Enjoyable
Overall, I liked this game. The puzzles required thinking outside the box and I enjoyed the weird, unconventional style of progression. It was short, yes, but since this game was a port, there isn't much you can do about that. The bee controls were the most frustrating part, even once I got used to them, however this did not kill the enjoyment for me. It was an amusing journey and the end was as weirdly fun as the game itself.
Yep, it's one of those games
This is a genre of games that is becoming more cliché and steretypic for each passing month. This will be a short review, and I've summarized it for your convenience in a checklist below:
-Can you win by doing little more except walking to the right? Check.
-Is it trying to be deeper than it is? Check.
-Chiptune music? Check.
-Retro pixel graphics? Check.
It's not that I dislike an attempt at telling us something, and it makes me happy to see that retro elements can be used and appreciated once again in games. But it has become an excuse to create "games" with no gameplay, interesting content or thought whatsoever, which actually aren't games, but some kind of random thought outlet. Why are we in a dream? Why do people keep dying? Why are we told this when we don't even care? Why the sudden mildly frustrating bee stage, an attempt at gameplay? Could we have been spared from that cringeworthy ending? Technology-wise it worked well, but that is something we take for granted with games.
If this was a first attempt at a real game, I would have looked at it differently, but your profile even says this is what you work with. 4/10 for solid coding and music.
If anyone here is up for an artsy game, I'd suggest trying out "Apples In the tree". It is rather impressing, and was made by a kid on his spare time.
This was made several years ago. But nevertheless - how is it "trying to be deeper than it is"? That's another question that pops in my mind.
All in all thanks for the honest review.
Am i a derp or is this reeeally hard :s
sooo hard
fail
this game is so bad i got to the first jump and couldnt stand it any more it has the slugness of an original 8 bit game and the jump is delayed by like a half a second. i mean work on the game programing a little bit more tell its so smooth that you cream. thats where the real master picese come from. but other the shity controlles the stroy was ok i gess. but still needs to be worked on more
Amazing game
Took me forever to figure out that you have to punch the bunnies (by pressing X) rather than just jumping around them, awesome game though
