    `perfect, thank you for being a responsible reviewer and letting me know what i need to know in the first couple of minutes of the video. I'm going to leave a like and also mute this video and let it play to the end in the background so the video gets just as much of a boost regarding the CZcams algorithms. Cheers!

    Reminder that all sprite games should have the option for scanlines and similar, especially games that seek to be retro for aesthetic reasons and also remasters. If not, use Reshade although it is a little more tedious to apply to games.

      I know some reviewers who have been playing for 20 hours and haven’t beaten it. Theres a few different “layers.” After a couple runs I could get through the first one in 4 hours, but others have done 2. I’m not going to spoil anymore for you.

    • @zepwafels
      @zepwafels Před 17 dny

      Layer 1: 5-15 hours depending on how much you explore
      Layer 2: depending on how much did you explore in layer 1, it can be just a few hours to possibly 20+ hours
      Layer 3: Possibly dozens of hours, but some puzzles require very unconventional/unorthodox methods, some you will find with sheer luck, some require community effort
      Layer 4: ???

    Idk nothing about the game stands out from what is said and show from the review. I can't really believe it's a 10/10 just because it has some creative puzzle solution or a world that changes with time/progression to make playthroughs feel fresher because you did them in different orders.

    • @NoisyPixelNews
      @NoisyPixelNews  Před 24 dny +1

      I was worried for a bit that maybe I was the only one that felt like this game was a 10/10, and then I saw the other reviews agreeing with me. Normally, I don't care about what other's score a game, but when it's a 10/10 in my mind, I usually get a bit anxious. Anyway, you can play it or not, it's still a great game - Azario
