You can now capture the crazed physics-driven deaths of your little wizard in Noita. U/troyirving on Reddit has discovered a 'replay_recorder_enabled' line tucked away in Noita's config file. All you have to do is find it, change a 0 to a 1, and you'll be presented with the option to create a gif upon future deaths. Here's a quick step-by-step.

Hit Windows+R and enter %appdata%\..\LocalLow\Nolla_Games_Noita\save_shared into the empty text box.

Use notepad (or the text editor of your choice) to open the config file.

Control+F and search for replay_recorder_enabled, then change the "0" to a "1".

Now when you die in game you have the option to view the replay. You can change the centre of view for the final gif, and set start and end points with a couple of clicks, then press enter to export.

There's only one little bug I've found. The gif folder link doesn't go to the right place for me, but you can navigate to your saved gifs at C:\Users\(user)\AppData\LocalLow\Nolla_Games_Noita\save_shared

Enjoy! Here's one I made earlier. Noita is out now in Early Access.

Noita, the "action roguelite" in which every pixel is physically simulated, is headed to Steam Early Access on September 24. To mark the big news, developer Nolla Games dropped a new trailer showcasing how that simulation translates into gameplay.

James described Noita in a preview last year as a "hilarious, horrifying wizard death experiment," because magic is necessary but the results of using it are unpredictable—often dangerously so. Waving your wand around carelessly is as likely to bring a ton of rocks down on your head as it is to dispatch your enemies, and it seems remarkably easy to set yourself on fire. 

I'm not sure what Noita is actually about, but I don't think it necessarily matters either. The goal is simply to delve as deeply as you can—that is, until you die—and experimentation (and quick thinking) would seem to be at the core of the experience: Dispatching enemies may be easy enough, but can you avoid the fallout that follows? 

Noita is expected to be in Early Access on Steam for about a year.
