Speakerman

Speakerman is part of a platforming subgenre that mainly focuses on exploration and ambient atmosphere; we tend to see a lot of those weird games in RPG-Maker, while 2D platformers are a bit less common. Other examples of this format include games like [i] Zzzz-Zzzz-Zzzz [/i], [i] Deios II [/i], [i] Dreaming Sarah [/i] and [i] Mirage of Dragon[/i] (one of my favorite types of games to play). If you enjoy games where you constantly look for hidden paths, invisible platforms, and philosophical narrative, I think you will like this one as well. There are a few downsides, such as lacking controller support and having abilities mapped to strange buttons like 'enter'. There are 2 modes to choose from, I am not 100% sure what the difference is, but they seem to have a different level layout. The 'open world' mode seems to be focused on finding coins that are required to progress to new areas, or just exploring the game in general with no real challenge. I know this type of game is not for everyone, I expect people to get confused by navigation, but in this subgenre the whole point is to look around. Even though the gameplay is extremely basic, it's just so fun to find new areas that are hidden in the most obscure places, and it has a nice sense of humor.

If you liked You Have to Win the Game or Alwa’s Awakening any other C64/ZX Spectrum/DOS retro or retro-style flip-screen platformers, you’ll enjoy this game as well.

I LOVE this game. I had a blast. Unfortunately I'm stuck at certain spots in both worlds. (Hence why my game time is lower). I really wish there was some sort of guide cause I'd love to complete this game and see the rest of what I'm missing out on. This game has become one of my favourites now. I had a lot of fun.

This is a fun little game to explore with amazing music. I highly recommend doing Story Mode first, and then exploring Open World Mode. Hint: The story has a secret ending.

From the very start this game demands you make incredibly precise and difficult jumps. It is also quite slow and clunky. And by slow I mean it wastes so much time. Those earlier boring jumps? You'll miss often and have to take time getting back to where you were. You also need to interact NPCs to progress at many points but they either speak incredibly slowly with no way for the player to advance dialogue on their own or they move so slowly to get to where they need to go to help you. They waste soooo much time. And to top this boring package off nicely, there's a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ triggered joke in this. I'll happily refund this one and insist that you just stay away from it too. It'll just waste your time that you could be putting into doing all kinds of other fun things.

Hatte ein Jump 'n' Run wie Monty on the Run vom C64 erwartet. Geboten wurde mir eine Tastatursteuerung (nur Pfeiltasten), ein Intro-Song und eine im Spiel blubbernde Geräuschkulisse, wie an einem Dorfbahnhof. Beide Spielmodi hatte ich ausprobiert und keiner konnte mich überzeugen. Retro hin oder her, in den 80ern gab es bessere Titel mit einem Soundtrack, Joystick bzw. Gamepadsteuerung.

When I first saw the game called Goody by Opera software (we had it translated to Russian and for some reason its name was actually translated as "City") back in 1990s, I thought it would be cool to have the game where you just explore huge city using different ways and interconnections (and, of course, ladder!). This game captures exactly that - the urban atmosphere of Goody's town with its' challenges, precise jumps and exploration. Big thanks to the dev! Recommended (especially for fans of 8088' CGA nostalgia).

Está bastante bien, me recuerda al Goody ^_^
