Franky the Bumwalker: REBORN

A nice, short game with fun characters and simple plot about strange bum-walking adventurer. A truly indie hidden gem.

Franky the Bumwalker: REBORN, benzersiz ve eğlenceli bir dünyada seyahat eden ilginç kahramanın yer aldığı bir macera oyunudur. İzometrik bakış açısı ve tuhaf karakterleri ile eğlenceli.

Franky the Bumwalker: REBORN is a somewhat of a joke game that seems to be a childish 2D adventure game where you solve simple puzzles as a character who walks around on his buttocks. Yeah, I don't understand Russians either. Anyway this is horrible translated, badly slapped together and generally, massively un-fun. On the upside, unlike most Russian games on Steam, this isn't some kind of cash grab scam or an asset flip, it seems to be a sincere and genuine attempt to make a game (although I'm not sure who the target audience is). There's enough here that it's not purely a joke game, although the premise is somewhat clickbaity. Likewise the game art, while having a badly drawn "My First Wacom Tablet" art style, doesn't seem to be ripped off anyone else and is also genuine. From a technical perspective, the game doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard. There's no options to change the resolution for the game or customise the graphics settings. There's no way for gamers to ensure this is running at the native resolution of their displays... there's no guarantee this game will look right on any PC as a result of this hamfisted design decision. There's no way for gamers to try improve the low quality graphics. The game features somewhat lazy, simplistic 2D graphics, of the type you normally expect to see in low effort Flash/browser games and mobile apps. Considering this is being evaluated as a PC game, having the graphics phoned in like this isn't going to result in a high quality, visually impressive game that PC gamers are used to seeing. The controls can't be customised, which will be an annoyance for many, but it can also render the game unplayable for differently-abled gamers. These technical defects push this game below acceptable standards for any modern PC game. The poor quality of this game is reflected in the general public reception. At the time of this review, SteamDB shows the game only ever reached a peak player count of 2. This is a pitiful enough number, and now, the only player activity occurs once or twice a month, presumably someone loading it up to see what it is then quickly uninstalling it. Considering there's over 120 million gamers on Steam, the overwhelming lack of interest in the game is remarkable, but also to be expected. Gamers just didn't take this seriously. Franky the Bumwalker: REBORN has an overly optimistic price of around $4 USD, it's not worth it given the defects and shortcomings with the product, especially considering the sheer number of completely free, much higher quality games on Steam.

Игра 'Franky the Bumwalker: REBORN' – это... весьма специфический опыт. Если вы ищете что-то, что заставит вас одновременно смеяться и испытывать чувство глубокого недоумения, то это ваш выбор. Графика нарочито простая, почти примитивная, что, вероятно, является частью юмора. Геймплей... ну, это симулятор ходьбы задом наперед, сдобренный абсурдными ситуациями и нелепыми персонажами. Сюжет, если его вообще можно так назвать, крайне странный и бессвязный, но, возможно, в этом и есть вся соль. Управление, прямо скажем, неудобное, но со временем привыкаешь. Если вы жаждете ультрареалистичной графики, отточенного геймплея и захватывающей истории, то проходите мимо. Но если вы готовы к порции треша, черного юмора и нездоровой дичи, то 'Franky the Bumwalker: REBORN' может стать неожиданным открытием. Однако будьте готовы к тому, что после игры у вас останется стойкое ощущение, что вы только что посмотрели очень странный сон. Рекомендовать сложно, но попробовать ради интереса можно.

nah.

It's a cute little adventure game. LR mode kind of sucks though. And yes, Franky is a Bumwalker because he does indeed walk on his bum!
