Legend of the Skyfish

[url=https://youtu.be/593y4ddiAgw]Click here for video review[/url] [u]Background[/u] First, this is a port from mobile, but its a really good port. I think PC is really better for this game than touchscreen. Story wise, you play as a girl who gets separated from her little brother when the Skyfish declares war on humanity. You are accompanied by the Moon Whale and a small fairy like fish as you make your way to battle the Skyfish and rescue your little brother. Mechanic wise, I would add “Puzzle” to the genre listing for this game. The gameplay is a mixture of adventure and light puzzle solving to get through each level without dying. [u]What I like about this game[/u] [list] [*]The puzzle element is challenging enough to get you thinking while not getting frustrating. All of the gameplay elements and obstacles are clearly identifiable and displayed. The game isn’t trying to trick you as much as it's trying to teach you about its obstacles and make you think a little about how to get around them. Overall it's very fun and satisfying when you make the “ah ha” moment and learn the mechanics of new obstacles and enemies. [*]The theme, graphics, music and the sound design (sound design being the weakest of the four) is awesome. It runs super smooth on PC and the resolution scales very nicely at 1440P. The music, although mainly one song, blends light hearted, relaxing, and adventure tones really well. It's the kind of music that fits the mood of the gameplay so well that you won’t mind (and actually appreciate) that it's the same song throughout most of your gameplay. Sound design is charming. It sounds like one person made most of the sound effects in the game with his mouth. It may sound cheap to some, but I found it funny and matched the game's overall aesthetics. [*]The gameplay is really fun. Aside from moving your character, you can perform two actions. The first is Swinging your fishing rod as a close combat attack. The second is using your hook and reel to either “jump” across obstacles or draw enemies in closer. Its really cool to see how much the developer has done with just these two moves, and it's really fun when you get good at the controls and try to complete the levels as fast as you can. [*]The story is simple but intriguing and helps build up the world you play in. This is the type of story that really suits a casual indie game. It give you that extra bit of curiosity and reason for grinding through the levels. [*]The controls are very intuitive on Keyboard/Mouse and Full controller support is a real plus. [/list] [u]What I don't like about this game[/u] [list] [*]The difficulty level is just a little low for my taste. This game is a port from mobile devices and intended more for the very casual gamer to play once. Passing the controller to/from a friend really helps the experience on PC. [*]This game would benefit from a “Speed Run” mode. When you get good at the controls it's truly cool to see your character zipping through the level. Sadly, some incentive to go through the levels at a faster pace is missing from this game. This would be an awesome addition. [*]The price is just a little bit too high for me at $7.99 [/list] [u]Conclusions[/u] I had a ton of fun playing for the first 1.5 hours. The game is a bit pricey at $7.99 on Steam; an indie game at that price point needs to give me another 8 or so hours (10 Hours total) of continued fun for me to say this is a good value. Having said that, I believe I'll get that from this game and what the game does, it does very well. I recommend this game becuase the attention to small details in this mobile to PC port pays off.

cool and casual

Un peu déçu. Le jeu avait un bon potentiel mais il manque de profondeur narrative et le gameplay et les situations sont très répétitives.

希望早点把二代端上来，一代独立的手绘画面和不错的机制性boss战让人影响深刻，利用鱼钩眩晕敌人推图或者不同平台移动都相当丝滑，作为闯关小游戏关卡数量够多，打开宝箱获取的武器和外观也有对应的附加功能来应对后续的地形陷阱，非常适合冒险解密游戏康复训练！

was a fun game i see people complain about it but for the price it is good enough. am happy i found this game.

👍

Это лучшее, во что я играл, просто великолепная игра для настоящих ценителей. Вершина геймдева, в которую обязательно должен поиграть каждый. Люди, которые по достоинству не смогли оценить данную игру, совсем не понимают, как устроен данный мир. Именно данная игра должна стоять на первом месте в жизненном пути каждого человека. Родители, карьера, любовь, ничто и рядом не стоит по сравнению с этой игрой. Игровые гиганты смотрят и завидуют над гением разработчиков, создавших ее.

Muito bom

Premièrement, je peux dire que j'ai apprécié mon expérience dans le monde de "Legend of the skyfish". L'histoire est très simple, peut-être un peu trop, mais dans ce type de jeux généralement le but est de se rendre du point A au point B. Le style visuel est très beau, j'aime bien le concept "cartoon" avec un effet de profondeur. La trame sonore est également bien faite. Il y a deux points négatifs réels selon moi, à deux niveaux différents. Premièrement, les contrôles sont un peu difficiles à maîtriser, au début tout va bien, mais dès que vous êtes amenés à devoir faire des déplacements rapides les choses se compliquent. La canne à pêche est selon moi un outil intéressant, mais qui peut frustrer les utilisateurs dus à son manque de précision, surtout pendant un combat contre un "boss". Deuxièmement, ce qui me déçoit le plus, c'est qu'il n'y a rien de caché, rien ne vaut la peine que je refasse ce jeu, la "rejouabilitée" est quasiment nulle. Les coffres sont très faciles à trouver et les nouveaux équipements n'amènent pas grand-chose d'exceptionnel. Somme toute, je donnerais un 6 sur 10 à ce jeu, car j'ai quand même apprécié les 6,5 heures que cela m'a prises pour le compléter. Par contre, le prix est un peu élevé, il aurait pu être facilement 50% moins cher.

Super godt og sjovt lille spil med ca. 3-4 timers spiltid. Alt efter hvor hurtigt du kan løse de forskellige puzzles der er i banerne, som samlet tæller 45 stk, fordelt over 3 verdner. Spillet indeholder nogle gode elementer som at bruge sin fiskestang til at angribe fjender eller linen med krog til at flytte objekter eller dig selv. Originalitet som detter er klart hoved årsagen til at jeg vil anbefale dette spil. Historien er desværre ikke noget specielt og sværhedsgraden kunne godt være højere, dette er dog en direkte port fra IOS og Android, så det er vigtigt at huske på at spillet er lavet med henblik på touch. Det er let at komme til at føle sig overlegen med controller eller mus/tastetur. Alt i alt et rigtig sødt puzzle spil med et lækkert rent design, spillet henvender sig til alle, men primært det unge publikum. Den fulde anmeldelse kan findes her: https://youtu.be/sutFyggUPIs
