Eclipsed

for future potential buyers - the dev isnt working on this game anymore, he's moving onto a new project. maybe he comes back to this, or not. just worth mentioning

This is an abandoned EA puzzle platformer. The twist here is that you can only jump where there is light, and the light moves around sometimes or needs a lever to be pulled. Beat the timing/skill jumps to get to the end of the level and go to the next one. While retro pixel platformers are often very lazy (pixel art is used to avoid hiring an artist, platformer gameplay is chosen because it's simple... basically a quick lazy Steam cash grab), here we see the extreme. The dev didn't bother even adding colour (ITS ART!!!!) So you have poor graphics, fixed resolution, capped to 30fps, all the things gamers hate. Surely the gameplay will save it! Nope! Unimaginable levels with very lame platformer mechanics, janky controls and unfixed bugs makes me question why this is even permitted on Steam at all. So, abandoned EA... don't touch this. Thumbs down.

Unique game with good puzzle, as the level continue the story continue! As i play this game i am getting hook into the story of this game, making me curious of what will happen as this game goes on. Basically enjoying the game and story. Hoping for more updates on the game!

I'm going through my steam libray playing the indie games! Link to my full review :) http://indiesandthings.com/2018/05/23/eclipsed-the-tale-of-two-lovers-in-a-dark-and-ever-changing-world/ Eclipsed is an Adventure platform game that has a pretty awesome art style. The game takes place in a dark dark world that has these lamp post thingies which provide some light. If your platform doesn't have light around it you'll fall to your death and have to restart the level. You play as a boy who is looking for love and meets a girl who is perfect for this boy in basically every single way. You can change between these characters freely to help you get through the puzzles but if either one of the characters dies you have to restart the level which can be very frustrating at times. A few things that I wish could of been added or tweaked would have been the AI, the music, and the story. All of them were okay but could of been greatly improved by a few things. The AI in this game is really stupid. The girl got me killed so so so so so many times it was frustrating, I would nearly be at the end of the level and she would get stuck and drown or kill herself on a bush and cause me to start al…

After 5 years in early access.... I'm going to go with a no on this one.

Very fun and challenging game, I got frustrated through a few levels, but thats what makes these types of games fun. Would recommend it to those Super Meatboy gamers who are looking for a bit of fun as well.
