The incorporation of imaginative landscapes and enemy encounters adds depth to the gameplay and keeps it engaging.

The BEST platform game I have played in recent times!! The levels were so challenging and each levels are filled with good art work. Kudos to the game designer who delivered the best in best price!

Beastie Land ist ein typischer Retro-Platformer im Pixellook im Stile der alten Marios und Sonics. Klassisch läuft man von links nach rechts, springt auf Gegner, weicht Stacheln aus und sammelt Edelsteine und Kirschen ein. Soweit alles bekannt. Der Clou kommt am Ende des Levels. Wenn man den grossen Edelstein einsackt, erscheint ein Geist, vor dem man fliehen muss und zwar zurück zum Start des Levels. Man muss also durchs soeben absolvierte Level wieder zurückrasen, bevor der Geist einen erwischt. Klingt stressig? Ist es auch. Aber es wäre ein durchaus spannender Twist. Wäre. Wenn, ja wenn da nicht einige eklatante Designprobleme drin wären. Das schlimmste ist dabei die superschwammige Steuerung. Gerade ein solcher Platformer braucht absolute Präzision. Was ich hier erlebt habe, ist aber wohl eine der schlechtesten Platformersteuerungen, die ich je erlebt habe und zwar sowohl auf Gamepad wie auch mit der Tastatur. Ständig rutscht man von einer Platform herunter oder trifft den Gegner nicht richtig. Nie hatte ich das Gefühl, die Figur wirklich unter Kontrolle zu haben. Das ist schon auf dem Weg zum Geist unglaublich nervig, aber spätestens wenn dieser dazu kommt, wird das Ganze zur totalen Tortur. Denn zu der katastrophalen Steuerung kommt noch das Problem, dass man immer im Bereich des Geistes bleiben muss. Natürlich nicht zu nahe, sonst stirbt man, aber wenn man tatsächlich mal etwas schneller ist und sich einen Vorsprung erarbeitet dann... stirbt man auch. Was zum Kuckuck? Fazit: Ja, ich habe das erste Level knapp geschafft. Das zweite Level habe ich noch kurz versucht und dann frustriert aufgegeben. Wie man einen Platformer mit solch einer Steuerung veröffentlichen kann, ist mir völlig schleierhaft. Schade um das an sich durchaus nett gestaltete Spiel und die kreative Grundidee.

If you are looking for challenges, so try to beat each level at this game for 3 stars! There are 22 levels, where you should collect all the items and then speedrun it to the start point.

Ok, so first I thought: here's yet another asset flip platformer with the little fox... But, as such, this one really surprised me. I usually don't like it when games make you go through a level (ie, left to right) just to make you backtrack the entire level to complete it (ie, right to left again). And this game does exactly that. But at least it does it in an original way: the game changes to black and white, the music sounds at 2x speed and a ghost appears who start chasing you all the way to the start, introducing timing as an additional factor (you can't go too fast or too slow if you want to stay alive). Then, the idea of cycling through different characters and changing the level design accordingly is what warrants the name of the game. Also, nicely implemented. There are, however, a couple of things that really need to be fixed for this game to really shine among its peers. If these things get fixed, the game will greatly benefit. So here goes: - Climbing stairs is actually pretty difficult. I played with a controller and the left stick movement to climb the stairs has to be extremely precise. Normally, I would expect the character to just get on the ladder by going up, whether you're on the ground or in mid air. Here, you can't do just that. I even tried with the keyboard a couple of times, and the issue was still there, so it's not the controller. I had to repeat some levels a lot of times. On one particular level, I think I died over 400 times. - When you restart a level a number of times, whether because you die or because you choose to from the menu, the music suddenly stops, and maybe if you restart again, the music comes back and starts to gradually increase in level up to the max possible level, masking all other sounds. It's pretty annoying, to be honest. - On the fox levels, the way the character interacts with the edges of platforms is not well defined. I don't know how to better describe this, but you can get the character stuck between a wall and a platform next to it if the distance between the two is just right, forcing you to restart the level. - On the squirrel levels, when you climb a ladder, the rabbit sprite is shown. I don't know if this might be due to the fact that there is no "climbing" sprite in the squirrel set, but it's pretty noticeable nonetheless. - Level difficulty is a bit all over the place. I actually found the last few levels to be the easiest, which is kind of counter-intuitive. Other than that, I really had a lot of fun playing this game and I certainly recommend it to those who like this genre. Kudos to the dev. Keep up the good work! [and please fix these issues =)]

Aqui o comentário brasileiro que vocês precisavam Cara esse jogo me decepcionou de uma forma, eu amo jogos plataformers, e quis dar uma chance, gráficos bonitos e preço justo, paguei apenas 2 reais, e cara que arrependimento nas primeiras três fases quis dropar o jogo, mas fui forte. Ele está completamente quebrado e graças a Deus decidi jogar no teclado, se fosse no controle eu quebraria ele pensando que estava com input lag, mas é natural esse jogo tem input lag no TECLADO, tem que spammar 5x o espaço para o personagem querer pular, a movimentação desse jogo é tenebrosa, você para de segurar o botão e o boneco continua andando, é terrível e os pulos é igual Bunnyhop no cs. Eu platinei esse jogo para eu ter direito de criticar sem dó, ele só meu deu raiva no começo ao fim graças aos seus bugs que deixa ele mais difícil que a série Souls. Mesmo sendo um Indie não vale seu dinheiro, ele foi totalmente feito as pressas e boa, invés de fazer igual eu, pegue seus 2 R$ e compre um miojo de tomate da turma da mônica vai valer muito mais a pena. Enfim Notas Geral:0/10 tenebroso em tudo que se propõe o máximo que salva é a PixelArt que dou um 6/10, porquê de resto nada é bom, nem mesmo a Soundtrack que é uma única música, que só muda quando você começa a ser perseguido e só.

Muy buen juego con un arte bonito y mecanicas muy bien conseguidas. El juego transmite las buenas sensaciones que me daban juegos clásicos asicos como sonic o mario. Se me hizo mas comodo jugar con mando que con teclado. La música pegadiza también es algo que destaco como muy positivo. Felicito al desarrollador que se nota que le ha puesto un esfuerzo y cariño al juego

Seems like a good game. It's glitchy. I'm only giving this a negative review because the developer has to play the game to improve the game by fixing the glitches/bugs (also by making mistakes). The little I've played is fun. The full controller support has to be looked into as well because it's not working with all XBox controllers. Thanks. I will revisit this game if the dev makes updates. There is a lot of potential to make this a top tier game.
