Spielwertung: 2/10 Wahrscheinlich eines der schlechtesten Spiele, die ich je gespielt habe. Allerdings würde ich so ein Game nicht unbedingt als "Spiel" bezeichnen. Sein wir mal ehrlich: Niemand kauft diese Games, nicht einmal für Karten. Diese 2.99€ Spiele werden doch links und rechts in jedes Bundle geschmissen, als Füllmaterial. Irgendwann landen sie so dann für "lau" in den Sammlungen und vielleicht, aus Langeweile, aus Vervollständigungszwang, spielt man sie dann mal. Dass diese Games keine Triple-AAA-Titel sind, geschenkt, aber, ehrlich, was geht in den Entwicklern vor, die so was fabrizieren? Erste Schritte? Rumprobieren? Abzocke für die schnelle Mark? Steuerung Katastrophe, Kamera Katastrophe, Design/Gegner Katastrophe, kein Vollbild, Sound lähmend, Motivation gleich 0, keinerlei Auskünfte etc. Das Spiel ist einfach hingeklatscht, sieht mehr wie Mobile aus, nur noch schlechter. Irgendwie habe ich es trotzdem versucht, bin einmal bis Level 6 und dann noch mal bis Level 8 gekommen (vorausgesetzt, da es immer nur noch oben geht, dass es nur 10 Level gibt, aber, keine Ahnung, es gibt keine Guides, kaum Einträge im Forum, nix bei Google, ehrlich, ich bin geschockt /s) Aber auch die letzte Lust stirbt bei völlig random Sprüngen, komischen Kanten und unberechenbaren Vögeln. Das ist eines dieser Games, wo man selbst die 60 Minuten bereut, die man reingesteckt hat, anstatt einfach nur die Karten im Idle zu farmen und danach das Spiel nie wieder auszugraben. Fazit: Finger weg! Das Spiel ist Müll, auch für Kinder, furchtbar und frustrierend.

bad game
The recommended operating system is Windows Vista... that alone should be a hint of the quality of game you're buying. It launches in an 800x600 window that you can't resize - no option for fullscreen either (or options for anything whatsoever). More importantly, though, the core mechanic of the game is absolutely terrible and makes this borderline unplayable. You hold the left/right arrow keys and let go to jump diagonally at various heights/distances. That's the entirety of the game. Not only is it just complete guess work as to where you will land, but it's plain not fun to interact with.
To be honest, this game isn’t too bad for something created by just one dev. But, it’s bad. You basically control a flea by holding the right and left arrows. The longer you hold it, the farther the jump. Problem is, the game isn’t fun. Controls are stiff, with mediocre level design. You’ll miss a lot of jumps and get frustrated fast. 2 lives aren’t a lot either. You can’t play on full-screen, and the game never exits properly. Even if the game was free, I’m not sure I would recommend it. At least it drops cards.
This game is an absolute mood-booster and an incredible endorphin-pumping experience! Controlling the feisty little Flea Flix is incredibly satisfying, and the dynamic gameplay is captivating from the very first second. The colorful visuals, wacky levels, and brilliant soundtrack will keep you laughing throughout the entire session. Fast and frantic action – the perfect balance between challenge and pure fun. Plenty of humor – the sheer whimsy of this game will make you laugh out loud. Great visuals – beautiful, atmospheric graphics and music that will linger in your head for a long time. If you're looking for something to lift your spirits after a hard day – buy it blind! Flea Flix proves that small is not only beautiful but can also offer a huge dose of great fun. I wholeheartedly recommend it! Ta gra to absolutny zapalnik dobrego humoru i niesamowity wyciskacz endorfin! Sterowanie małą, zadziorną pchłą Flix jest niezwykle satysfakcjonujące, a dynamiczna rozgrywka wciąga od pierwszej sekundy. Kolorowa oprawa, zakręcone poziomy i genialna ścieżka dźwiękowa sprawiają, że banan nie schodzi z twarzy przez całą sesję. Szybka i szalona akcja – idealny balans między wyzwaniem a czystą frajdą. Mnóstwo humoru – poziom zakręcenia tej gry potrafi rozbawić do łez. Super oprawa – śliczna, klimatyczna grafika i muzyka, która zostaje w głowie na długo. Jeśli szukasz czegoś, co poprawi Ci humor po ciężkim dniu – kupuj w ciemno! Pchła Flix udowadnia, że małe jest nie tylko piękne, ale i potrafi zaoferować gigantyczną porcję świetnej zabawy. Polecam z całego serca!
不咋好玩的游戏,全靠大力出奇迹,要不然根本跳不上去,没什么操作性,能不能上去全看脸,有时候口子特别小好久都跳不上去,移动起来都是一跳一跳的所以想要像素点级别的移动基本不可能,且每关除了地形和怪物的不同并没有其他本质上的区别,过了几关之后就没有玩下去的动力了,且没有一个除过关外的明确目标吸引我,所以整体给我的感觉并不好
额,游戏很蛋疼
Could you help me to get some steam points? Here I'm will do everything you request!
