My favorite 2021 release
While I can't say that I found the story of Stonefly exceptional, I liked virtually every other element of the game. I loved the loop of collecting resources, then developing new abilities and upgrading my ship. I liked the concept, a world in which humans are smaller than insects and pilot ships that resemble them. I liked the music, which makes the world feel all the more enchanting, and the graphical style, which reminded me of children's author Eric Carle (of Very Hungry Caterpillar fame). More than anything, though, I loved the combat. While a friend of mind commented on how frantic it could be (which is certainly the case), I found it immensely satisfying to gain competency here. Often when I was having problems, I'd realize that I'd been neglecting an ability that would turn out to be a game-changer. I also found the way that your ship "blows" hostile bugs off of leaves and logs to eliminate them to be satisfying in a way that simply killing them wouldn't be. I was constantly luring or pulling enemies to the sides of the arena, and would punctuate the demise of more irritating foes with a hearty "get the fuck out of here!" Stonefly is an outstanding ARPG, and well-worth your time if you have a soft spot for the genre.
