Robbie Swifthand and the Orb of Mysteries

Post by eMTe »

New game from scream681 of Ultimate Chuchu fame. Slightly too dark :P platformer with devotion to details. Worth.

Great gameplay. Great puzzler with a good mood, and very good effects. I didn't finish it as I got a bit too frustrated some way into the game. It seems a bit on the short side, but still very much worth a try.

A great game with an excellent level design. Graphics, animations, sounds and controls are very good. I wished there would've been some more levels (and maybe an editor), but on the other hand the existing levels are more or less perfect (and the last ones are that hard that it will take you some time to beat them.

I think there is a small bug, because when you pause the game the clock doesn't stop. This prevents you from getting a good time when you have to stop playing for a while.

All in all I enjoyed this very much. Hope scream681 will make some more games!
