lol!

For anyone interested, this review is a little glowing at times but it outlines precisely the sort of game play you'll be getting and the mechanic(s) involved.

To quote the review directly:

"That constraint -- knowing everything can't be accomplished immediately -- drives Minit's gameplay loop. Some attempts will be spent wandering and trying to piece together what's next; some will rely on execution after having already figured out how to proceed. It's all surprisingly low-stakes because there's the inherent safety net that a botched run will only take one minute to rectify."

While waiting, you can check out a review like this: https://www.destructoid.com/review-minit-497030.phtml It explains everything about the gameplay.

Sounds interesting; I might pick it up one day.

Wasn't it GOG who declined lots of good games for being 'too niche'?

This one looks like it should be on itch.io. For free.

Or maybe it was just released two days too late and was supposed to be an April's Fools joke by the curation team?

I think Devolver Digital signed a special contract with Gog .

I see your Clyde and raise you one:

How appropriate! :D

No, no, no... What this needs is a silently-mouthed wtf from Blade. :P

Still waiting for that apology to Degica GOG.

The art is very clear and appealing for such low resolution black and white. A dash of color would be nice, but they did a good job keeping everything detailed without having it turn into a mess of indistinguishable pixels.

It doesn't sound very much like Half-Minute Hero. That game was primarily about finding the right order of checkpoints and items to extend the clock. This one looks closer to a couple of short Flash games where you rely on information gathered in the previous playthrough to do completely new things the following playthrough.

It DID get a 10 from Destructoid. Don't forget, graphics are not everything. But since gameplay seem to be the selling point in this one I really would like to try this in a demo before spending $10 for a minimized black and white cartoon.

And after the apology, immediately bring Koihime Enbu to GOG please.

I find the art style intriguing. There are not even shades of gray. But despite it being just black and white I can tell everything very clearly apart. I've seen what feels like about twenty-five thousand minimalist games in my time on Newgrounds. Minit belongs here and not with them.

Also "Tamagotchi meets Majora's Mask". How could you not want that? I think we're looking at the new FEZ right now - but without Phil Fish. :)

If you'll excuse me, I'm off digging for reviews. But this one goes to my wishlist for sure.

It does look neat. i don't get this No tesselation? bah! people.
To my whislist as well.
