enhorabuena, Studio Koba!
While Narita Boy might not blow you away, it's definitely a well-crafted, lovingly made little game. And, sometimes, that's all you need, not all games need to be instant classics or "gems", some are just fun, and, to me, that's what Narita Boy is: a whole lot of fun. The art direction is obviously not for everyone, but if you like what you see in the trailers and screenshots, expect more of that gorgeousness throughout the entire game. As far as I'm concerned, it's some of the downright best pixelart I've seen in a video game in recent times. Gameplay-wise, it's smooth as butter and, just like the team promised in their Kickstarter project, extremely easy to get into but hard to fully master. There are some surprisingly deep mechanics at play and they manage to keep the game feeling fresh even when you're 8 hours in and you're still learning new skills and getting new items that can all be combined with what you've been able to pull off since the very beginning. As for the story, it was a nice surprise, since it's been extremely interesting to learn about the Creator, even if it does get a bit convoluted at times, If you don't care about story in video games, you can enjoy Narita Boy all the same but, in case that's important to you, the game does have one and it's actually pretty engrossing and well thought-out. Now, Unity is infamous for its poor CPU optimization, and, being made in Unity, I was afraid of optimization issues. Fortunately, all my fears were put to rest, since I've had none. It runs very well and you can probably play it on older computers without a problem (running it on an AMD Ryzen 5 with Radeon Vega 8 graphics laptop and it just works). One thing that could be improved, in my opinion, is the lack of key rebinding, though they do give you three different keyboard profiles built around either WASD or the arrow keys. Also, no annoying "this game plays best with a controller" patronizing message, which is always a plus in my book.
