Permute

"Rotate and navigate a colorful world" seems quite a short description for a game, so we'll stick with that. The whole Steam store page does not mention anything more, not even the controls or what the game is about, apart from a brief reference to a "platformer". If one is interested in this game's 10 achievements he will get them within 2 hours in my opinion, but depending on your skills you'll probably be able to get them even within 1 hour - you have just to complete all the levels which, as you may have understood so far, are.. yeah, well, just 10. The soundtrack is some random ambient track, while the options are just linked to a small scale that lets us lower or raise the mouse sensitivity. The WASD keys will be used to move and shift, to run. Non remappable and I don't even know if it supports gamepads or not - keyboard reviews here most of the times =P Why the mouse sensitivity then? Well, the game is a 3D platformer in which we will see only in front of us, thus it will be extremely important to focus on where to jump and when. Let's not talk that much about the fact that we aren't told that the space key is used to jump.. Well, the game isn't that hard - once you get used to the mouse sensitivity and the shift key to run and make longer jumps you'll get through the whole game within, as I said, 2 hours or less. And it costs 2€. Plus, it's a standard 3D platformer without literally anything to add if compared to tons of similar games. The usual first person perspective, jumps on a colorful block world and little else. And for weird reasons, pink blocks will transform once you hit the spacebar.. don't ask me why. All in all it's a somehow acceptable approach to an indie 3D platformer, but it really adds nothing to the user's experience and it consists of a few levels all looking the same. And this is my 600th review I think.

[i][b]Еще одна игруля из разряда уничтожителя вашего пробела, не впечатлило.[/b][/i]

윈도우 10 운영 체제에서 게임 실행이 안 된다. 나는 정보를 찾기 위해 포럼을 뒤졌다. [i]"아, 그거 관리자 권한으로 실행하면 됨."[/i] 확인해보니 진짜 되더라. 허나 곧 다른 난관에 봉착하고 말았다. 이렇게 하니까 도전과제가 인식이 안 되는 것이다. 그리고 나는 간단한 해결법을 찾고야 말았다. 운영 체제가 달라서 실행에 문제를 겪는다면, 이전 버전으로 호환 실행하면 되잖아? EXE 파일 속성에서 '윈도우 7'으로 호환 구동 선택. 그리고 스팀에서 다시 게임 실행. 그 결과는··· 짜자잔, 매우 깔끔하게 실행되고, 동시에 도전과제도 잘 따진다. 이 부분이 아주 쪼-금 귀찮긴 하지만, 그래도 도전과제 올클리어 자체는 하품 나올 정도로 쉽기에 따봉을 갈겨 본다.

EDITED (See bottom) Permute is a wonderful idea. I saw it on Greenlight last week and saw that it just came out. I was excited to see what it was all about. However. It needs a lot of work still. There are no menus, no adjusting anything, nor being able to exit the game naturally (as fas as I could find). There are some blocks that are just too far away. It may just be me, or my inability to play, but I feel like several of the blocks are unreachable. Which is hard, considering the only way to beat the level is to cross to them. I want to like this game, I really do, which is why I am recomending this game. But I believe a few things need to be changed. I may be wrong and I am totally willing to accept it. EDIT: Shift lets you run which can help make larger gaps, but it is still very difficult with the cursor showing on screen and the high sensitivity. Thanks for reading.

Permute is more a fust Jump & run game. It makes fun. I recomment it for everyone. sound is alright. price is alright. all achievements work.

This game saved my life. I am 43. My ex-wife and I have a daughter together, and adopted our son together. They are now both 4 years old. When we were going through our separation, I found myself lost and miserable. I was self destructive. I got so mad one day from everything spiralling out of my control that I punched some concrete in a moment of overwhelming emotion. That caused me to break my 5th metacarpal in my right hand... my working hand... my games hand.. the hand that I held and carried my children to bed with.. The hand I desperately needed to make sure I could continue to provide. After learning of the severity of my self-inflicted damage, I was borderline suicidal. Keep in mind that just a few months before this, I was the happiest man with no history of depression or anxiety. I have never had fits of rage, or been one to break down and cry, but I was in a low spot that just really buried me from being able to see the light on the other side. Having nothing better to do, I searched for a game I could play, ONE HANDED while I recovered. I somehow stumbled upon this game and read some of the reviews. I decided that it had to be worth a shot... I must admit, I didn't beat the game, or play nearly as long as some of you. In fact, I may have only played this game a day or two.. With that being said, after doing so, I had a new found joy and hope for life. I was able to put behind me the pain and suffering that had been cast over me. I was able to experience other peoples joy and happiness. I was able to see the fruits of my "labor". I relaxed for 5 ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ minutes to this music long enough to realize that I was going to be okay. After coming to that realization, I turned the game off, and I went back to work. It hurt my hand like hell but I was motivated. I stopped feeling so damn sorry for myself, and I became the father I needed to be in that moment, not the weak boy I was behaving as. Today, I am close friend with my kids mother. We don't fight, or argue, or say hurtful things to each other. We are parents, and friends. I now have 3 kids. My third child is, wait for it, ALSO 4 YEARS OLD. The woman I am with was going through a very similar situation at the time of my own separation, and we just stumbled in to each others life unexpectedly. We have been in a relationship for a year now, and are very happy together. Moral of the story, you never know what life holds in store for you, and if I would have given up when all the odds were stacked against me, I wouldn't be where I am today. This silly little game helped me realize that. Thank you.

Joke positive reviews

Recommended for achievement hunters as it's cheap (especially when in a bundle) and you can 100% it in under 20 minutes. Otherwise, skip it.
