Fotonica is a very interesting take on the auto-platforming genre. You are set in motion forward in the first person perspective and utilizing a single button, determine your path towards the end, or not in endless mode. It feels very cyberpunk-y, like it could easily belong in one of those cyberpunk 2077 game cabinets as a minigame (too bad that didn't happen). And while I enjoyed my brief foray into the game, I didn't feel like there was enough there for me to want to keep playing. Maybe a more interesting progression system and unlockables could have, but then the game would have to go from being a short indy type game into something more commercial. I don't think that's what the devs wanted. I prefer the endless mode over the arcade mode, though the latter provided the most interesting visual audio experience. Give it a try if it looks interesting to you. You may even recoup most of the game's price by selling the steam trading cards you'll get as I have.
I really wanted to like this game, because the gameplay is easy/simple to get while being enjoyable for anybody, music is fine for what it is, and it looks visually nice when it's in black & white, but whenever you go into the "gold mode" for speed something about it from the distortion upon entering that speed to the bright piss yellow gold color around everything it feels like you're staring at a neon sign of a labyrinth while you're trying reading heiroglyphics underneath it. Genuinely nauseating for me, and it's been the only game in my life to do this. Never had this happen to me in Mirror's Edge, Super Cloudbuilt, Verlet Swing, Clustertruck, etc.
i really wanted to like but im not a huge fan so far :(
- 糟糕的镜头晃动且无法关闭。可能开发者本身的意图是通过晃动增加跑酷的沉浸感,结果弄巧成拙。本来几何图形就比立体动画要抽象,现在加上镜头晃动后,晃来晃去很难集中注意力,特别是进入加速状态的瞬间,还会同时切换颜色,导致根本看不清路,失去了跑酷游戏本该有的爽感。 - 模式单一,地图少。 - 手柄断联严重,甚至是无法连接。只能反复重启游戏,5次里可能可以成功连接上1次。
A minimalist game, its good.
1인칭 시점으로 진행하는 달리기 게임. 점프하고 달리면서 점수 기록하고... 뭐 그런 게임입니다. 특징으로는 속도감과 벡터 스타일 그래픽 정도고요. 못만든 게임은 아닙니다. 완성도나 플레이 메카닉스는 별다른 문제가 없습니다만, 저는 별 감흥이 없네요. 벡터 스타일 그래픽이 주는 감흥은 가시성 문제로 금방 묻히고 카메라 흔들림 강도는 어찌나 쎈지... 뭐 그렇습니다.
very cool art style when playing the game in arcade mode, the final level of endless really messed with my vision though and my dumbass couldn't pay attention to where the platforms were spawning with the way the background was generating ;-;
단순한 만큼 단순한 게임이라고 생각하면 좀 매우 많이 다침
very cool and challenging platformer with incredible soundtrack...i usually rage-quit games like these, but this one is just too cool and somehow relaxing despite its difficulty.
Simply a really cool simple and somewhat short game. The visuals are just so nice.
