Lovely in places but...
Control scheme not rebindable (WASD for movement + Space/Shift for jump + E for actions and sometimes left click for a different actions). There are levels where directions of movements will change (so 'S' becomes 'left' instead of 'back/down'). Movements themselves aren't very precise but the game requires quite a lot of precise first-person platforming and without even being able to see the character's legs it creates some frustration, especially when checkpoint in that section is badly located. There is an especially irritating ice level where you'd have to do a lot of jumping on a tiny surfaces while your movements on that level have increased slide, so it is easy to slip and start all over again. There is no manual save option and game only gives one save slot for autosave anyway, so two people cannot play this game at the same time. Checkpoints are mostly ok but in several places they aren't and game becomes very frustrating. There is one _incredibly_ annoying chase level when failure at any of stage of the chase will reset the whole chase, even if those stages aren't big it isn't a nice level to play. Puzzles are mix and there are some nice ones but many are quite simple. Some additional efforts (puzzle or platforming) are usually needed to find collectable teddy bears. So far I've met a couple of situations where it was needed to throw an object into specific position but this process doesn't handle itself well and it is mostly luck and retries. At some point one of the objects got stuck and it was impossible to recover it without restart of the level. In general, I have an impression that physics are not very reliable. Game has just three options: screen resolution, fullscreen yes/no and vsync yes/no. No sliders for sounds, no choice to rebind the keys, no antialiasing or special effects of any kind. While I like aesthetics quite a lot, without any kind of video enhancements it looks a bit dated. Music is very good, sometimes excellent.
Is this helpful to you?
