The Stranded Traveler

A nice idea in theory, but in practice it falls flat, movement is weird and delayed, probably by choice but even still an unfathomable feature to have in a game where movement is pretty crucial. No checkpoint is wild when you have arbitrary deaths all the time by these poles, water and whatever the ♥♥♥♥ there is on the ground and their immaculate hitbox, like is this really the best mechanic to have ? To get one shot by WATER for some ungodly reason.

Hated the movement, disliked the gameplay. Not a fan.

isto e um jogo mobile sem duvida e eu nao gosto

The game could be great, but it fails to be good. The movement is very sloppy; it doesn't feel natural, and I never felt in actual control of the character. All enemies seem empty. They all seem to have the same attack range and can easily be dodged by just standing still and alternating your attacks. The only interesting enemy, the elemental, started out more interesting but rapidly just grew boring. This game could have been great if enemies had more attack patterns, different ones too. If the movement was more swift and less sloppy. But alas, none of that exists. So because of this, I cannot recommend playing it. But I do hope that the developers can see where the game falls short and that their future projects will be more interesting.

it's a good, simple, short game, and it has potential. The music is also pretty good. It's also free, so you have no reason to not try it if you like 2D platformers. I personally played through it all and it was a great experience.

OK but just not worth it. The game is a side-scroller with bad platforming. The combat system is satisfying but very simple. The bad : the jumping mechanic is hard and not fun to control. Therefore, it ruins the platforming aspect of the game. Also, the light literally turns off for no reason with seemingly no pattern and making the room completely dark (you can't see s***). I died from either or both of these 2 things and after having to start over the same level multiple times (because of bulls*** like that), I just told myself '' it's not fun enough for me to bother and keep trying again ''. That's when I turned off the game, uninstalled it and wrote this review. The music is pretty good though!
