Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
I think some of the existing reviews are a little unfair. I did get a little frustrated at the puzzles at times, and encountered a couple of glitches that were easily overcome, but I was overall impressed. I don't think the puzzles were ambiguous or opaque enough to demand greater tutorialisation or signposting of the solution - that would defeat the point of them being puzzles. For the scope of the game as a student project, I really enjoyed being in the world, even if there wasn't much world-building or lore to actually know the whys and whats of that world. It was an interesting place to be, even without any real story. Even if the platforming was clunky by modern standards, it just meant a little bit of extra care was needed. The mechanics were interesting and interacting with them and the objects they affected was enjoyable as I worked step-by-step to solve areas. To have 5 key non basic-movement or interaction mechanics (shoot, booster, speed up time, slow down time, doppelganger) that worked well and were kept interesting and varied to use is an excellent inclusion. Run-backs after a fail state were potentially annoying, but there are shortcuts available to be opened th…2 found this helpful
It's not a bad game but it's just lacks story telling and pointing out literally what to do in puzzles. I was stuck and unfortunately not even a single youtube video showing how to pass lol. Meaning not even the devs played it. Language isn't a problem once you switch on the main menu although there's not necessarily good translation there but still understandable. The only reason I can't recommend is you will simply get stuck with no tips no story telling no nothing but other than that it's acceptable. If you are a type of person that insists on solving puzzles then go ahead and play this one for sure it's fun!1 found this helpful
It’s a pretty simple puzzle platformer and yeah, some of the puzzles can be a little frustrating, but take your time and eventually they start to make sense. Nothing amazing, just a decent little game to mess around with. It’s free, so give it a shot.
Not only are the controls, both in the menu and the prompts, always in a default language (I think French) regardless of what language setting you select, but the general optimization is pretty trash to boot, even after I went into my nvidia settings to force vsync (cause there are no graphical settings in the game itself regardless) it was still nowhere near as smooth as the trailer.
This student project was fun albeit a bit frustrating to play though as there were little instructions or tutorial or tips provided. Each section you go through has a limited time before you fail out and have to restart. Kind of had to deduce how the game wants you to progress, and the platforming is janky as well. On the positive side of things, the time manipulation mechanics are fairly intuitive and unique, plus the music and graphics are top tier!
Could be a good game but is unpolished. Frame rate is abysmal and 0 context for what's happening in the game.
