A Story About My Uncle

A story about my uncle is a short and sweet little game about jumping on floating islands above a massive, bottomless chasm. I remember seeing gameplay from game a lot back in the day when commentary Youtubers were more a thing. Nowadays, this game is not shown very often. I don't quite know why but I feel like it's purpose in the background of those videos have been replaced with the standard Minecraft parkour videos. It was here that trend seemed to start together with Counterstrike surfing. I have no actual proof of this but that's how I remember it. I did not very much see parkour background footage before those two. Going through the game. The jumping puzzles were never hard or very challenging. I didn't feel like they were the reason for me to keep going. No, the reasson for continuing the gameplay was to listen to this sweet man tell his daughter a story about his past and his uncle. His voice was very soothing and pleasant to listen to as you continued along in the game. I felt like it was somewhat jarring however when I encountered the other voice actors. Like for Maddie or the Village Chief. The story is told from the players perspective, specifically as a story. It would have been fun to hear this grown man make up voices for the characters in his past. It's what I imagined he was doing eitherway. There was no voice actor for his younger self, so the coversations that he and Maddie had felt very hollow and one sided. A consistent problem that I faced when playing the game was the matter distance. This might just be that I need to "Git gud" or that I have a problem of my own. But it always felt like the distance I grapple varied constantly. Sometimes I could grapple from a mile away while other times I had to almost next to the grapple to attach to it. This could, like I said, just be a problem with me. But also a matter of perspective and distance. It was minor problem however. A problem that didn't hinder the storytelling thankfully.

great story and even better gameplay mechanics super fun and affordable and easy to run

Неплохая история, которой не помешал-бы ремейк. У игры большой потенциал, но техническая реализация средняя. Не знаю, что все жалуются на прыжки. Я проходил всё без проблем. Хотя и не без падений. Хотя, задание Медди заставило попотеть.
