Slip

Slip is a basic 3D rendered 2D endless runner/platformer where you run to the right all the time to avoid a nasty purple beam. The gimmick is that you need to change between "red" and "blue" colours to negotiate some of the obstacles. Unreal is a pretty good game engine, so I'm not sure how Handsome Games managed to make this look so bad, but they did. Clumsy low poly/voxel looking graphics really bring the quality crashing down to the same low levels as the tired endless runner gameplay. Developers must learn that Minecraft succeeded despite the bad graphics, not because of them. A lot of indie developers see Minecraft's success and assume it's because it looks bad, not because it had unique and appealing game mechanics, and they try to emulate the success without understanding it. That's why reviewers are faced with so many of these terrible games with confrontingly bad graphics.

I do not recommend this game to anyone. This is about equivalent to a flash game on some game website. It's far too difficult. It takes far too long to learn a level. ESPECIALLY Boss fights. I got to the fight with steve for the first time and I played for an hour expecting to learn something that would help me beat it. I did not and I can't subject myself to this pure tilt any longer. I like the graphics and music I think it fits together with the game well. I did not like the gameplay at all. There should have been more thought put into the design of this game.

A gimmicky, generic, repetitive platformer which is a derivative and poorly executed mashup of too many ideas from other games. Frustrating games can be fine, but the checkpoints should be closer together - there's no point forcing me to replay the sections I've already worked out.

Was fun. Got boring, horrible controls at times. Not Recommended 1/10

Love the ideas! Love the music! Love the color! :D Can't go wrong for less than a dollar!

Tags: Platformer Additional Tags: Delete Local Content & Remove from library TLDR: Gimmicky, repetitive, generic, gimmick not that interesting. Audiovisually a bit disappointing. Xbox360 pad works fine. Another firmly low tier platformer with overuse of one gimimick. This one has you swap protag color with a button and jump with the other. That is all for the controls. Swapping colors changes active death traps and platforms so you will be constantly shifting to stay alive, gather coins and make progression. No foes to speak of just movement to handle. It sets ambitions too low to bring anything worth the time investment. The jumping is very elongated horizontally, and the game allows for a double jump, presumably to allow you time to swap colors between platforms, but since the game likes to cram coins and all kinds of obstacles in short sucession this does not help as much as you'd think and just ends up a bit clumsy.
