This game is life changing. It potraits life and the lonely moments we face. It has changed me and my soul. The best part was the end of this game
This is a puzzle platformer with control responsiveness far too clunky for puzzle platforming. The Beggar's Ride was designed for mobile, and it really shows; if a game with good controls is "buttery" then this is like substituting applesauce for butter in your recipe. While it's probably great for a mobile game, it does not hold up at ALL on desktop.
surprisingly interesting and somewhat innovative for a platformer
This game is PROOF that Steam review are full of bots, THERE IS NO WAY this game could have a possitive rating. Let me make this clear, if i had EVER been in ANY aspect of my life as USELESS as the people who programmed this, i would remove myself from the world. As always, the worst for last. 1-While the writing is interesting, and the voice acting decent, this plot has been done a thousand times. 2- the puzzles are insultingly easy (yes, even the sun dial one), this game was clearly made (or put on Steam) with the intention of inflating the game time by putting a speedrunner acheivement, which is clocked at 1.5hrs. Im not gonna do that to myself because what little difficulty the puzzles have, is NOT in FINDING the solution, it is in EXECUTING it, and thats because..... 3- When you make a puzzle game, you can have more than one answer for a puzzle, but each answer needs to be fixed, meaning if you input the right answer, you get the right result. Not here, the unreliability of movement comes from many angles A- sometimes a rock will get stuck where it didnt use to get stuck B- sometimes, for no reason, something you need to move will move at a different speed even if moved …
Pros: -Art-style -Narrator’s voice -Thought provoking messages Cons: -Bug: On several puzzles, sometimes the “reset puzzle button was not selectable” -Bug: On the puzzle with a key orb inside a pyramid, sometimes (5 times for me) when you slide the pyramid from the second platform left to the third platform, the pyramid bumps on the edge of the second platform and launches strongly left out of the screen -Bug: On the tree of life puzzle, I could not move any of the clockworks, making it unsolvable -Controls are bad, physics is wacky -Mobile touch screen conversion to PC keyboard or controller was terrible -New puzzle mechanics appear then are mostly forgotten -Some puzzles are very unclear as to what “IS” the puzzle, what to do, where to go, what is the objective, what am I trying to accomplish? -Little/bad/no explanation of how to move the map camera, how the moon works, how the sun works -On mobile it seems you can move the sun and shoot sunlight at the same time, can’t do that on the PC -No real ending, perhaps, perhaps, perhaps . . . Ultimately I had a bad experience playing the game and stopped playing at the tree of life puzzle, found out it’s the last puzzle, then there’s …
I am 32 years old. My ex-wife and I have a daughter together, and we adopted our son together. Both are now 4 years old. When we were going through our separation, I felt lost and unhappy. I was self-destructive. One day, I was so angry with everything spiraling out of control that I punched a concrete wall in a moment of overwhelming emotion. This resulted in breaking my fifth metacarpal in my right hand—the hand I worked with, played games with, and used to carry my children to bed—the hand I desperately needed to ensure I could continue providing. Upon learning the severity of the self-inflicted damage, I became almost suicidal. Keep in mind that just a few months before this, I was the happiest man, with no history of depression or anxiety. I had never experienced anger outbursts, nor was I the type to break down and cry, but I was in a tough situation that truly prevented me from seeing the light on the other side. With nothing better to do, I looked for a game I could play WITH ONE HAND while recovering. Somehow, I stumbled upon this game and read some of the comments. I decided it was worth a try... I must admit I didn't beat the game, nor did I play as much as some of y…
