Lovux

Lovux is a good enough puzzle game if you don't mind some rough edges. The concept is simple: line up arrows with glass and click on the arrows to destroy every glass in that direction. Of course, this gets more complicated over time, with thicker glass, multiple arrows, turn tiles and even some perspective shenanigans. For what it is, I do think Lovux is a bit too long especially later in the game as only few new mechanics get introduced. It's often a bit convoluted to line up the arrows for the perfect solution and the lack of an intelligent undo solution makes it harder: you can only undo the latest move you make, and only directly after clicking an arrow. Moving any other parts makes the undo function inaccessible. From what I have seen, there was not even any undo available when the game launched, so it feels bad that such an incomplete function was patched in without making it work better. To add to this, the game also isn't really hard and often doesn't feel so much like a puzzle game as most levels have multiple solutions. Especially later in the game, it often felt like I was just doing random things in the bigger levels that ended up working out anyway. Still, I did enjoy most of the game and for the cheap price, you can't go wrong if you want to kill a few hours with some light brain teases.

The game felt tedious to get through. It wasn't particularly difficult to find solutions to the puzzles, they just increased in complexity. There were often multiple possible solutions, which is usually an indication of lazy level design. Usually I was just making a couple random moves to break a bunch of tiles and then eventually see a solution. The concept was interesting, but the execution was bland. Maybe with better levels or a more clear progression, this game could have captured my attention more. Not to mention, they chose to put advertisements in the steam achievements. That alone should be a big red flag.

有点像解线团：在一团乱麻中找到关键的线头，再循着线头尝试解开。问题是“线头”不好找，找到了也没有明确的思路，大多数时候要不停尝试。可能是我还没掌握相关技巧；但就我目前的体验来说，这是一个重度依赖回溯的解谜游戏 ，不如同开发者的 Quadrata。

順番の試行錯誤＆スライドパズルを混ぜたような、ステージ上のパネルを全て壊すゲーム。 序盤は順番が合っていればクリアできますが、後半はスライドパズルの要素が強いように感じました。 壊れる音が気持ちよく、それなりに考えさせられますが詰むことはなく、丁度良い難易度です。 ゲーム自体は2-3時間のボリューム、全実績解除まで目指すともう少しかかります。

I was enjoying the puzzles in this game, they had the right amount of difficulty and more content thant I was hopping for, new mechanics are simply introduced then thrown into the mix of stuff you need to asses to solves each puzzle. Sure, the interface wasn't the best, only one undo, bad level selection, but the core of each mechanic was good. Key word WAS. For the last mechanics, It went to the third dimmension, [i]à la Fez[/i], meaning the perspective is flattening and what you see is what you get. And it's bad, [b] very bad, [/b]because there is no [b]freaking [/b] logic to this, it's confusing and the control are a mess. Really whished the dev didn't went there. The would have been way better had it not been for that mechanic. 5/10 I guess.

Замечательная головоломка! Смесь Scalak, которую я перепроходил множество раз, и, одновременно, на Art of Gravity. Классная и затягивающая!

cool game
