Anima Flux

Great metroidvania with coop in cyberpunk world. Nice art style. Gameplay is fun (a little slow on beginning) and challenging.

Full Walkthrough: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLO_HSUzW9LP4ls33Fj6tJs7CcFO-OMwZx ★★★ Gameplay: + Interesting concept for a metroidvania, adding an unique co-op aspect to the mix, perfect for those looking to play with friends. + Game is player-friendly, providing freedom without excessive hand-holding. + Partner AI becomes invincible during boss fights in solo play which compensating for its lack of smarts. - Partner AI is not very “bright” when playing solo. - No dodge mechanic early on, leading to a lot of face-tanking until you get the dash later on. - Progress items can be hard to access, requiring currency; better guidance and accessibility would improve pacing. Story: Well-suited to co-op play, offering a story that feels connected and suitable for teamwork. Pretty interesting too when it comes to reading the logs and understanding what is truly going on. Graphics: Different, with a dark yet colorful and appealing art style. PC Requirements: Moderate Overall: Anima Flux brings a fresh co-op twist to the metroidvania genre, offering players the chance to explore together without excessive hand-holding, making it a fun and flexible experience. While the partner AI could be smarter when playing solo, its invincibility in boss fights balances this well. Improvements could be made to early game mechanics; adding a dodge option and making progress items more accessible without a currency cost. Overall, it’s a well-rounded, enjoyable experience for players looking for a cooperative metroidvania adventure.

The game is hurt a little by having local only co-op and not online coop, but with some third party programs and one person buying the game, you can sort of get around that. Outside of that, there are some decisions that are a little questionable, and the melee character seemed mostly useless or at least at a significant disadvantage in almost every combat situation which is a shame. There are a lot of things that this game could benefit from, some small examples being destructible objects dropping currency, having less rewardless paths and platforms, and having some more unique upgrades. The objectives are also a little off, it's hard to know what is required and what's not until you hit a hard stopping point and realize the random side quest you accepted and did not complete is actually the reason why the game is disproportionately hard and confusing (Story was rough). There's also one room in particular with three power switches which may have been the most miserable back tracking experience I've ever had in any game ever. Game is very close to being incredible, just needs a few minor tweaks honestly, but will have to give it just an above average rating. I think I'd still recommend it, but I might recommend it as a single player experience instead of coop if you're looking for a general metroidvania itch.

[h2]《男角很短、女角很長的雙人類銀河城》[/h2] 久違的玩到比日本壓縮機還要稀少的聯機類銀河城，我內心感到激昂無比，而且這款遊戲還是該開發商的處女座，更是讓我鼓掌讚揚，勇於開發這種不賣座的遊戲傳遞富含價值的作品值得讚許！ [h3]▼優點[/h3] +遊戲打擊手感優秀 +可探索地圖區域龐大，非線性 +劇情優秀，結局的真相讓人直呼過癮 +劇情含有動畫演示 +豐富的升級元素 +雙人遊玩支援視角分開！ [h3]▼缺點[/h3] [b]-遊戲極度缺乏指引[/b] 遊戲性明明只需要5個小時就可以通關，但我與朋友卻開心地玩了將近10個小時，因為遊戲的指引實在是太差了導致我們有許多時間都在找路，這方面的體驗並不是很好。樹枝阻礙的路線我們並不清楚獲得的強攻擊可以摧毀、發電機也不知道使用震爆裝置可以啟動，遊戲也不是沒有說但就是說的不夠清楚，不會通靈完全不知道該怎麼做。 [b]-支線任務進度不會顯示[/b] 在解支線的部分你是真不知道你的支線進度的，一旦對話過後的NPC就無法再對話，而且支線任務不會記錄在進度，導致你如果隔很久再打開來玩可能就會忘記先前在幹什麼去了。 尋找難民的部分也不知道是找了5個就可以了，沒有回去跟老頭對話就無法完成任務，有點誇張。 [b]-地圖單一路線較為匱乏[/b] 遊戲的傳送點較為鮮少，雖然這對類銀河城玩家來說不是什麼嚴重的詬病。但是地圖有著太多一旦走了就無法往返回去的路，導致許多路都是單向道，一旦錯過探索點就只能找傳送陣折回去再重走一遍，體驗下來不是很理想。 然後地圖間缺乏連接性，例如A區域從頭到尾就是走到底，不會中途有可以連接到B區域的路線，也不會有探索C區域結果可以打開到A區域的捷徑，也是有相連但就是只有連頭跟尾的部分，這點在探索上較不太理想。 [b]-史上讓人最無語的近戰角[/b] 女角開局的話在這款遊戲的體驗上應該相當理想，自動瞄準+極度優秀的射擊範圍讓玩家可以當一個無腦砲台，學會衝刺後與二段跳更是讓這點發揮到了極致。 玩男角就不一樣了，簡直是地獄。雖然他的手也沒有短到哪裡去，但是跟女角這個遠程大砲比起來，他的攻擊就像是小朋友在玩牙籤。地上攻擊僵直非常長，一群怪過來你砍對方一下對方就能摸你十下。 這遊戲雖然衝刺可以取消僵直但很神奇，你在打怪的時候就很難靠衝刺取消僵直，再加上衝刺也不是無敵，實在也好用不到哪裡去。而且卡手的不只是這點，普攻與強攻之間甚至無法快速來回切，唯一最理想的輸出手短就只有不斷跳砍跳砍跳砍，適當用暈技攻擊減少自己受擊的可能性。 但是打得再好也沒有用，因為女角的攻擊手段永遠比男角還要好。 [b]-彈藥補充點有點玄[/b] 復活與補血的位置一直都給的很理想，這點在這款遊戲上並沒有問題。但是補充彈藥的部分永遠不會跟這兩個點在一起，打王關之前絕對不會賣??? 這個彈藥就好像真的只是為了解任務用的，雖然傷害不是很高但這是給男角唯一的遠程輸出手段啊，老子都有錢了居然還買不到??? [h3]■結尾[/h3] 這款遊戲雖然問題點不少但都不是很致命，不是會讓人玩得很生氣的那種。男角再難操控也可以靠操作來彌補，而且基本輸出很高很有嘗試價值。 最棒的是雙人遊玩視角分開的部分，兩人可以分頭行動獨立探索讓聯機遊玩有著更棒的體驗，與朋友一起遊玩的過程真的特別快樂。 最後讓我向這家開發商至上最高的敬意，可以聯機的類銀河城真的為數不多了，我玩得非常感動。

Great metroidvania with fluid combat! Really enjoyed the first hour! The co-op works really well

Jogo muito bom! estou amando a gameplay e o carisma e ironia junto com sarcasmo deles ! a possibilidade de alternar entre os personagens e mto bacana... trilha sonora muito boa e a imersão muito top também! cenario futurista e um tanto sombrio! Fora que da pra jogar coop de sofá ! grata surpresa o game

I have put enough time to say this game is just unfair , the steamdeck aiming is just over the place.

Excelente jogo de no estilo metroidvania, com artes impressionantes e gameplay progressiva. Sua jogabilidade vai se aprimorando conforme adquire novas habilidades ao derrotas os chefes. Possui um grau de dificuldade mediano/difícil, uma vez que ao morrer com um personagem é possível se reviver com o outro, mas a quantidade de inimigos e suas mecânicas podem dificultar muito qualquer ação. Indicado para fãs de metroidvania, que gostam de explorar cenários desafiadores.

Anima Flux é um jogo que brilha em alguns momentos, mas acaba tropeçando em outros. O conceito de um Metroidvania cooperativo é promissor e, em muitos aspectos, funciona bem. A história intrigante e a dinâmica entre os dois personagens são bem executadas, e o combate, uma vez que as habilidades corretas são desbloqueadas, se torna agradável. Porém, a repetição visual e a progressão lenta das habilidades pesam contra o jogo. No final das contas, Anima Flux entrega uma experiência mista. Para os fãs de Metroidvania que estão procurando algo diferente, o modo cooperativo certamente oferece uma nova perspectiva. Mas, se você está esperando uma experiência polida e envolvente do início ao fim, pode se frustrar. O potencial está ali, mas o fluxo, às vezes, parece mais um tropeço do que um avanço.

C'est un très bon jeu, la DA est intéressante, la musique est très bien intégrée, le gameplay est nerveux et varié et l'histoire est intéressante et immersive ! Les cinématiques animés sont magnifiques et donne même envie d'avoir une série animée sur le jeu ! En plus on sens que les devs ont fait ce jeu avec passion, c'est du tout bon ! Je recommande totalement !
