Reviews for "Shift: Freedom!"

A repeat of the first game... with downsides

Various glitches, especially the one that really frustrates me to where I just can't keep playing. Every time I pull a box, I get eaten by it, and forced to restart the level, even with the slightest tug it's hard to avoid being eaten. Then there's lag spikes throughout.

I rarely do this.

I usually give out great reviews. I'm easy to please.
But this one is god awful, at least with the single glitch that renders all efforts useless on some levels.
On any level with boxes, I have some trouble anyway. My computer is laggy. (Quality control would be nice.)
Positioning boxes is difficult since lag kicks in at the worst time. So I have to pull it back.
But then, the damnedest thing happens. I get sucked inside of the box if I hold space and forward in too long. And it wasn't just one level. Tapping it can prevent the black hole from activating. So I can manage.
But again, the lag kicks in at the worst time. So even if I hold space and tap forward very quickly, the chance of surviving is 50%.

But it's not the game itself that sucks, not at all.,
I played, and completed, Altshift on Mochi.
It was a fantastic remake, and remakes and reboots always tend to bring out the worst in me. I am a gamer after all, albeit a generally more casual one. (I have been known to thoroughly rape console RPGs, though.)
Getting a good rating on a redo, at least from me, magnifies the rating tenfold.
So it was an absolutely lovely game.

The glitch I'm experiencing has more or less murdered it, it seems.
In fact, the five is only the runoff of the locked version. (Yeah, locked got higher than open. Crazy shit, mirite?)

TL;DR -
GLITCH MAKE GOOD GAME SUCK DICK.

Reeeeeeaaaallly buggy

If it weren't for the lagging and bugs constantly plaguing the game, this would actually be very enjoyable, but I went through the game and did not receive multiple medals I accomplished and had to deal with huge lag spikes causing me to die or fail a level multiple times.

Oh the Weird lag

When you pull a block you get teleported to the bottom of the screen, usually into spikes, really long loads, and just kept screwing up, not picking up keys until about the 4th time i walked through them, random slow down on the walking speed for a few seconds and a bit too easy for too long...

SORRY

ITS HARD
