https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lu8N0XCAsrg I had a lot of fun on Lightbender and there are a lot of puzzles ranging from very easy to very difficult. You have to get the light to change to the correct point whilst changing colours if necessary. There are also a lot of rules behind the game, as to what changes colours and what mirrors can move. In fact it’s probably wise to have a notepad with what happens to which colours and what makes it change to what colour. This can make the game a little scary. I just played the game blind and got pretty far and enjoyed what I played. I’m not the smartest of people though so I did get stuck quite often. Here are the positives and negatives: Positives : + Great audio + lots of content + really good price + Level editor + Graphics are really good with the lighting effects + Gamepad Support Negatives: - No Audio sliders - No Windowed Support - No Mouse Support - Lots of rules to colour changing which can be hard to memorise Changes: - No Audio sliders (Audio sliders have been added 20th December) I personally would recommend this to people who enjoy puzzle games and those who enjoy light and colour changing. The music really adds to the game and I often find myself nodding and tapping my foot whilst trying to find out a solution. If you are slightly leaning towards purchasing, I would go and purchase it myself as for the price you really cannot lose (much.) I would not recommend if you are not very good at mixing colours or if you dislike keeping lots of notes down about colours. I would also not recommend to people who want to use their mouse as the game has no mouse support but keyboard and gamepad. Overall, I feel for the price it is worth a purchase.
I guess it's OK if you don't really have anything better to do. Like me right now.
Solid puzzle game mechanics. A large amount of puzzles to solve, 240 not couting the tutorial or user submitted puzzles. The ability to create and share your own puzzles. The Devs for the game are extremely responsive to issues and game play suggestions. If you are looking to be an active part of a games developement, you aren't going to beat it for $3 bucks.
As a puzzle game with simple concepts, this game is not good enough to be an elaborately well-made one. This game has some really neat and cute levels, yet many rests of them are disappointed. Each pack includes 30 levels nevertheless many of them are made of same pattern. Levels seem to be randomly arranged with no order of diffculty or other purposed order. With the disorder of difficulty, player may always find a lot of "too easy" or "meaningless" levels in the end of game. Some complicate levels hold obviously useless gears for no reason, and the size of the board makes no sense for the space always be wasted, even some levels are placed in the wrong size pack. Such kinds of problems reveal the inadequacy in game puzzle design. Obviously, the game mechanic allows player seperate or combine the light with lightbend gears. But this mechanic appears to be so limilted. Player needs not consider the matter that more than two functional gears effects in the sametime for the limitation of the game. If player do this, or just put more functional gears together, the game display will be broken. This problem makes the superposition of lights with different colors following no logic. And player should carefully avoid such situation by themselves, for sometimes it could be seriously giltched, even get the whole game break down, which is very confusing. The only control is keyboard, but the indicator of cursor is really bad. Some other annoying glitches still exist, like the resolution always switch to default when you back from desktop. Player may need reset the option every time. When I got all of game complete, the achievement seems to be bugged, I may never get the game finished achievement.
I could easily describe this easily to any RuneScape gamers; It's MEP2. It is so insanely frustrating but so much fun
Оставь надежду всяк сюда входящий! Тебе никогда не получить все ачивки! А если ты получил или чит или разрабы доделали игру!
Ive spent to much time on this. Its not bad, but its far from ideal in the developed world.
A progressão de níveis não é lá muito boa. Tu resolve um nível difícil e aí vem um fácil do nada, e de repente vem um cabuloso. Sei lá que lógica eles usaram... Mas é um puzzle bem bacana pro preço (jogo baratinho). Se fosse mais caro não sei se valeria a pena, mas por 6 ou 7 pilas tá OK.
No mouse control. Mouses, mice, meese? have been common control devices for thrity years. Releasing a game that does not respond to a common contol device suggests a lack of knowledge and skill by devs. Conceptually clever but poor implementation. Unless you are still running a command line system avoid this product.
Man muss das Licht so brechen, dass es immer verschiedene Quellen aktiviert um das Level zu schaffen. Klasse Idee, gute Umsetzung. https://youtu.be/Fdr_xJt2M0g
