I liked the plot, but I felt like the gameplay in the later levels was more irritating than hard. VanBakker's review really sums it up.
Reviews for "Quietus II"
It's so ridiculously hard on some levels that it's no longer fun.
I like the music, the atmosphere, and the platform construction. Indeed, there's nothing wrong with the design of the stages. Where I ding points, and this is important, is that I am a human being. Requiring pinpoint precision on jumps and landings with a character that has slippery footwork is not the way to make a great platformer. If I underestimate the timing of a trap, then that's my fault and I have no problem with that, I don't blame the designer for it. Where I get annoyed is when I have to sit there in a game that should be about *having fun* and I'm trying to calculate through repeated playthroughs the exact fraction of a second that I have to tap the arrow key so my character goes just far enough without going so far (ie, two steps instead of one step, or three instead of two) that they safely get around instead of not going far enough and dying or going too far and dying. Trial and error requiring split-second timing in stages that require several pinpoint jumps and landings within the span of a couple seconds or two... and the traps with the death fish that seem to require you to fail the first time in order to see what particular pixel is the trigger? If I make human errors, nothing doing, the game can still be fun. But the controls make it feel like I'm not wanted to do well or advance to the next stage; that for some reason getting farther into the game almost seems like a slap in the face to the designer. A game shouldn't feel like that, and that's why nice as it is otherwise I'm giving 3 stars.
aight
nice n challemnging
however i felt like for how exact you needed to be to not die the slippery controls werent exactly doing you any favors
on lvl 9 very time i move it gets laggy and i cant beat it becuase of that. i dont think its my laptop becuase the other lvls worked just fine.
