasional side remark on the game's weirder aspects, like "a desert made out of melted ice cream, for whatever reason giving it a sand like quality", added variety.
