Belle Boomerang

There is a lot wrong here. I don't know why some of these retro inspired games want to keep crummy outdated controls. The level designs are not all that inspired. The extra abilities aren't very fun. This was a total miss for me.

Fun little game. I just wish the ending of the game wasn't such a stark difficulty contrast. For some reason I struggled a lot to finish the final boss and second to last level on first completion, but it felt fine on subsequent playing. Plays more like a puzzle platformer and that's pretty cool :3

This was a very pleasant surprise! It's a old school platformer with charming graphic that emind me alot or kirby adventure. that said, your character moveset is more greared toward platforming than offense, and all the stage are really well design, keeping this in mind, without feeling cheap or repetitive. The boss battles are another highlight, providing interesting challenge and have a gereat flow/setpiece pace. And the whole dynamic of having all stage play out like, well, an actual stage, complete with chat with the ennemies/actors in between, gives the whole adventure a very pleasant vibe. The music also fits the NES era damn well, all while being pleasant to the ears. The game challenge is high but never unfair even at the 'retro' harder difficulty level, which was more than welcome. This is not a cheap nostalgia bait, this is professional work and the real deal. If you remotely love platformers, this one is a winner! ^^

muito bom, fez eu quebra o pc 3 vezes, porém, ainda sim é bom

I felt frustrated at least once per level up to the point I reached some ice level where I just quit outright. You walk so damn slow and jumps give a lot of height but don't cover a lot of ground so movement is really clunky. As a result, any time you die and get sent back to the last checkpoint it takes forever to get back to where you died. This is a reasonably common problem in games and it makes me so mad. Even if you technically start playing again nearly instantly, since you have to get back to the challenging moment that killed you, you have to slog through trivial stuff you've already beaten. Going back to the ice level, it isn't particularly hard, but you get jumped scared by new mechanics like 10 times in that one level and if I die to each one once, then I'm stuck crawling through the first stretch of the level 10 times. Not really sure who this game is for. The movement isn't fun or flashy and the combat is 99% using a boomerang with a range so small (even after 1 upgrade) that it may as well be a melee weapon. It's cute but that's all it has going for it.

"모르면 죽어!"는 그다지 좋은 게임 설계가 아닌 것 같습니다.

Got this for free from a giveaway on narwhalnut's bluesky. It's a nice lil' 2D platformer, has collectables as an incentive to redo levels, if you're unsure on whether you're feeling it or not I'd give it up to the waterfall level. There's tricky platforming challenges from there onwards but nothing unfair. The pixel art is pretty and you can fullscreen the game on PC. Its also available on Switch I think? If you're wanting some 8bit gameboy nostalgia. Dunno about the Switch2 as I'm unfamiliar with that newer console. Plot is a simple 'stop the bad guy' which works for the genre the game is referencing. (Retro 2D games) If like me you can't initially understand what key does which and mash them going aaaa when opening the game figure out which key is the down button, go to options and change your keybindings to whatever makes sense for you.
