Fantastic Mr. Fox
Pros: - cleaver season changing mechanic leads to some great level design - cute pixel art - good music Cons: - game forces you to backtrack to collect items from previous levels

A Classic SNES-Style Platformer
While everyone else was infatuated with making retro games based on the NES, this developer jumped up a generation. This is modeled after a classic SNES Platformer, and it shows; the aesthetic, music, and even design are dead on. Visually, it draws influence from titles of what I call medium obscurity, like those old Banpresto Platformers that never left Japan, but also later titles, like Aero the Acrobat 2. The music has vibes from all over the system; not the more obvious games, like your Marios or your Mega Mans. Clearly, this was made by someone who loves the SNES and really did their homework. Great, so how is it? Well, it's solid; the level design presents a challenging and engaging obstacle course, and most of the stages are fairly long. There are no lives to speak of, so dying will take you all the way back to the beginning, but it does so instantaneously to keep you in the action. You can mitigate this by shelling out some of your hard-earned money to unlock checkpoints throughout each stage. Along the way, there are also treasures to be found that unlock your ability to earn upgrades or play bonus stages. Boss fights are clever and engaging, and even the few Scrolling Shooter sections are very reasonable. It's a solid, quality title that will keep you going for several hours; I absolutely got what I signed on for!

PICK UP & PLAY WITH A LITTLE MORE
Fox N Forests may not have the most creative name for a game, but it's tied in with the stroyline and it's about a wise old tree/magic seeds you collect and a magical weather season's changing crossbow weapon. From there we get a mix of a game I bought on Android that's called "Chronology" relating to the weather changing crossbow except Chronology used a timepiece instead of a crossbow and that forwarded/reversed and returned time back to normal to provide a route alternative to pass areas otherwise inaccessible. That's basically the premise with this game but regarding the seasons, you change the sesonal weather to freeze waterfalls etc to progress through otherwise inaccessible landscapes, the weapon is otherwise just a single shot simple crossbow weapon at the starting level with a swipe action from I have played so far any way I've not gone to far into the game yet, but I will eventually. The game plays in a 16bit retro pixel graphics art form with a nostalgic and catchy theme track that's 16bit chiptune style. It's got some minor retro-esque themes for the character conversation which to be honest can drag a little having to read that much text becomes somewhat tedious at times before moving into the game or when your chatting to a character you meet along the way etc. Otherwise your getting a simple pick up and play platform game with a retro 16bit theme that is very well polished, maybe a a little lite on the action in parts where there seems to be a bit too much landscape and background artwork taking up that screen real estate versus enemies to combat, it would certainly benefit from a few extra enemies in places that seem a little hollow at times, but this can be forgiven. The music is great pretty catchy in fact and the attention to artwork detail is above average, the game also has native gamepad support which is ideal if your looking for console type games for PC then this title is one to add to your collection for sure. But don't expect too much from Fox N Forests yes it is detailed to an extent yet still somewhat simplistic but it does make it comfortable for all to play and despite any flaws which aren't many then what is there to play is very well crafted and therfore it does hit above it's weight for what it aims to acheive. A total scorefrom me of 4.0 out of 5.0

Very Bad Control options
Keyboard layout is a mess , and the half harted controller setup ( it is all guess work ) Very lazy devs , glad I waited until it was on sale.
