God is a Geekby Gary Bailey
7/10
Planet Alpha is a gorgeous thing to look at and it starts well, but its second half struggles with its level design and can become frustrating as a result.

7/10
Whilst an enjoyable and undoubtedly beautiful game, Planet Alpha never quite makes the leap into classic territory. There is an admirable sense of vision here and the commitment to a non-verbal narrative is striking, but Planet Alpha remains a functional game under the gorgeous aesthetic. The fusions of cinematic platformer and endless runner often feel at odds with one another as the game pushes you forward when you most want to stand back and enjoy the view. Life here comes at you fast; blink and you'll be vaporised or crushed by a mile high leviathan.

The Digital Fixby Jason Coles
8/10
Planet Alpha is a gorgeous trek through an alien world and the strange timey wimey things that afflict it. While the pacing can occasionally feel a little bit off, the slower moments do allow you time to take everything in. The puzzles are the only real challenge throughout and most aren't so obtuse that they become frustrating so it works well. If you are after a striking world to get lost in then maybe this is the one for you.

Garbage

This is a boring, repetitive side-scroller, nothing more, nothing less. Maybe it becomes more intersting later, but about 15 minutes of this was all that I could take before uninstalling it. Glad that I only paid $9.99 for it. If I could take a refund I would, even for that amount. Some people might like this type of game, but not me.
