COSMOS

[url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/38287655-Prof.Vaharrak/]Prof.Vaharrak's Curator Group - Almost 30 years of gaming experience at your service[/url] Let me start by saying COSMOS does one thing exceptionally well: controls. Solid af. It's an action platformer where your goal is to clear every level of enemies in as little time as possible, with a big focus on vertical movement and a myriad of obstacles to navigate around. Things start of simple enough, but you'll quickly find a variety of enemies and traps you'll need to adapt to in order to achieve your next medal. For this you shoot with your mouse in any direction, and move with your usual WASD + space combo, and you can double jump, wall-run and glide by shooting downwards, and it has been one of the most oddly satisfying platformer experiences I've had in recent times. Note that, since you're using two separate control methods at a time, you better have good coordination or get them brain hemispheres working in tandem son, I appreciate games that let me develop coordination and COSMOS sure falls under that category. I don't consider myself one for speedrunning platformers, but COSMOS features such smooth controls that I didn't mind finishing a few worlds just to make sure the game felt as comfortable during later levels, which it did much to my enjoyment, and I had a hard time putting it down after grasping the feel of the game. My only real criticism is the fact the music is meh, big time. It's the weakest aspect of the game. If you're concerned about the graphics, you don't need to, they are functional and trust me, they'll grow on you. If you like platforming, shooting stuff and speedrunning, COSMOS does a good job on all three departments. Recommended!
