Lumin's Path

⠀

"Lumin's Path" is a simple student project, a low poly third person platformer. It's short, the graphics aren't great, and it needs more polish. What do you do in the game? Third person platforming though this short homework assignment. Has anyone considered that it's not necessarily good for gamers if every educational instution in the world dumps their student homework assignments onto Steam? Of course not, why would they consider what's good for gamers? In terms of visuals, this features fairly low quality low poly 3D visuals which will deter a lot of gamers, understandably.

On the matter of pricing and value for gamers, most "free" games on Steam aren't really free.

Very cute and interesting platforming ideas but unfortunately controls are quite finnicky and graphics, however stilistically nice, are quite unoptimised :(

[h1]Before I played Lumin's Path, I had a small pp, no friends, no gf, depression, and no life. These things havent changed, but the game is pretty good[/h1]

Game got that ps1 vibes to it and I understand that it's a student project, but most of the achievements are broken and only 4 of them work. Oh, there are also no collectables on the third level, the counter at the top right doesn't even show. Nice lil time killer.
