Joyfess Ep1: Martin's Secret Recipe

[h1]"That won't work, that won't work, THAT WON'T WORK! " [/h1] Once again, I wish there was a [h3][b]Neutral option[/b][/h3], but since this is cute project done by a small team, I can't compare them to massive studios' titles, nor can I give it a thumbs up in case I discourage them to try again. PROS: - Cute, hand drawn animations. Don't expect Deponia, but the two artists gave their best. - Lovely setting, beautiful backgrounds. - Story is interesting enough to keep me playing, the jokes are alright, lots of references to other more famous video games. - Walking is fast, the world is easy to navigate in. OBVIOUS CONS: - It's super short (thank God I bought it when it was on Sale). - Unfinished plot, with little chance of getting a sequel (but you never know). CONS that really bugged me on a personal level and I hope the creator will take them as constructive criticism/suggestions for their next game/ chapter, because they are super talented and need to keep creating more games: - The game didn't feel good to play - it felt frustrating. Here are some of the reasons: > Please add more dialogue when we are using objects the wrong way. I got so sick of hearing "That w…

Very warm and engaging!! The game has this really nice nostalgic vibe, and the art style is cute and refreshing. Its atmosphere feels well put together, and the logic puzzles are fun and challenging without being overwhelming. Good for classic adventure game enjoyers ;))

-Pros Nice art style Good controls, entirely playable with mouse. Decent voice acting Standard point and click puzzle design, inventory based for the most part. Interesting characters Humorous story and dialog -Cons No hot-spot reveal tool, although to be fair there is very little (if any) pixel hunting. Short Not a complete story, only episode one of a planned two patter. In fairness this should be fairly obvious from the game title. Overall recommended.

[h3] Overpriced and unfinished !!! [/h3] [b] This is the first (short) chapter of an ongoing story that is no longer being developed. [/b] The humour, voice acting and graphic style are well done. This could have been a really good game if it had been concluded.

I was so interested in the game in the beginning, being a huge Monkey Island fan. This game looked so good, especially the graphics and the whole atmosphaire. I will definitely won't support it by buying the rest of the episodes though. This is the most racist game I've ever played! I can't belive that this is a 2020's game and not a 1800's! I haven't seen Natives Peoples portrayed so badly in a very very long time. Unacceptable.

Okay Monkey Island Vibes worth a punt if on sale
