After Death

What a retro jewel! Two people have given their all to create this throwback experience from the 16-bit era. The team decided to mix an action-platformer with some metroidvania elements with excellent results. The game is engaging but it requires a fair dose of patience because it is not an easy one. This sounds frustrating but thankfully the save points and especially the superb OST really makes you push for one more try. In addition, one element that surprised me in a positive way is the plot. It is a simple one, don't get me wrong, this is not a masterpiece in writing. However, it keeps things interesting after a certain point in the game. All in all, it is a must buy game for any retro fans and people interested in hidden gems.

At least a "real" metroidvania! Thks very much :)

Enter the bone zone. More games need to be about a sweet skeleton punching other skeletons.

Fun game

[h1]Que jogo top... Excelente mesmo[/h1] Curto, mas direto ao ponto. Historia intrigante e muito bem revelada. Sem pontas soltas ou dúbias. Graficos e ambientação super competente, muito bem desenhadas e detalhadas com inimigos bem legais e locais diversificados também muito detalhados e bem diferentes um do outro. Um maravilhoso metroidvainia [b]PARA INICIANTES[/b] pois é um tanto linear. O mais acostumados podem se divertir muito mas achar meio curto. Jogo médio/facil. Desafios na medida. Mecnica simples mas muito competente e rapida de "pegar o esquema". Pontos contra - pouca variedade de inimigos e como nao possui sistema de Level, fica pouco recompensador a exploração.

hidden metroidvania gem

[FR] Bien que très classique dans sa formule ce metroid like est une petite perle. Cependant il souffre tout de même de quelques défauts par exemple j'ai pris plusieurs fois de dégats sans comprendre d'ou ça venait et en fait c'est l'interface (hud) qui comme elle n'est pas transparente cache les ennemies et leur projectiles. L'autre principale reproche c'est sur les boss (leurs difficultés est bien dosé dans l'ensemble) par contre sur certains impossible de savoir si on lui a enlevé beaucoup de point de vie ou pas et donc c'est un peu desepérant d'avoir l'impression de d'infligé des dégats sans avoir l'impression que le boss meure ou qu'il a de moins en moins de vie. Dans les bon points je dirais que la musique bien qu'il n'y en ai pas beaucoup est agréable et accompagne bien tout le jeu, les mécanique de jeu liées au améliorations sont plutôt bien pensé et amenées. Le style pixel art du jeu est assez agréable a l'oeil. Si un peu de difficulté ne vous fait pas peur et que vous aimez les metroid like n'hésitez pas le jeu devrait comblé vos attentes. [ENGLISH] Although very classic in its formula, this metroid like is a little gem. However, it does suffer from a few failings for example, I took damage several times without understanding where it was coming from, and in fact it's the interface (hud) which, because it's not transparent, hides the enemies and their projectiles. The other main complaint is about the bosses (their difficulty is well balanced overall), but on some it's impossible to know whether they've had a lot of hit points taken away or not, so it's a bit disappointing to have the impression of inflicting damage without having the impression that the boss is dying or has less and less life. On the good side, although there isn't a lot of music tracks but there are pleasant and a good accompaniment to the whole game, and the game mechanics linked to the upgrades are well thought-out and implemented. The game's pixel art style is quite pleasing to the eye. If you're not afraid of a bit of difficulty and you like metroid like games, don't hesitate, the game should meet your expectations.

ゆったりした動きの骸骨君を動かして探索するメトロイドヴァニア系のゲーム。 ゆったりというかもっさりの方が近いので、キャラを動かすのが正直あんまり楽しくなくてキビキビアクションを求めている私には合わなかった。 ボスはどれも攻撃パターンが2パターンぐらいしかなく、単調なのでその辺りもマイナスか。 ただストーリーはしっかりしてるし、進めて行くうちにできることが増えるに応じて探索範囲が広がっていくというこのジャンル特有の楽しさはちゃんとあるので探索好きならちゃんと楽しめると思う。 レトロゲーを意識した作りになっているのか、グラフィック設定が初期設定の状態だとかなり視認性が悪いので、【Graphic Options】>【CRT MODE SETUP】>【CRT MODE】はOFFにしておくことを推奨する。 ところでこの手のジャンル共通の話でこのゲームだけの問題ではないのだが、ファストトラベルとセーブポイントが微妙に離れていて面倒な作りになってしまうのは何故なのか。 両方の機能をセットにしても良いと思うのだが。わざわざ分離した上に数画面離れた所に設置する意味が正直よく分からない。 メトロイドヴァニア系のゲーム作る人はこの辺りの作りをなんとかしてほしい。

Хорошая игра с простым, но затягивающим геймплеем. Дизайнерам боссов отдельный респект)

A great metroidvania title that features a great retro aesthetic and a banging soundtrack.
