L'Île Archéo

This is a charming student made game with a very relevant environmental message. The level design reminded me of PS1 era exploration and I really enjoyed the music! I appreciated there being extra secrets to find, too. I could easily see this game expanded upon, but it's nice already as is. Check it out if you enjoy playing short & simple games.

Overall it is a good little game, especially for being a free one. Visuals are cute and gameplay is pleasant. Playing it, I had a feeling it is not a product, but more like some personal project. Though, I wasn't sure, as pretty much everything shown is really well done, as if it was aspiring to be a full game for a price of 10-20 eur. Quality of it is high and doesn't feel like alpha or beta. There are no real gameplay issues, no bugs, no sound problems. It is just very short. Looking at the description now, I see yes, it is a student project! And now I'm even impressed with the quality for a student project. There are certain things that could be much better as a feedback. - The flashlight is completely useless. - The story is so much focused on ecology that it feels like preaching rather than a dialog or communication with the player. Telling it through future animals discovering human leftovers is a good idea and has attempts in funny moments like misunderstandings of purpose, but the potential is not explored and stops at being so preachy about environment. - The restoring artifacts is too simple and has no way to fail. It makes it less of an experience and more of a chore. Clean 100% of dust is just a process I have to finish. - Some smaller stones on artifacts look... no appealing. - There is also something wrong with promo video on the store page. That's it, really. None of this makes the game worse, but fixing or improving this would make the game great.

Very cute short game, with lots of secrets. I couldn't find the last one tho :\

the monkey is cool

Juego sencillo con un mensaje medioambiental y algún secreto que descubrir.

Très bon petit jeux qui apprend beaucoup de chose sur l'écologie
