GIGA WRECKER

[h2]Good Idea, bad realisation[/h2] This is a puzzle platformer based on certain physical model. But the main problem is - physics is really bad here. And you will feel really annoyed and frustrated by many results of objects manipulation. This is a game where I would put neutral review. It's like 3+++/5. [b] Good:[/b] [olist] [*]Art [*]Ideas. [list] [*] The mobs that can be hurt only with certain amount of debris. [*] Physics based puzzls. [/list] [/olist] [b] Bad:[/b] [olist] [*] [b]Physics[/b] works really bad here. The objects always speed up or slow down, seems like behave differently in different rooms. Character slides from corners of platforms. Cube's weight center is too strange. [*] [b]Glitches.[/b] Objects stick to some poligons, fall through terrain. You have to restart the room. [*] [b]Save system.[/b] The game saves only during entering the room or "restart" room puzzle. There are moments when you finish the objective at last but accidently die or destroy some object and can't reach the next room. You have to restart from the scratch... [*] [b]QoL upgrades[/b] are in the skill tree. You want to place box? No - it will fly away anywhere, but the place you want. But later we will gave you the upgrade. But you still can't place it infront of you. [*] [b]UI.[/b] What can be wrong? You go to skill tree and the last skill says: "You need to unlock new Arche ability to use this skill". It turns out that you need to learn this exact "skill" to unlock skill tree further. I played 3/4 of the game without Arche or HP upgrades because of this misleading message. [*] [b]Sequences in puzzles.[/b] They are no-brainy. It looks like you have 2 ways of solving the puzzle. But in most cases they give you just 1 variant. And if you misstep - start from the very beginning. And solving them isn't satisfying. [/olist] The game feels really cheap on the whole. Like it was made by really small indi company that didn't have previouse experience with the games. But it was developed by GAME FREAK inc.... It makes it clear why Pokemon franchise is in such bad state.
