Treasure Adventure Game

This is a labour of love, and if you just play it for 10 minutes, you'll see what I mean. It gets pretty difficult at times, but when you overcome those challenges, you are rewarded many times over. Undeniably one of the best adventure games ever, and it's free!

It's hard to find new classics when, especially today, it seems like everyone is developing games that harken back to their childhood. This is one of those titles, much like Cave Story, that capture that nostalgic feeling of 8 and 16- bit gaming, while still offering something new and interesting enough to hold your attention (where the classics of old might not in this day and age). Extremely unique, well developed, fun and very challenging in many areas, Treasure Adventure Game deserves a title that stands out against the countless "me too" non-linear, side-scrolling platformers that are all the rage in the indie scene today. It is one of the very, very few games that I made time to find every item, locale and objective during my playthrough, and those are exceedingly scarce today in my extremely busy middle-age.

being a fan of metroidvania style I really liked this game. Long (I am at more than 10 hours and still not at the middle of the game) enjoyable, well made. I even find it better than cave story which was a great game. Really a must have for those who like that kind of game

I just forced myself to quit the game, it became addicting in the first minutes after i figured out the controls. Haven't yet finished it, but already want to speak some kind words about it. Basically the game is: a great platformer (jumping, collecting coins, occasionaly fighting a monster), a great adventure (solving logical puzzles, discover the, very nice so far, story), and great audio-visual homage to old pixel-art-with-lo-fi-synth-music games. It also has a pretty open world for exploration. It will test the dexterity of your fingers as well as skills of your brain, and provide cute easthetics for the eye and nice tunes for the ear. It's everything you'd expect from a good indie: excellent gameplay that's in every bit against the mainstream formula of no-difficulty-hand-holding, cliché story, brawl and big tits, gore gutter splat, multimillion-dollar marketing etc. A product of passion, a work of art.

Game looks nice and seems fun, but crashes after a short while if you do not "Run as administrator". No-go for me. Arbitrary software and games should not need that.
