Judgement: Not Recommended
View review on Steam
Got this for free on steamgifts playing appreciated group. I randomly decided to try to get it based on the thumbnail alone and the fact that i usually like minimalistic puzzle games. This game howhever is quite amateur and i have no idea how it even got accepted on steam. Even more surprising is that it's supposed to be a sequel. Were there no lessons learned from the first one?! I can't possibly recommend this game to anyone until the developer fixes some basic flaws:
- gameplay mechanics are clunky
- there is no usability on the direction of the ball throw, which is the main game mechanic, a simple change of graphics indicating the direction more clearly on the ball / rotator thingie would help immensely
- visually ugly
- no soundfx
- no animations or visual effects of any sort
- levels don't seem to have any difficulty level scaling or any real thought process behind them, they don't drive the player to understand the basic concepts, they are often unnecessarily confusing or just repetitive
- even the new elements that are introduced to make things more interesting feel dull, uninspired and the wrong type of frustating
This game is so bad you should be paying people to suffer through it, not asking money for it. If you're putting a price tag on things people will expect a minimum of effort. There are hundreds of better and cheaper alternatives out there for minimalistic puzzle games, check those instead, avoid rot 2.
