Phantom Jump

‎

Hardcore precision platforming with tight ass time attacks and yolos. And it's free. Any masochist should play this.

This game is very difficult - and very well put together on the whole. Each chapter has a unique theme, which introduces new gameplay elements. The controls are tight and unforgiving, but still feel great and responsive. I enjoyed almost every regular level in this game. The real issue I have with this game is the bosses. Except for the boss of the fourth chapter, all boss fights contain some level of RNG ranging from a couple of attacks to the entire difficulty of the boss being RNG dependent. It is for this reason alone it becomes tough to recommend this game. For a game which has zero tolerance for mistakes, having any level of RNG is a sin. In particular, the boss of the final chapter which not only has 3 phases each lasting almost the length of any other boss fight, but nearly every single attack from the boss is RNG-based or reliant on where the player is. Overall, I found the game enjoyable, however the few problems with RNG and bosses really took a lot away from the experience.
