illumizzle: Finding the lost light

⠀

‎

"illumizzle: Finding the lost light" is a student project from Sejong University in South Korea. It's a simple mobile app tier set of low poly/minimalist puzzle game with some visual novel bits wrapped around it. The puzzles are just simple "rotate the scene and make the lines meet" kind of simple tile puzzles... but at least with a student project at least the production value is higher than most amateur made stuff. There's no English translation for the game, but that's okay. The language of bad games is universal. This game features very lacklustre minimalist "art" for graphics instead of anything remotely contemporary. I'm sure the "developer" thought this would come across as "artistic", but it doesn't, it comes across as "really lazy" and looks bad as a result of their lack of interest in doing their job properly. Developers must try to understand that gaming is a visual medium, and gamers spend a lot of money on high end gaming rigs for a reason. And that reason is not so they can look at lazy, phoned-in half efforts like this. Not every "free" game really is. There's often MTX, or content locked behind DLC, or donations being requested, or any other number of thin…

[h1]Before I played illumizzle: Finding the lost light, I had a small pp, no friends, no gf, depression, and no life. These things havent changed, but the game is pretty good[/h1]

Fun 3D logic puzzles! You can get through the story bits easily enough without knowing any Korean.
