Chasm

Easy to like and enjoy. Excellent for casual gamers. Controller response is perfect, difficulty settings are spot on. Just plain old-school type fun :)

Sliding along walls, running backwards (like SOTN), double jumping. These mechanics make the exploration really enjoyable and relaxing. About story, there are very interesting puzzles, that sometimes will fly over your head, but the hints are there. So the puzzles are quite challenging if you make long pauses during your game time. The story itself is simple. I'd say the lore is shallow. The side quests are fun, even if it's just finding items for the villagers. I thought the bosses were a bit generic and not very challenging. The pixel art is great. I love pixel art games. In the end, it was a very fun experience. Even with the cons, I couldn't stop playing it, so it's a 4/5.

As the title says. HOWEVER: THE GOOD: -Art assets and direction is coherent and solid -Music is fitting and superbly done -Game is responsive and allows for many styles of gameplay THE BAD: -Controls can be iffy/annoying at times, specially on keyboard -Walljumping makes getting off a ledge grab a toss up between falling down where you want to go and jumping off in to the other direction -The procedural generation makes following a guide/walkthrough nigh useless THE ODD: -THEM SILKY SMOOTH SPRITE ANIMATIONS -The ending is VERY meh

Fun game!!! I enjoyed every minute of it. good metroidvania for the collection. Unfortunately it doesnt have replayability. After i beat the game i uninstalled it because there was nothing else to do.

There is something about this game that makes it really satisfying to play. Maybe it's the beautiful animations or maybe it's the difficulty level that is just right (not to hard, not too easy), or maybe it's the variety it gives by combining elements of rougelike and metroidvania genres. I don't know what it is exactly, but it certainly works. I beat the game a few years back and now I'm playing it again and it still provides me with tons of fun. Highly reccomended!
