VAGRIENT

[b][i]Sci-Fi Action-adventure + Exploration + RPG. Help the alien fix the gate and return home.[/i][/b] Gameplay: https://youtu.be/o4CnYp5O9-U You need to explore various locations, complete tasks, kill enemies and bosses, solve puzzles and collect energy for the broken teleport. You have an inventory and a map. To get to some locations, you need to level up your character and unlock new skills (various attack and movement techniques). The game has a very nice visual style and colorful locations, but the gameplay lacks casualness. It is too difficult to hit enemies (no auto-aim), and there are too long pauses between reloading weapons/skills. [u]You can read other reviews and subscribe to our curators.

*Edit Below* I wasn't sure what to expect with this game but man was I pleasantly surprised! It's not the type of game to hold your hand so I was pretty confused as to where to go and what to do since you can pretty much go anywhere (provided you can survive long enough to explore the area) but once I realized I was playing it too safe it really became a completely different game! The gameplay revolves around solving puzzles, finding new abilities and leveling up by killing monsters. Each zone has it's own tasks to complete as well as it's own monsters. The boss fights were also a fun challenge! There's a lot of things to discover in the game and it was a ton of fun figuring things out! I still have to finish the game but I'm definitely looking forward to it! Edit: Since my first review, the Dev has added tips which show when you first discover things to help with players feeling lost. I have also finished the game and was able to check out "The Abyss" which is a zone that unlocks after beating Chapter 1. It's a timed challenge where you have 60 seconds to kill as many Omens as possible, which you'll then see on the Leaderboards! You also get access to 3 Sigils which have a few effects and can be used along side relics, so there's many potential builds! You may have noticed I said "Chapter 1" that's because the game will be recieving a free story expansion at some point in the future! Which I look forward to checking out!

My friend made this game, hes a good dude. I think there is about 6 to 8 hours of content but I can speed run it pretty quickly knowing the puzzles and mechanics. He has been really responsive to my feedback. The demo is super short and doesn't show much beyond the general combat mechanics. I would say the game world/exploration is most like Zelda: OOT and Metroid in what you can expect gameplay to feel like.

Great game. I enjoyed the exploration, and also the variety in tactics required for the enemy and boss battles. The abyss provides some nice end game content to give you something to work on after finishing the base game. Looking forward to the expansion when it drops.

Had basically no idea what to expect when jumping into this game, just picked it up on a bit of a whim and so far I'm enjoying what I've played! The artwork, sound design and overall presentation of the game is phenomenal, and you can really tell the developer had a vision that they seem to have executed on quite well. There's a bit of a learning curve, and the game is, so far, quite challenging - but I think that's exactly what you want for this sort of experience. I've beaten my first titan and I'm looking forward to getting my ass whooped by the others! If you are a patient gamer who is able to take the time to experiment a bit and like a rewarding challenge, this is definitely going to be right up your alley. Also want to make a special note that the sound design is amazing here!

Buen juego independiente. Gráficamente es sencillo, pero tiene su encanto. En cuanto a las animaciones, me gusta especialmente la de movimiento del protagonista. La jugabilidad me recuerda a títulos de antaño, como los primeros Zelda, con lo que lo considero un juego bastante entretenido. La duración del recorrido principal es de unas 7 u 8 horas en tu primera partida, sin embargo, disponemos de un reto final repetible que dejará a nuestra elección el comparar nuestra puntuación con la de otros jugadores. Recomendado.

O jogo tem uma movimentação interessante e oferece um bom desafio para o jogador. A ambientação é satisfatória, apesar de simples — gostei bastante dela. Cheguei até o primeiro chefe e também gostei bastante. Minha única crítica vai para a escolha da fonte dos textos, que dificulta um pouco a leitura. No geral, gostei bastante do jogo. Gráficos: apesar de bem simples, são satisfatórios e funcionam bem com o jogo e sua proposta. Música: praticamente inexistente, porém os sons do jogo são bons e ajudam a compor o ambiente. Jogabilidade: interessante. Funciona bem, mas eu levei um tempo para me adaptar — provavelmente um problema mais meu do que do jogo. The game has interesting movement mechanics and offers a good challenge for the player. The setting is satisfactory, although simple — I liked it quite a lot. I reached the first boss and really enjoyed it as well. My only criticism is about the choice of font for the texts, which makes reading a bit difficult. Overall, I really liked the game. Graphics: although very simple, they are satisfactory and work well with the game and its proposal. Music: practically nonexistent, but the game's sound effects are good and help build the atmosphere. Gameplay: interesting. It works well, but it took me some time to adapt — probably more of an issue on my part than the game's.

-Great Game- The game has solid combat and a good variety of enemies (most of which you can ignore and just pass by if you want) The inventory screen is a bit confusing at first, but it starts to make sense after a while. That said, I did find the overall gameplay a bit confusing. I often felt lost while exploring, not really sure where to go next. I found a few Titans to fight and most were easy enough, but a few felt more frustrating than challenging. I rarely used the dash since it costs health, which made it feel kind of pointless. I ended my test run at the slime boss that one-shots you, since it felt like the fight forces you to use a mechanic (the dash) that I hadn’t really needed before. The colored slimes also tend to trap you in tight spaces, which can get annoying. (Most of this is probably a skill issue, to be fair.) Overall, I like the game — the concept is fun, the combat feels good, and I plan to keep playing to get better. Great work on this game!

Played a bit of a demo prior to the release, after coming back, I'm still loving the gameplay loop and the nice challenge it poses compared to games with similar mechanics. The cohesive atmosphere makes an immersive experience that could lock you in for hours! Hyped to see where the game is headed!
