"Power pals" is a cartoon style 2d horizontal version of jumping game developed and published by Ripknot.
Preface
Polite praise.
Before entering the game, I knew that the translation of this game is definitely machine translation, because the Japanese of the announcement was translated into Japanese. And as soon as you enter the game, you are more certain, such as exiting the game, which translates to resignation. But at this time I didn't know that I would waste 15 minutes of my life just because of this machine.
The first game experience
(The game experience in an abnormal state, the store upgrade was not found due to translation issues)
1. Walking slowly, the judgment is fascinating, jumping from a high place to the monster's head, often judged to be dead, I should not step on the right position.
2. There are obvious bugs, the characters can be squeezed out of the map in the middle of the two fit mobile sections. Can't die, but can't get out. Fortunately, restarting the game has returned to the initial point and will not completely cause the game to die. (So I also know that this game clearly has a z-axis (I want to know this kind of thing at all!))
3. The game experience is bad, and the 5 blood will come back. And 5 bloody flowers come back to watch the cutscenes.
4. The distance control is very limited, the jumping height is very low, and some platforms seem to be unable to jump up. (The shortest fixed board can't jump up, let alone the mobile board with the lowest distance from the ground higher than the fixed board.)
Reason
If the store is not found, I guess I will give a bad review directly. . .
The cause of all the above problems is! Because the jumping height is not upgraded! The upgrade mechanism of this game is simple and rude, and you can shop anytime and anywhere directly in the level. And why didn’t I upgrade the jump height?
Machine translation kills people!
"Use esc to enter the store" is translated as "click to escape to enter the store". I thought there was an "escape" button only after clearing the customs. . . I admit that I was stupid, and I understood it to mean that you can use currency in the store after you escape.
(And in the second level, there is a relatively normal "press exit access" and "remember to press escape to turn off your claw coins", co-authoring the first level is more wrong, why can't you translate the first level well? !)
Actual gaming experience
The game is relatively simple, because if you die, go back to the save point and start again, and you can add one blood if you save 50 coins. But it would be better not to deduct blood.
Jump height, number of jumps, and movement speed can all be upgraded through the store, and a second character can be obtained through the first level, and so on, there are a total of 5 characters. Although the characters seem to be just appearance.
The personal experience of boss battle is not good, and the experience of boss battle makes me feel that the game feels not very good. Anyway, I didn’t display the flexible feeling in the video on the store introduction page.
Game mechanics
The traditional WASD movement, space jump, attack the enemy by jumping (because the stepping is not rigorous, you can defeat the enemy no matter what angle you roll when jumping), or use the left button, use the light ball to attack the enemy, and Mario flame flower Similarly, it is obtained after eating items, and disappears after losing life (not a substitute for losing life).
The overall operation of the game is simple.
Advantage
1. Cartoon style, suitable for children to play.
2. Jump height and number of jumps can be upgraded, simple and rough. It's also interesting to keep jumping and rolling.
Disadvantage
1. Machine translation! ! ! !
2. The map is very repetitive, and a lot of the same terrain is reused.
3. The operating feel needs to be strengthened.
4. There are many competitors, and there are many horizontal jumping games. It's hard to say what's outstanding.
5. When the blood volume is dead, start over again, start over completely, and watch the opening animation again.
Summary
In general, "power pals" is a cartoon-style horizontal version of an action-adventure game with a childish picture.
But the translation quality is not good, and the game is generally interesting and polite.
It is recommended for players who like the horizontal jump gameplay.
Supplement: The game is priced at 6 yuan, which is quite cheap, and can be started as a plus one.
