Aerial_Knight's Never Yield

Its a fun game. could be better. normal mode i think is way easier. should have made hard mode into normal mode. story mode has only 12 level so pretty short play. endless mode idk same same. good soundtrack. 3.5/5

This is dope man! I saw aerial knight’s instagram reel on this game and saw he was a solo black developer and had to check it out. The rhythm and timing your movements is key to success in this! Only real criticism I have is the difficulty, where normal should be easy and hard should be normal, etc. But other than that, it rocks. 🎮🤙🏾🔥

You're out here running through a neon soaked, futuristic Detroit with the police on your tail, deeply important evidence in his pocket, and absolutely zero time to explain the plot, which is fine, because I did not sign up for this game to understand anything. I signed up to press four buttons very fast to the beat of an unreasonably good soundtrack, and on that front, this game delivered spectacularly.

There are many places where game behaves differently than you expect. You will survive at spots where you should die and you will die at spots where you shouldn't die. There is glass obstacle that you will come across frequently, your camera moves past the glass, so you will assume that you have cleared the obstacle but nope, you will just die despite "clearing" the obstacle. There are just 13 levels and few bonus levels.so you can clear the levels within hour or two. Apart from how short and inconsistent game is, the navigation is horrible. Game has no settings either. The other 2 games that come with bundle are worse than this one.

This game is pretty fun, but has some serious problems. The UI popup for when you die has continue on the left and quit on the right. However, there is a mechanic in the game where you are required to press right to go through certain obstacles, in addition to having the option to hold right whenever to "sprint" and move faster. If you are holding right when you die, this input can be read on the death screen, so when you automatically press A to continue, you instead exit to the main menu and lose all of your progress. I should not have to fight the game's own UI in order to play it. In addition, the middle jump has a very wonky hurtbox. There was many times where I was defaulting to the high jump over the middle jump, despite the obstacle color coding, because I kept dying due to a very slightly mistimed middle jump. There is a lot of repetition in the environments and obstacles, even for such a short game. Not ideal. The story is also quite lightweight. I will say that the soundtrack is very good, and the movement feels satisfying when it works. Overall, pick this one up on a sale if you are interested. Otherwise, don't bother.

A short, monotonous runner that doesn’t live up to its futuristic Motor City backdrop.
