Reviews for "Persist"

Now here was a fun action platformer game it did seem rather short but I still found this game to be pretty entertaining, The hardest part for me was the last lava area with the rising platforms with the fireballs I eventually got it but was still a nice game and a fun platformer

bei tempi quando portai questo simpatico videogioco sul canale https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oI6arGRLOVk

I vaguely remember something like this from manyland.

the physics are kinda clunky but the game is very good

For being such a short game (granted, short is pretty much par for the course with Ludum Dare games), I thought it was really cute and interesting. The mechanic of taking my body parts until I'm just a head that can't jump or swim is quite out there, but I love it. I would give it the full 5 stars, but I died a few times the first time I played and it got ever so slightly annoying. A couple areas were a bit tricky, especially the end of the last lava area with the rising platforms with the fireballs right between them, but thankfully I persisted and made it through. Twice. Plus, I didn't die as much the second time through. That's gotta mean something. Overall, short but very cute and very well put together.

I did actually encounter a slight glitch in the part before the final area. While running around in fear of the spikes coming down, I think I may have slammed my face into the right wall one too many times, because it stuck me in the running-to-the-right animation. Granted, it didn't hinder me in any way and I proceeded to the final area regardless, but I just thought I should address it.

Also, on a side note, is my little spirit dude a girl? I dunno, the context clues in the ending made it seem that way. I do wish I could've learned how bad they screwed up in life to get murdered, but that's alright. I got redeemed, and I hope my killer has absolutely rotten luck going through this.
