✦ AI summary

Mortmentum is a minimalist score-attack platformer where you swing around as a ball to defeat enemies in waves, but players find it held back by lazy visual design and frustrating balance issues. The core mechanic of momentum-based combat has potential and some find it fun as a challenge, but excessive laser spawns become overwhelming and unfair, particularly at higher combo multipliers, forcing players into repetitive defensive play rather than engaging combat. Most reviewers suggest the game needs significant balancing and visual polish before it's worth recommending.

"Mortmentum" is a simple tech demo of a game, a basic 2D minimalist "platformer" like game where you swing around with a grapple/tetherball thing to kill baddies. Survive the enemy waves and see how high your score can go. Remember in the 1980's when the only objective developers could work out for arcade games was a high score? Yeah, the industry moved on. Except for this game, I guess. 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 things that could mislead gamers, but in this case I'm glad to say this really does appear to be a fully free game. Nothing demonstrate…

I was having fun until I decided to run for the 20x combo achievement. At this point, I noticed how... "unbalanced" this game really is. When you reach about 10 or 15, the game just throws 7/8 lasers at your screen, and it does not matter what you do, you will be damaged because there are 3 entities running for your ass, and a laser triangle will spawn on the other side of the screen. Also, of course, the enemies can go past the lasers, but not you. I couldn't understand why the enemies have I-frames… And why is the damage so inconsistent? In the end, this forced me to play the most boring way possible in order to finish it.

Fun challenge, but the lasers that spawn can be spammy, chaotic and annoying. Please make them spawn less frequently.
