COSMOS (2020)

decently challenging speedrun platformer for great price 6/10 grappling hook levels can go to heck tho

A small and very simple game. Tbh, it's too simple for my taste so for me personally, it's a no. But i'll still give it a thumbs up purely because the game itself isnt of poor quality. The content that's in there is done well. So i feel that giving it a thumbs down would not do it justice. My constructive criticism would be that although the core mechanic is fun, there's not enough variety to keep it fun. So it felt stale after pretty much the first 10 levels. Don't let this discourage you from buying the game though! Just try it out for yourself. The game is pretty cheap so you'll quickly know if you've gotten the bang for your buck.

The game is really fun, especially after a few levels when you get used to the controls and how the player can move around the map. I finished the cave stage and am now on the ice stages. really enjoying the game so far, i hope the music changes up throughout the different stages though, that would help keep it feeling fresh as you play through. also, though controllers are supported, its wayy harder to use a controller, since to aim you have to use right stick but to shoot i had o use the X button so i couldn't aim and shoot at the same time. but using key board and mouse felt pretty good.

Fairly fun platformer. One of those short but sweet kinda games. It took a bit to grow on me but once it did I was having fun. The hookshot does not work though I don't get it at all? Luckily it's a small section but it just feels like trying to fight the controls on those levels. There is some interesting flow to this game that ultimately makes me enjoy the game enough. It's a fun hourish of gameplay and fairly cheap.

[h1] Super Tight Speedrun Platformer/Shooter Hybrid [/h1] This game really gets interesting if you go for the speedrun medals. If you don't wanna speedrun, this game probably gets old quickly because there is no story and every level requires you to go up a bit, kill all enemies and that's it. However if you wanna play this how it's intended then you'll have a blast finding out the fastest routes and performing them. Almost every level can be completed in under 8 seconds. I'm currently #1 of this game's overall levels leaderboard and I can say it is extremely fast-paced and really hard to get the best times and champion medals. Especially the levels with the [spoiler] grapple hook [/spoiler] made me scratch my head cause I didn't know how to do it. It was really fun to find out how to speed up my route. Game mechanics which make this game easy to learn, but hard to master: - You can run up walls with high speed - Downwards shooting gets you upward speed boost - You gotta eliminate every enemy of a level and aiming to shoot while platforming ferociously gets really intense - Accelerated movement and momentum carrying - The [spoiler] grapple hook [/spoiler] Totally recommended for …

Crisp movement, satisfying gameloop. Only negativ: I already crave more game time!
