Ethan Meteor Hunter begins as a deceptively easy puzzle-plaformer but the flaws become apparent as it drags on and on. It fails at both aspects of its gameplay: as a puzzle game, there are not enough puzzles (what it's there is decent except those that require twich reaction solutions and get unintuitive after a while), as a platformer, it is repetitive and unfair tier-hard. I rarely quit games, but this one I just dropped about halfway through the third area, seeking out endeavors that respect my time and don't overstay their welcome.
not really my thing but a good platformer story doesnt matter but ya good platforming fun if you like that
Absolutely understand why this one is mixed review wise, it's so unforgiving, so unfriendly and it just doesn't handle well enough for this level of platforming precision it demands. It crosses the boundary from challenging to just unfair. Even the first level, it requires perfect timing, jumps and powers to get under 40 seconds (so you can complete the level fully) I'm really surprised by the amount of positive reviews on this one, are they actually fully completing levels and think this game is reasonable?
11 Years Ago in the Greenlight Era it wasnt a bad game, but 2025 its sadly not a good game either. Some Kind of What if Mobile Games, wouldnt had exist but been released for PC.
Lot's of fun, highly recommend. I was almost done winning the game by the time I realized there was an option in the settings to adjust sensitivity. I found lining up the puzzle elements a bit tedious and sometimes used my mouse pointer to help line things up. So, my advice would be to adjust the sensitivity to your liking in the beginning. It's a very polished game overall, no bugs or glitches, works great with my Xbox One controller.
THIS GAME IS AMAZING! I can't stop appreciating the effort that was put into it. It is sad how little attention the game has received. I love that the game has a clear structure, that game elements are so interactive with each other, which gives a lot of possibilities for puzzles. I love 3 distinct Worlds with unique features and styles. I love gimmicky levels like Pogo and The Vessel. The game design is so genius; the level progression, how the puzzles are made, and even speedruning is taken care of by making player-controlled cycles. The game is also very replayable. The songs are masterpieces.
