✦ AI summary
Players praise Macrotis for its beautiful art style, charming story featuring an endangered bilby, and well-designed puzzle gameplay that strikes a good difficulty balance without demanding too much time investment. The main criticisms center on repetitive puzzle design and some frustrating time-based challenges that feel at odds with the game's deliberate pacing, though most find these issues manageable rather than game-breaking.
This game looks like someone watched The Secret of N.I.M.H. high on acid and said "Yooo what if... " This is what I pictured in my mind when I read the tale of desperaux. It feels like a little mix of Oddworld and Secret of Nimh. It’s basically a poor man's Trine. I'm so proud there's a game with such an important endangered animal as the main character! Macrotis starts with a terrible, torrential downpour that ends up flooding the home of an adorable bilby family. Poor Mother Bilby is helpless to save her children as she’s swept away by the raging waters. After washing up somewhere underground, all she knows is that she has to head upwards to find her children and reunite her family. It is a little sad. But it's also a sweet and beautiful game too. The game’s story may be simple, but it’s surprisingly sweet and moving. Told through in-game dialogue and narrated stills, you really start to feel for Mother Bilby. It’s a pleasant surprise, as most platformers don’t end up giving you all the feels. As a father myself the premise really hit hard. it has a bit of an old-ish school feel to the mechanics and controls. The game starts off pretty simple , you can move left and right, …29 found this helpful
A great puzzle game with breathtaking graphics and interesting lore... Every puzzle is just the right difficulty and satisfying to solve. The game also won't eat much of your time and can be completed within a few hours but people who want more of a challenge can try completing all of the achievements and getting all the collectables. My only criticism is that despite the game not being designed for agile movement, there are still time-based puzzles. Nevertheless, it isn't something you can't get through with a few tries.1 found this helpful
Really lovely platformer game.1 found this helpful
Puzzles are repetitive and not fun.
Hard. Great choice.
Met the developers at a convention, they were very nice. So I bought their game to support the project. Unfortunately I haven't had the opportunity to give it a full play-through yet, however It makes me very happy to see the devs got as far as they did. ha bu arada as bayrakları as as bu oyunu yapanlar türk
