Bor

Bor is an extremely poorly made 2D retro pixel platformer and clear ripoff of Super Mario Brothers (copyright Nintendo 1985). Gameplay is identical but also more shallow, you can double jump, however. That's the only "innovation" applied to this shovelware garbage. Controls are notably terrible, clunky, and unpolished, the one thing that any platformer must do well is smooth, great controls, and they didn't even give this half an attempt. It also looks like there's a few stock assets in here so it's likely most of the work for this "Game" (just a platformer template in node.js) was done by other, actual developers apart from Dracoders. From a technical perspective, the game doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard. A choice was made to use obsolete, decades old retro pixel "art" as a substitute for contemporary PC graphics. It's unclear if this is due to lack of budget or talent, regardless, the overall visual quality of the game is extremely low as a result. The implementation here is of such poor quality, the developer couldn't work out how to make the game display in fullscreen, it only runs in a window. There's no options to chang…

Link to my review: https://backloggd.com/u/RedBackLoggd/review/279161/ Bor doesn't offer anything game changing in the realm of platforming mechanics, but is still very enjoyable with enough content to back up its price.

Plenty of better indie platformers out there. THis is nothing special if it isn't in fact a asset flip.
