Treasure Adventure World

Okay, I'll admit it, for the first 2 hours or so I was pretty skeptical of the people calling this a gem or a masterpiece. Combat was very basic, the platforming was kind of janky. I wasn't expecting it to be longer than like 4 hours. And then I got into it. Despite the puzzles that made me want to tear my hair out with their ridiculously precise timing, or the fast-paced platforming sections that honestly made me want to die, or the checkpoint respawns that made me say, out loud, "That so unfair." I wanted to keep playing this game. I wanted to find all the secrets and the lore. To me, this is a metroidvania done right. Lots to explore, places to backtrack, lots of secrets. But it also has fascinating world-building, interesting characters, and a story that had me riveted. I honestly teared up a little during the credits. Partly because the ending song was really good, but I really felt for the protagonist. This game has a lot of love infused in it. Turns out it's actually a remake/reworking of the free flash game Treasure Adventure Game, which kind of changed how I viewed it. Not that I played the original, but there's history behind this project. It's not just a 4-hour dime-a-dozen cutesy indie game. It's a full length game, with interesting boss designs and the best usage of a bottle I've ever seen in a video game. It's got charm, it's got substance. And yeah, it's got jank. If you get easily annoyed by having to do the same platforming section 8 times in a row because of one minuscule error at the end of the sequence, this game is probably not for you. If you hate wandering around the map for hours trying to figure out what you've missed, probably give this a pass. But if you're willing to look past its flaws, this is a really solid game that I greatly enjoyed.

The game isn't too bad if you're into mission type games. Your mission it to hunt down items in the game but its quite the chore. Beat nasty bugs and animals to get coins to purchase certain items and unlockables in the game. The great thing about this game is the traveling. What's funny is after collecting the bottle that can be used to specific actions helps you warp to certain locations. Of course I didn't find this out until later in the game which if I can remember correctly was another problem I had in the older game. I love the updated music in this game. Of course the classic's music was great as well but the new tone and sound really sounds superb. The graphics are pretty nice as well but I did feel the old game actually went well with your adventure. There was just so much that made the classic version perfect. This one has some flaws that will make people angry and that's when it locks up and crashes. I believe this is actually a Windows 10 flaw with Game Mode but not quite sure. With that being a flaw it isn't a bad game and you'll go back but it's just frustrating. The things that frustrated me obviously the bugs but the controls were super sensitive and at times made fighting enemies and even bosses a little more difficult. Another one which only bothered me cause it was such a waste of time was in the boat. Sometimes when diving you'd jump in the water and it would load to dive and then automatically he'd go back in the boat. Now the fix for that is jump at least a few times and dive again and that should fix. I think the funniest bug I ran into was with the final boss. There's objects you have to use against him and they wouldn't load on screen so you were force to die or restart the game. This of course would relate to another bug where textures wouldn't load in which eventually would lead to the game locking up and crashing. The good thing about the game is it does have an autosave but none the less its great to save your progress when ever you find it so you can turn it off and come back knowing where you started last. The look and hunt for the items in the game is what its about and I find it great and I enjoyed playing this and the classic. I do prefer the classic possibly cause it holds nostalgia but also cause the game bugs aren't there if I can remember correctly. I also believe some content was cut from this version as well. I remember there was a few parts that weren't in this one. One of the parts you had to make a jump correctly and burn some vines to collect a hidden valuable. I remember that being pretty darn difficult and could be the reason why it was cut. The other one was slightly edited if i can remember correctly. The dark hallway in the tree was different. There could also be some major differences but I can't remember everything. But what I would recommend you do is play the first game first cause it's by far the better version. Then get this one and wait awhile before you get bored as hell. I beat the old game like almost 7+ years ago so it made playing this quite fun and the nostalgia did stick. So you may wonder why I say yes to give this game a try. Honestly through the horrible bugs that happened quite a bit I kind of went on with the game and got through it. So sure there's some annoyances but I think some people will enjoy the game at least people who played the classic. For people who are new to the series its a hit or a miss to me. If you get too caught up in my thoughts on the bugs then maybe its not but if you're into mission and explore based games then I think this might be good for you. But if you don't want this one then you gotta check out the classic cause it is better as I've said plenty of times.

Buen remake de un buen videojuego freeware, pero prefiero el original en píxel art que además cargaba más rápido y las animaciones iban más fluidas.

Софтлок на первом сокровище. А так игра норм

Хорошая метроидвания. Графика приятная, музыка не напрягающая. Сюжет есть и даже не плохой. Управление простое. Сама игра не сложная, трудностей нигде не возникало. Проходится на 100% и все ачивки примерно за 20-21 часа.

sthis game, is too acscraraaaary

neat little world. Like it .

The game is (mostly) good but I can't recommend it because it crashes all the time. Roughly once an hour or so. I even had a crash upon defeating the final boss, which is the worst possible way to ruin the ending experience.

P good game, cute. Worth it.

[b]Shame it didn't sell better.[/b] The game has shortcomings, but it's a very pleasant metroidvania type platformer. It's a remake of Treasure Adventure Game with added quests, features, much better graphics and QOL improvements. While it can occasionaly be a bit clunky I never felt it was unfair. If I died fighting a boss it was because I made a mistake, not because the game failed to do what I wanted it to do. I fully recommend buying this. As for the laggy interface that people have reported: On Windows 10 it was laggy (went from 50-60fps to 12) on a subnotebook with and m7-6y75, but 60+ fps on a desktop with an Athlon 200GE. In both cases integrated graphics were used. So it doesn't really need a powerful PC to run properly.
