Silly Polly Beast

Довольно необычная игра. Нигде ещё мне не приходилось выносить толпы противников с помощью скейта. Сюжет довольно затягивающий. Интрига не покидала до последних актов. Среди персонажей есть весьма запоминающиеся. жаль что их мало и экранного времени у них немного. Единственное к чему-бы придрался - это рисованные вставки. во-первых рисовка больше напоминает скетчи, будто художник немного не дорисовал детали, Во-вторых самих вставок мало, из-за чего кажется, что у нашей героини крайне узкий эмоциональный диапазон. Ну и в третьих, когда показывают рядом рисованную и компьютерную модельки видно, что эти лица совершенно разные. Но это не портит общего впечатления от игры. Надеюсь. это не последняя работа разработчиков.

I wish I could give this a mixed review. It's not a bad game, but it's a real mixed bag. Maybe I would have liked it more in 3rd person, but not sure. I'd have enough by the end and decided to put it down. 1. The first 2 levels are actually pretty great. I enjoyed the pacing of them and the puzzles all felt pretty good. The 3rd level was painful. You go from a nice mix to so many drawn out puzzles for so long that if you put the game down halfway through the level you're lost coming back. There is so much backtracking as well. Also another major annoyance is that the actual floors are labeled B-1-2-3 but on the map they are B-G-1-2. Depending on where you live, you may prefer one or the other, but the fact they weren't the same was super annoying. 2. The targeting felt wonky. Sometimes I couldn't get it to aim at what I wanted it to aim at. Sometimes I'd throw the skateboard nowhere near where expected. If you tried to use the gun to target and throw the skateboard, if it triggered a reload it would screw you up mid fight. This might be better in 3rd person, not sure. You can't play 3rd person until you beat the game once. 3. There are somethings where they just didn't do animations. Like climbing up/down a ladder. So you might fall down a short fall and then go to climb a ladder and it triggers a black loading screen or a black screen with a very basic pink ladder. This can be kind of jarring. With what has been done in the game, it just seems odd they couldn't do this as well. Apart from that, I enjoyed the rest of the game and had a lot of fun playing it and I still think it's worth playing. The 3rd chapter could do with a rework or a better map to keep track but it was still fairly fun to play. I know the review seems pretty negative, but I feel like some of these things need to be pointed out because they can be very frustrating for some people.

整体体验高开低走的游戏，第一章很惊艳，到猪头面具怪扎堆的时候体验就很差了，玩到第四章被无意义的解谜彻底消磨了耐心，又因为一个失误踩了陷阱角被锯断了，结果自动存档不能回到踩陷阱前，最后完全不想玩了

+ Great art style with a dark story, soundtrack is great with good audio design in general. Camera perspective changes are unique compared to games I've played, plus 3rd person view is unlocked in new game+. + Unlockable cosmetics thru collectibles if you're into that + Movement is pretty smooth and responsive, I just wish there was an option to run all the time without having to press a button each time. + checkpoints are forgiving and primary ammo refills are plentiful so you don't have to stress about it. Secondary (more powerful) ammo requires more conservation/planning/purchasing. - Combat could be better, as enemies often become immune, auto dodge or perform animations that require you to wait them out. -- Chapter 4 (Orphanage) might make you want to quit the game. So much backtracking. But you might like this section if you're into survival horror key fetch gameplay.

A game where style could carry it completely. Great atmosphere, music, sfx, just all around good visual design. Story is pretty good and really delivers near the end. Combat is fun, and I like that it feels different from a lot of other 3rd person shooters, but there was something that didn't quite click for me and I ended up redoing combat sections a few times. Boss fights are fun and really play well with the mechanics. Character designs are really fun and well designed. Having a skateboard be the melee weapon, and even using it in a few fun skateboard sections, was just great as well. Hard recommend if you watch the trailer, or play the demo, and feel like you dig it. Getting your second firearm earlier, and maybe the ability to hold more than 2 weapons couldve made my complaints about the combat obsolete...since the combat is fun, just something didn't click with me and felt frustrated with it on a couple occasions.
