InFlux Redux

This game is baller!

Beautiful remake. I have original Influx on gog and I have finished it at least 3 times. One of the most relaxing games Ive ever played. I was slowly losing hope for this to ever come out but Im very glad it did. Thank you for this. Its my little gem of a game.

A super chill ball-rolling puzzle game, and it looks extremely pretty too!

"Why does nobody make marble runners any more?" I have occasionally mused to myself, after having spent inordinate amounts of my youth playing games like Sebastian Aaltonen's "I've Got Some Balls" and, latterly, Cyparade's "Ballance". Well, here is another, similar in spirit to those earlier titles in that you play a marble, you are running, and you have certain powers to aid your progress. Gameplay is split between a really quite beautiful and atmospheric open world map and puzzle boxes that must be solved to progress through it. "These are easy!" I thought to myself in the early puzzle boxes, only to have the game make me eat my words as I tried to wrap my brain around some of the later ones. If you like marbles, atmosphere, and sets of puzzles with pleasing difficulty curves, you'll no doubt enjoy this game. And, frankly, it's just nice that people are still making games like this. Long live the marble runner!

My favourite part is when the ball rolls around.

[b][u]TLDR :[/u][/b] decent mix of 2 genres, unfortunately does not work for me ------------------------------------------ [b][u]Blabla :[/u][/b] a nice "explore the pretty world as a rolling ball" game + a nice puzzler where you have to move objects push buttons etc but the combo of finicky puzzle + imprecise controls = big nope puzzle games are fun when "figuring out how to do it" is the key when "actually doing it" is a huge hassle, all fun is annihilated ------------------------------------------ [b][u]Personal Verdict :[/u][/b] 3/10 just can't enjoy this combo, shame outdoor exploration bits were fun, first few puzzles were fun but puzzles become real hassle to execute as you progress already had the eureka moment, let me move on
