Popo's Tower

Ce jeu est un rappel de toutes les raisons pour lesquelles je déteste les jeux de plate-forme. - Le tutoriel est inexistant ; va deviner tout seul ce qui est une plate-forme ou non, champion ! - Pas de continu et pas de checkpoint. - Impossible de faire pivoter la caméra librement. - Le flou des graphismes lointains fait mal aux yeux. - Les trick-jumps bien placés en milieu de tableau histoire de refaire tout le passage si tu le rates. - La gestion des doubles-sauts vs collisions a été designée avec le derche ; si jamais tu réussis le trick-jump précédent, un petit saut un peu trop nerveux et hop, on recommence tout ! - La noyade dans 3 centimètres d'eau. Bref, j'ai ragequit.

the epitome of sokpop's ingenuity. 9/10

no direction whatsoever

I would never think to take the paths I see others take in youtube videos, and I'm not good enough at platformers to try and finish this. I did however really enjoy the ninja like parkour aspects of the game. I think it'd be neat to see that in more games.

I enjoyed this

I find [b]Popo's Tower[/b] underwhelming. My initial impression was [i]very[/i] negative; I found the controls awkward, the progression path poorly telegraphed, and the art style unappealing. The first of these at least improves once you unlock the double jump, which is probably why it's usually available from the start in these sorts of games. The progression did not get much clearer, but this didn't matter so much as I got into the exploration mood. The visuals never grew on me, though. This is a short game. There's one world, just a couple of handfuls of areas, and a few abilities to unlock. There's a story, but it's also pretty basic. It's not exactly bad, but neither is it good, and I can't see a reason to recommend it.

A pretty simple game. Was enjoying it until I got to a point where I put the magic kid down, accidentally died, and then got soft-locked in an area without the kid, in which I needed the kid. I quit the game to see if that would fix it, but that's how I learned that the game doesn't save, and I was back at the beginning after 45 minutes. Hard to recommend just on that, as it seems you've got to beat it all in one go, which I assume would take two hours or more. If they added a save feature, and removed that softlock issue, I would probably recommend. But still giving a thumbs up because I like Sokpop and what they do, this was just a frustrating creative choice. Probably won't play it again, but I won't be refunding it just so I can support Sokpop
