Shantae: Risky's Revenge - Director's Cut

[h1]𝔸 𝕥𝕚𝕟𝕪 𝕘𝕖𝕞 𝕨𝕚𝕥𝕙 𝕒 𝕓𝕚𝕘 𝕡𝕖𝕣𝕤𝕠𝕟𝕒𝕝𝕚𝕥𝕪 [/h1] Hop on your boat and prepare your pirate hat, because this is about to get... magical. Enter Shantae: Risky's Revenge, an underrated gem from the 3DS era where you play as a genie called Shantae who is tasked with saving Scuttle Town from the evil pirate Risky Boots. After a series of events, the genie Shantae is sent on her way to collect three soul shards to be able to end Risky's reign and recover a stolen artifact: a lamp. Don't ask me how it makes sense, it does not. What DOES make sense, however, are the smooth movements, the platforming, the unique powers Shantae has up her sleeve, and how her unique attack is to whip enemies up using her hair, it kinda reminds me of one very classic NES game that I've recently played, but I'll not go into that. Of course, since Risky's Revenge is a run-of-the-mill platformer, you'd get new powers later in the game and have to backtrack to be able to collect, well, collectibles among other things. Shantae can eventually transform into an elephant, a monkey and a mermaid, each unique in their own way and each open up new areas to explore and new collectibles to discover. The bosses are very lackluster though, and that's the thing about Shantae: Risky's Revenge, every boss has got like a gimmick that is very easy to adapt to and overcome. Moreover, when you beat the game, a new "TRUE GENIE" mode unlocks where Shantae is now wearing rags, very canon for a female genie if I do say so myself; this game mode also unlocks most of her magic from the getgo so you're not spending a dozen hours just trying to find the magics and go straight for those speed running trophies. All in all, Shantae: Risky's Revenge get [b]9/10[/b]; its only drawback is how easy it was, even the parts that were supposed to be difficult were really a walk in the park.

Cute, sexy, funny and fun to play. Relatively short and cheap, and the first game in the series available on Steam, it's a good place to start. I enjoyed the platforming and transformations, as well as the art and comedy. It definitely convinced me to check out more of the series.

Eh, I mean it's not bad but it's also not good. Not a fan of the layered levels but also the level design is pretty meh. Hitboxes are a suggestion in this game. Some levels feel empty, almost no enemies and other levels got the worst enemy placement. I like most games I've played from Wayforward but this is not their finest work. Play Pirates Curse and/or Seven Sirens instead for a good Shantae experience. And if you already played these games and you're wondering if you'd miss out if you didn't play RR, no not really.

A primeira vez que conheci a franquia Shantae foi através de uma gameplay de boss rush do jogo Shantae: Half-Genie Hero que assisti no youtube há alguns anos atrás. No começo, fiquei um pouco resistente de comprá-lo, mas, acabei dando uma chance para a franquia e valeu a pena. Shantae: Risky's Revenge é o segundo jogo da franquia Shantae. Desenvolvido pela WayForward Technologies (os mesmos que desenvolveram o Duck Tales - Remastered, Mighty Switch Force, Spidersaurs e River City Girls) para o Nintendo Dsi em 2010, depois teve uma versão lançada para o IOS em 2011 e então para o PC em 2014 como Shantae: Risky's Revenge - Director's Cut, contendo algumas diferenças em relação ao original como: 1) Modo Mágico: Liberado após zerar o jogo pela primeira vez. Embora o consumo de magia seja reduzido pela metade, o dano é dobrado, devendo o jogador, portanto, estar mais atento, principalmente no começo do jogo. 2) Teleporte: Não há teleportes no jogo original, devendo o jogador repetir certos caminhos mais de uma vez para avançar no jogo. Com o teleporte, é possível prosseguir o jogo com mais rapidez, principalmente nos desafios de speedruns, onde há conquistas para tais. O jogo é bem elaborado e a trilha sonora muito bem ambientada no jogo. Embora as opções de animais sejam menores em relação ao primeiro jogo, o design e os desafios são bem balanceados. Um ponto que achei muito interessante no jogo é poder enfrentar a "versão maligna" da Shantae como chefe final, onde a mesma "reaparece" como chefe final no modo Friends to the end no jogo Shantae: Half Genie Hero. Em relação ao preço do jogo, é um ótimo custo-beneficio, pois além de possuir 2 modos de jogos, há vários desafios que dá para fazer como zerar o jogo em menos de 2 horas ou coletar tudo e finalizar em menos de 4 horas, dentre outros. Embora não tenha tantas horas de jogo em comparação aos outros da franquia, valeu a pena cada minuto jogado. The first time I was introduced to the Shantae franchise was through a boss rush gameplay video of *Shantae: Half-Genie Hero* that I watched on YouTube a few years ago. At first, I was a little hesitant to buy it, but I ended up giving the franchise a chance—and it was worth it. *Shantae: Risky’s Revenge* is the second game in the Shantae franchise. Developed by WayForward Technologies (the same team behind *Duck Tales - Remastered*, *Mighty Switch Force*, *Spidersaurs*, and *River City Girls*) for the Nintendo DSi in 2010, it was later released for iOS in 2011 and then for PC in 2014 as *Shantae: Risky’s Revenge - Director’s Cut, which contains some differences from the original, such as: 1) Magic Mode: Unlocked after beating the game for the first time. Although magic consumption is cut in half, damage is doubled, so the player must be more careful, especially at the beginning of the game. 2) Teleport: There are no teleports in the original game, so the player must repeat certain paths more than once to progress. With the teleport, it’s possible to proceed through the game more quickly, especially in speedrun challenges, where there are achievements for such runs. The game is well-crafted, and the soundtrack fits the game’s atmosphere perfectly. Although the selection of creatures is smaller compared to the first game, the design and challenges are well-balanced. One aspect I found particularly interesting is facing the “evil version” of Shantae as the final boss—she “reappears” as the final boss in the “Friends to the End” mode in *Shantae: Half Genie Hero*. As for the game’s price, it offers great value for the money, since in addition to having two game modes, there are several challenges you can tackle, such as beating the game in under 2 hours or collecting everything and finishing in under 4 hours, among others. Although it doesn’t offer as many hours of gameplay compared to other titles in the franchise, every minute played was worth it.

Quick and fun metroidvania. Simple plot. Great pixel art. 9/10

First time ever playing any of the Shantae games and i can say I really love this game i went and bought the rest of them I can't wait to play the others and of course finish this game

A cool oriental-themed platformer with a gorgeous heroine in the title role. Pixel art, good plot, great music, all this will last for several evenings. Sometimes it's not clear where to go, but then, having figured it out, the game runs on the same wavelength.

QUE TETORRAS LAS DE LA RISKY, ME CORROOOOOOOO AAAAAAGHHHHHHHHH JSKJSKJK ahora si empieza la reseña iba con bajas espectativas y no termine decepcionado xd , el juego es entretenido aunque hay cosas muy desaprovechadas , como las plataformas de salto dimensional ( o de salto de plano )que te ayudan a cambiar de capas o plano de profundidad, solo se usan en dos areas, para moverse por la aldea y para moverse por el bosque, cuando las vi esperaba que se usaran en mas areas como la final o el desierto . la manera de transformarse en algo mas que el mono es algo lenta por que tienes que apretar mantenido el boton de baile y ahi esperar a que shantae haga alguna de las otras dos poses de baile, pero fuera de eso las transformaciones son buenas aun mas cuando se consiguen sus segunas habilidades mis favoritas siendo la de mono que con su habilidad puedes saltearte algunos tramos en las secciones de plataformas, y la forma de elefante (sobre todo por que estas dos son las que mas se usan en el juego ). almenos son concientes de que el juego es corto por que tiene mas de un logro por completa el juego rapido . en general es un buen juego para empezar en la franquicia shantae si son ajenos a estos juegos ysi en caso de que no saben ingles les recomiendo instalar un mod el cual permite instalar la traduccion del español y no es dificil de instalar. les dejo el link de la guia del mod: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2634875526 recomendadisimo este juego
