Sideway™ New York

Sideway New York is not a bad game, but you should avoid this version. What the game does have is style. The art looks like something out of 2000's Cartoon Network, and the hip-hop soundtrack fits the game like a glove. Those are the most memorable parts. I also liked the level design, making good use of the "2D platformer in a 3D world" mechanic. However, even with cool music, the few tracks repeat so often that it gets annoying. I also had the game crashing multiple times, including twice on the last level. Finally, the major flaw, the unforgivable sin, is that the game feels sluggish. Sideway [b]should be[/b] a fast-paced game, but the Steam version is arbitrarily locked at 30 FPS, no matter how good your specs are. Just look at gameplay videos to see how the game should be, then replay the video at half speed to see how this version is.

Very inetersting platformer, 3D but you live in a 2D world. This gimmick reminds me one of the lst Zeldas which had this mechanics. At times you are upside down, sideways, and you still see the 3D world like cars moving by. Very cool

ゲーマーには人生で、理由がわからない・あるいは理由なく何故かツボにハマるゲームに出会う事がある 僕の場合はこのゲームがその１つ 純然たる面白さ、悪い要素なんて何一つない いずれ注目されて名作扱いされると信じていたが完全無欠のマイナータイトル扱いで終わった おまけに今作は発売当時のPC環境に強く依存しており、今プレイしたいなら当時のPCそのものを用意しなければならない 嘘みたいな話だが、素人が調べ尽くした限り2026年現在のおよそ使われているPC環境ではどんな工夫をしても起動しない 「当たり前のように販売してるだろ。うそみたいだろ。プレイできないだぜ。それで……」

Co říct k Sideway? Je to hopsačka jak se patří. I kydž je ve 2D tak krásně využívá 3D prostoru, ve kterém je dělaná. Stylizace hry je pouliční, tagy, grafity, soundtrack (hip-hop). A to je přesně směs věcí, která děla Sideway zajímavou hrou. I obtížnost není úplně dětinská, stačí dvě rány od nepřátel a je tu zase záchytný bod. Děj hry je dán lehce a přece, zachránit přítelkyni. Jako Mario svojí princeznu :-) Verdikt: Skvělý nápad na hru, kdy 2D je 3D a naopak. 75% Pokud si chcete zkusit netradiční hopsačku a nevadí Vám hip hop, směle do toho! Hráno v roce 2012

I don't recommend this game

Good premise, but the game runs like trash. Horrible Framerate.

Sideway™ New York Pros - #1.Interesting art style #2.It reminds me of games like mario and mega man Cons - #1.I am not into action games like this that much Even to beat a mario game I would get bored after 20 mins to an hour #2.I could not get the controls to work properly but I only played for 20 minutes I would want to try the PS3 version just to see if the controls are better. The Bottom Line - I have no idea why I bought this.I guess I thought it looked unique which it is.I would buy the PS3 version only if I was you.The controls could work fine on pc but I do not care enough to find out.

Very weak platformer, you can find free ones that are much better than this.

Completely average, poopy platformer that is not worth anyone's time.
