 ^ //Penny's Big Breakaway// ''[demo]'' | |
 | So far I like it, but probably not enough to bother buying it. I particularly like the graphics, look both like early 3-D renders and [[Mega Drive]] sprites, really vibrant. Stage design reminds me a bit of the latest //Kirby// game. The combination of moves hasn't really gelled together for me, and though I kinda like the idea of how combat works, how you have to get overwhelmed to take a hit, it's mostly just spinning the joystick around, which always makes me feel a bit anxious, like I'm killing my controller, especially now these things are so expensive. ||

+| Another nonogame by Jupiter. The goofy wizard music and crafting-inspired puzzles don't add anything interesting, though I guess they change the flow of the game, so you're playing a variety of puzzle sizes rather than playing 5× puzzles, then 10×, etc.\\ Still, I'm sure I'll get it at some point.\\ Oh yeah, I do really like the puzzles that are themed on the wizard guy learning how to make them, so they're bad drawings. ||

+| Seems okay so far. I was interested 'cause it looked slow, you're a big heavy underwater guy plodding along. I don't like how linear it is, and how it seems... over-explained: stuff like how hidden items and things can be revealed is boring. Plus there's silly crafting stuff, too much combat, feels like the wrong combination of stuff stacked onto a maybe interesting core. ||
