Reviews for "Sky Island"

This isn't my game...

This isn't my type of game, but I'm a fair reviewer, so I'll review for the viewers of the review, not my own thoughts on the game type.
The gameplay was fun but kind of annoying. I got tired of dragging my mouse across the screen so much. I like to always have my hands on the key board in a platformer. Sorry, but a simple turn button would be. This isn't the Nintendo DS, you shouldn't act like this is a touch screen. However, this could make a great replacement for Kirby. Overall game gets an 8.7. good work.

Bit reluctant to give this a full 5 star rating, in light of the fact that it's quite cheaply stolen the concept of the notorious yet-to-be-released indie game fez (although some acknowledgement is given in the tags!) But overall, a well designed and programmed game that manages to quite effectively exploit it's core mechanic (although I could imagine a few other ways that could maybe have given the game more depth), with nice pseudo-pixel graphics and serviceable music. This apparently fell under my radar when it came out, and it's only in newgrounds new layout I was able to find it! Shame this did not get a bit more recognition despite the fact that fez's concept is written all over it.

Great game, but when moving the viewpoint around with the camera it is a bit laggy and can make you a little dizzy at the same time, but still addicting and fun.

Le game: click and drag to find a new perspective

Le me: *gasp* what is this witchcraft??????

but awesome game nonetheless

Kinda reminds me of Fez.... But anyway, AWESOME game. My first reaction: "Oh. It's a platformer........
HOLY MOLY THIS GAME IS COOL."
