Type:Rider is a surprisingly charming edutainment platformer that took me on a genuinely fascinating journey through the history of typography — I never expected to find myself captivated by the origins of Helvetica or Times New Roman, but here we are. The art design and ambient soundtrack are the real stars here, with each level beautifully evoking the era of its featured font, and the optional historical passages are a nice touch for anyone curious enough to pause and read them. That said, the controls are genuinely clunky — guiding the two-dot colon through the levels often feels like wrestling with physics rather than playing a game, and a few of the later sections had me gritting my teeth. If you go in expecting a polished platformer, you'll come away frustrated, but if you treat it as an interactive art piece with some light platforming attached, it's a short and worthwhile experience, especially on sale.
Идея сделать платформер, который еще по ходу рассказывает историю книгопечатания и шрифтов, просто отличная. Радует, что хорошую идею не испортила плохая реализация. Любители хардкорных платформеров могут пожаловаться, что игра не сложная. Ну да, так и есть. Это простое приключение на 3 часа, которое вдобавок погружает в историю.
Mükemmel bir oyun. Tarihi yapıları güzel ve estetik bir yolculukla anlatıyor. Sakin, kafa dinlemelik bir oyun.
I love the concept, but the controls are pretty unresponsive and the movement is very slow. Other problems or slightly annoying things I encountered: - in one level a pipe is supposed to suck you in, to transport you somewhere else - didn't work, dying didn't fix it, had to restart the whole level and lost my progress because of it. - leaving a level briefly to look at new information made the music turn off for some reason - clicking 'leave' led to the game asking 'leave level?' so I assumed it would make me leave the level... I was wrong, and it closed the entire game instead. - if you miss a collectible, you'll have to replay the level to the finish, you can't just hop in, collect what you missed, and hop back out
Juego corto pero muy entretenido. Los niveles son muy creativos y la cantidad de investigación hecha se nota en cada texto, da gusto leerlos. Para una tarde o dos, esta divertido. Con el desafío justo.
It's a delightful little platformer. Its concept, level design, and art direction are all unique, and each world feels distinct from the last. Nothing in the game is too long or overly challenging. You'll probably flub a jump here and there, but checkpoints are plentiful so it never feels punishing. It also isn't long enough to overstay its welcome. Short, stylish, and consistently creative - it's absolutely worth a playthrough for an afternoon.
This game is so unique and fun in the best way! Yes you're learning but it's also entertaining with a new surprise at every corner. Get it!
Le jeu n'est pas mauvais, je vais d'ailleurs sûrement le finir. La note découle de l'obligation d'avoir Facebook ou Twitter pour valider un 100%. Bouh Nul Remboursez.
Es más que todo un juego educativo. Sí estudiaste diseño gráfico tal vez te parezca un poco gracioso.
J'ai rarement joué à un jeu aussi buggé! La sauvegarde se souvient de ta collection de découvertes, mais pas du lieu où tu t'es arrêté!Ca fait reprendre le chemin au tout début. Le tutoriAl (oui, il y a aussi des traductions approximatives...Dans un jeu qui explique l'Histoire des langues),ça propose au début d'utiliser un joystick et la SOURIS? Aucun jeu ne demande de combiner ces périphériques! Ca marche aussi au clavier, mais il faut non seulement deviner quelles touches correspondent au contrôle mais il faut aussi passer le clavier en QWERTY. Pas intuitif quand le jeu s'affiche en français quand tu le lances! Il y a aussi changer le focus de fenêtre qui...Eteint la musique. Et pour changer la source audio il faut redémarrer le jeu. Franchement, j'ai été tellement soûlée de tomber sur autant de problèmes en peu de temps que j'ai même pas envie de continuer la partie.
