Reviews for Everything Start to Fall

Nice, but pretty linear.

This game reminds me of Passages--in theme, if not in game play. I like the visual representation of life's stages. The changing abilities as he ages is a nice touch.

What disappointed me about the game is that it failed to address how choices and consequences affect one's life. The path branches once or twice during the teen years, but it all leads to the same adulthood and (oddly short) old age. I would have liked to see the paths branch out more, with each path in a given life stage leading to a different "level" in the next life stage.

Good...

This game seemed to have a hidden meaning to me. This is life - all the good moments pass by, and the bad ones are treacherous. I always love games that make me think, and this one fit that nicely. Every event in the boy's life was portrayed well.

My biggest complaint, however, was the controls. While, slightly off controls normally don't make too much of a difference, in a game where the platforms are practically microscopic, perfect controls are practically expected. Often the controls would make my character move a little after I landed, making me fall.

In short, an overall beautiful game hindered by somewhat unresponsive controls.
