Trigo

For 37 pennies, I got 3 hours and 18 minutes of mixed enjoyment & frustration and another 100% complete game. I'll call that a win.

Has the potential to be good but a lot of strange choices by the developer limits it in feeling as satisfying as other precision platformers. All of the platforms are triangular instead of blocks and this can lead to you slipping off of them or pushed around very easily. Visually, it looks great, but it can end up slowing you down or outright ending the run. Just feels sloppier compared to blocks. Requiring you to unlock a better jump is also not a great choice. You start off with a very small one and it doesnt feel great falling short of a lot of platforms in the early stages. Needing to go back with better abilities is not a great way to play these kinds of games. I like finishing them as I go, being all about learning shortcuts, not unlocking better moves. The freeze time ability you get in the start is one of the worse choices. Because it also slows down the timer. So when you're trying to lower your time, instead of using it just as a platform ability you need to mash it anytime its cooldown is finished. This just feels awkward. The Leader boards don't show enough. They don't show any times around you, there's no medals to earn. If you're not in the top 3 in the world you g…

I forgot I had it in my library lol

This game is brutally difficult, but it has solid gameplay and a good amount of content for the price.

secret 5 is stupid.

Beat only up to unlocking the jump 2 (a higher jump) and about 5 levels, did not like it much. My issues is as follows: First, the leaderboards, they end up being unmotivating, to give an example. I had to run a straight line, 3 seconds, of course that is the normal time, what did the leaderboards show? The first five times alongside mine (I think it was in the 30s), the thing is, those times are 0.6 seconds the first and 1.3 the others. I don't know if they used a bug or cheated (probably the former), but you can't see a repetition to understand how that supposedly works, so there you are with a time so far below what is needed to be at the top and zero clue on what to do. This is exactly what will happen on all levels. The easy way to fix this (in my opinion) would be to either show first the players around you (so if Im 25, show from 28 to 22) and then allow you to see best times, the fact that you can't even see the times around you is a weird decision. Also the replay thing, at least for top time of each level would be cool to get rid of the suspicion that there might be cheating. Also minor inconvenience was that the game did not show me my time at the end of a level when p…
