Great platformer with tight controls, cool graphics and nice soundtrack. It's on the easy side, so if you are looking for a challenge this is not the game for you, but that's a huge plus for me: I've never felt frustrated while playing, I spent the whole time relaxed and having fun. The only thing that I didn't love were the cinematics in between the chapters. Although they're well animated and narrated, they simply serve as a recap of what just happened, making them quite pointless. This comes from a solo developer, which is even more amazing. I'd love to see a sequel with a bigger budget and more people working on it, but not a too many. Let's say nough to be able to flesh out the levels, maybe with the addition of a few genre tropes like hub worlds, more collectibles and NPCs... but not too many that the awesome home-made labor of love feeling gets lost).
I mean, it's... ok? It seems like Spiders tried to bite more than they could chew. There's some excellent world building, with great backstories and motivations for each faction and companion, but it's all rather bogged down by very repetitive missions that require constant back and forth between places. This is a problem both outside (as stunning and gorgeous as the environments are, there are very few enemy kinds, which makes traversing them rather boring after a while) and inside (every building in every city and village is exactly the same). I would like to see a higher-budget sequel (or same budget, but with a more narrow scope and a tighter game-world). I'd give it 3 stars, but I want to acknowledge the dev's ambition and I'll give it 4.
Ok. Don't mess this one up. This game doesn't deserve yet another *stupid* review, like all the other ones you wrote. This is THE game. This is THE game that will make everything alright. This is THE game that will take us by its hand and lead us toward the End. You praticed. You can do this. You have been sober for 13 hours straight. STRAIGHT. Just be calm. And be nice. No need to be MEAN against all those ultraliberal game studios. They are all a bunch of racists anyway. You got this. Give this *incredible* game the review it *deserves*. Go. Do it. NOW. FAILED -- Easy: 6 vs Your total: 5 -- Rhetoric: 2 Dice: 2+1=3 Umhhh this game good, Kitsuragi! Many hours. Dilaogue much, boring? NO! Atmosphere snowy. ANCIENT REPTILIAN BRAIN Come now, come. You did your best, little one. It's all over.
