About Twin Stones: The Journey of Bukka
Twin Stones: The Journey of Bukka is a challenging 3D platformer, with pretty astonishing scenarios.
● The protagonists
Play as Bukka, a young naive and skilled hunter, and help Shiva, the God of Destruction, to reach his Temple. Both characters keep talking the whole journey, about the story, hints, and funny commentaries.
● Scenario
Explore the world of Samshara, a wild place where nature has taken control of everything. 3 different scenarios over the course of 5 levels, startingwith a wooded mountain, the mount Kinui, and the ancient city of Darmah, before the God’s Temple. Overcome all the challenges on your path or finding all the hidden coins. With a variety of movement interactables, such as hook, moving platforms, wall jumps, jump-ladybugs, bash jumps, bouncers, ramps, 2D zones... challenges feel fresh and exciting.
● Enemies
Fight against the ferocious enemies that you will encounter through your adventure. Each beast has its own mechanics, movement set and different difficulty levels.
● Art
Enjoy the game with the amazing views that each level offers, but also take care and look carefully around each clear zone to know exactly where you are thanks to the art from the levels, and each landmark useful for identifying andas a reference point. Our art team took care of each detail on the levels, along with the handcrafted characters.
● Music
All the music has been exclusively written for the game by 3 artists from Berklee College of Music in Valencia, and recorded by the Budapest Art Orchestra.

✦ AI summary
Players appreciate the tight controls, attractive graphics, and enjoyable platforming gameplay that can be completed in roughly an hour, with many noting it feels like a polished student project. However, common complaints include technical issues like lag and broken achievements, very short length, poor voice acting quality, rough combat mechanics, and concerns that the game appears abandoned after four years without fixes. Despite the flaws, most reviewers recommend it as a fun, bite-sized experience if you have spare time and can overlook the bugs.

short but fun platforming game. the graphics and controls were great. thanks for a great game!
Very easy and janky 3D platformer with poor voice acting. It seems to be some kind of student project. You can run through it in 30 minutes, but you're not missing out on anything if you don't want to bother with the 5GB download.
A very hesitant thumbs up. The game looks great, the controls are tight, but there is a lot of lag and broken achievements. The game has a lot of potential, but since it is 4 years old, its more likely to be abandoned than fixed.
This game was fun. If you have a little over an hour of spare time give this a shot. It is not perferct by anymeans. I've stumbled over quite a few bugs some bigger than other, but I dont want to go in depth in here. Go and play it, leave a kind review and have a nice time in this small 3D Plattformer. Devs: If you are reading this and if your are still working on this. Please Comment and I'll add everything afterwards or open a discussion.
Hah, I rarely write reviews so take this as a compliment. I see this was a student project. Well done. Back pats on the back. Plays rather smoothly, design is beautiful, can be played through in less than 1h. Combat feels a bit rough around the edges and I wasn't a huge fan of the fixed camera at that big bear guy ;) I appreciated the voice acting. Rather rare in student productions! Kudos! Solid! If you didn't get your degree with this project, I'd be surprised. Recommended!
