Aggelos

A prima vista sembrava un metroidvania interessante, localizzato pure in italiano e con una trama che si scopre passo dopo passo. Si è rivelato almeno per me un incubo anche solo giocarlo, con il joypad poi i comandi non erano molto reattivi, per non parlare della mappa quasi inesistente e che non ti mostra le camere già visitate. L'ho abbandonato al secondo boss del modo sottacqua, troppo veloce nei movimenti e nemmeno una strategia adeguata. Per fortuna l'ho comprato scontato.

GG Jogão, queria poder apagar ele da minha mente para ter a experiência de jogar novamente sem saber nada. muito bom, recomendadíssimo

good game.

Fun retro style 2d adventure platformer. If you've played Wonder Boy games in the past this game is very similar. The gameplay involves exploring the world, visting towns, figuring out which dungeon to go to, beat the dungeon, and see what opens up next. There's plenty to explore and discover yourself. There are various equipment upgrades and abilities you can learn throughout the adventure which open up new areas to explore. The world is small enough you don't get lost, but there's also no detailed map so you might forget exactly where you saw something to come back for later. The art style is really nice. Each piece of equipment changes your appearance. The music is good at capturing the retro vibe. Enemies look interesting, the various areas you visit are detailed and you'll want to explore them all. Each enemy has a different attack or movement pattern and each area introduces some new enemy type. There are also various large monsters and bosses to take on. Playing with a d-pad is recommended as some of the abilities need to be chained together and you'll want to make sure your inputs are being registered correctly. The only downside of this game is a difficulty spike when you're not able to improve your equipment further but need to defeat tough enemies and a boss. I was ready to stop playing at this point but what kept me going was grinding some levels. The game doesn't communicate what leveling up does - but it increases your attack and defence.

7/10

Se o boneco fosse só mais um pouco pesado ele n saia do lugar mais

Salve ho la rog xbox ally x,quando avvio il gioco e sono nel menu di gioco, i tasti non vengono riconosciuti, sapete se cè una soluzione?

Depois de dar final (duas vezes) e pegar todos os achievements, hora da análise. Aggelos é um metroidvania com alma de jogo antigo. Tanto os gráficos quanto as músicas e efeitos sonoros remetem a jogos dos anos 90. No todo, é um jogo simples mas com base sólida e gameplay razoável. Seguem os pontos positivos e negativos: + Gameplay sólida e sem bugs; + Músicas e efeitos sonoros 8Bits bons; + Variedade de armas e armaduras que alteram a aparência do personagens; + Boa variedade de golpes e magias; + Exploração recompensada; + Quantidade razoável de monstros e boss; + O modo HARD é realmente difícil; - Graficamente simples demais, poderia ser mais elaborado; - A história é bem simples e sem grande profundidade; - A maioria dos boss são derrotados spammando ataques igual louco; - Os comandos de golpes de espada muitas vezes saem errado na hora da movimentação; No todo é um bom jogo, mas poderia ser melhor. especialmente nos gráficos e nos controles dos golpes especiais. Eu diria que é um bom titulo para crianças (no modo Normal) e para anciões saudosos (no modo hard). Recomendável.

A must have for all Wonder Boy buffs.

It's not bad, it's just very mediocre and doesn't have basic qol like rebinding keys, window size multiplication or decent frame pacing. No matter what you do, the framerate jumps around a lot, even entirely skipping frames. Not just "oh it was only there for a moment", but outright "that frame just didn't appear at any time". the enemy patterns are all very rough and break game design fundamentals, like random movements that exceed your attack radius/safe distance control, and you aren't given the appropriate kit to reliably avoid damage. the environment design is very basic and function-first, but also not very functional to navigate. It gets very slow going from place to place very early on, and the slippery movement and blind jumps make it easy to miss your target and get set back, wasting more time. it pretends to be a search-action, but the hints are very straightforward, there's very little to explore so far, and the game has been completely linear in terms of progress. there's no save point in the second dungeon, and the only savepoint nearby is likely to be missed until you exit out of the dungeon. Combine that with a long treck from the nearest savepoint to said dungeon, and it's just needless timewasting. Similarly, a lot of other aspects of the game seem to want to slow you down. music isn't offensive, but also isn't that good. same with the graphics and sound. It's all very "this is good enough right? have I met the quota yet?" The writing so far has been downright bad; I don't expect a deep plot, but if you're going to have a shallow get-the-mcguffin-to-save-the-day plot, get the text out of the way already. It doens't matter that "someone wouldn't really say that" because nobody cares about these characters or this story. The game has an awkwardly long blank when opening the menu as if to mimic bank switching or high-dpi rendering in cartidge games, but it's just kind of awkward and wastes more time. It might be worth it if you've run out of better games to play and are desperate for something search-action dressed without any real search in it. It might be worth it for $2. I would recommend aiming for less unless you're desperate. MSRP is out to lunch on this one. There's just so many better games out there nowadays.
