Freddy Farmer

[h2] What we have [/h2] Cute-looking platforming game that's kind of a love letter to old arcade games. Quite hard and not for the faint of heart who couldn't be bothered repeating levels over and over until the trial & error finally aligns into a quality git gud performance. The goal is to finish 5 different worlds, all having 5(Normal) to 7(Hard) levels while collecting potion ingredients in a prescribed order while avoiding enemies (you can't kill them). Items spawn points & recipe order both change each time you play, but they are not totally random. [h2] What is missing [/h2] Game suffers from some QoL issues, like not being able to restart the run (with lives restored) without going to main menu first and reloading the save and then skipping the intro and then picking the world again. Level select and/or more lives available for each run would definitely improve the "friendliness" of this game, but I understand the devs wanted to create old school gaming experience even at the expense of how big the audience is going to be. [h3] Achievement Hunters beware [/h3] There are achievements you can unlock but currently they are not being counted in the Total Achievements C…

Farming is fun! :)

I only bought this game because I have a friend named Freddy. I like arcade games, puzzlers, platformers and all...but something else I enjoy are good controls. Those are severely lacking in this game. I understand the thought behind the whole "gather objects in the correct order" but it just falls flat and is not worked through. That's also the only puzzle-like ingredient in the game. That you have to navigate through the ♥♥♥♥♥♥ levels with the ♥♥♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ controls and jump over the ugly ass enemies. To be fair, the graphics aren't that bad but the game just makes me angry. The music is also extremely repetetive. Like the rest of the game. I would stay away from this. Hopefully the next Freddy-themed game is more enjoyable.

It's alright. Didn't really get into it, but I figure that's more of a me issue.

reminds me of a game at the arcade. controls are kind of hard on keyboard. Wish i had the classic arcade buttons.

Initial Reaction - The game is fun but it is hampered by its lack of QOL and forces you into an insufferable loop of replaying the same levels to minimal reward. Its simple, you play a gauntlet of levels in each zone. Your task is to collect each item in the correct order. You only have a very minimal jump to accomplish this, which you use to hurl yourself over gaps and enemies smaller than the jump. The critical issue I'm having with enjoying the game is that if you're good enough to avoid enemies but accidentally collect something in the wrong order, there is no way to start that particular level over, other than resetting the gauntlet of levels. Once you complete a potion, you never have to do that stage correctly again unless you want the bonus score for extra lives but that got really tedious fast. If you could shuffle the items you collected to be in the right order, maybe with a time penalty that would make it more fun instead of just having to reset once you screw up. I can't recommend this game to people who are looking for more fun than challenge but if you enjoy kind of unfair games, this is it. Its fun to atleast put in a couple attempts but if I were to sit and wor…
