"The Legend of Karl" is an abandoned 3D rendered 2D platformer/hack'n'slash game with surprisingly okay graphics for a free game, kinda lame gameplay (2D platformers are pretty much a dead genre), sluggish controls and of course it's riddled with bugs because it's abandoned. In fact the developers never updated this since they launched it. At least they're not trying to charge money for it. Am I the only one that thinks Early Access games should have hard deadlines and if the game isn't updated or published within that timeframe they should get removed? Maybe. The graphics in this game are passable, but could be better. And while it's vital for any game to have impressive visuals (gaming is a visual medium, after all), there's more to a game than just the graphics. To be worth a gamers time, the game must match top tier visuals with top tier gameplay, and that's not happening here. Not every "free" game really is. There's often MTX, or content locked behind DLC, or donations being requested, or any other number of things that could mislead gamers, but in this case I'm glad to say this really does appear to be a fully free game. Nothing demonstrates a developers belief in themselves and their work than giving it away without any remuneration. This is a service to themselves, and the gaming industry, and should be applauded. Of course, just because something is free, doesn't necessarily mean it's valuable. Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading it? Not this time. This isn't worth downloading. While this won't cost you any money, you get what you pay for, and sometimes, that's nothing. This game will never be finished.

I wanted to give this game a good review. It looks good and it moves nicely. Different enemies and different weapons are nice change when you feel the need to switch it up. However unfortunately this game bugs out quite a bit...i encountered a bug where my character just stopped moving for no reason at all and would no longer accept any input from controller or the keyboard and mouse. Luckily i thought i had reached a save point.....however when i got back into the game it started from the beginning. This then lead to my second bug...the jump button/spacebar stopped working....all other controls worked fine but i could no longer jump. For a game thats been in early access 3 yrs id expect bugs like that to be phased out. Im going to have to not recommend this simply because of a few game breaking bugs that should have long been dealt with.
игра зависает но не плохая
Какая скука
Hello so fun and can't wait to play because: + Karl Character Unique Design + Combat ( 3 Weapons: Main Sword , Flaming Fists & Dual Guns ) + Art Style + Soundtrack + Map Design + Mana regeneration for Flaming Fists & Dual guns. + Check point or save in the game of course : - Throwing the orb ( Marbas ) was not very good to solve the puzzle ( misses most of the time > increase the radius ) - lost souls after dead ;) Final add : I think in the full game there will be skills/perks tree or leveling up depending on the souls.
Игра "The Legend of Karl" – это приятный пиксельный платформер с ностальгическим вайбом. Очаровательная ретро-графика в стиле старых консолей радует глаз, а простой, но увлекательный геймплей затягивает надолго. История Карла, вынужденного спасать свой пиксельный мир, хоть и не отличается оригинальностью, подана с юмором и легкостью. Прыжки точны, управление отзывчивое, а уровни достаточно разнообразны, чтобы не заскучать. Встречающиеся враги и ловушки заставляют проявить смекалку и ловкость. Собирание секретов и улучшений добавляет реиграбельности. Боссы, хоть и не самые сложные, требуют изучения паттернов. Несмотря на некоторую вторичность, игра ощущается очень теплой и душевной. Это отличный выбор для тех, кто ищет простое и увлекательное развлечение на пару вечеров, особенно, если вы любите ретро-игры. Определенно рекомендую для тех, кто скучает по классическим платформерам!
3つの武器となんか…光の玉みたいなのを使いつつ敵を倒して進んでいく横スクロールアクションゲーム。いわゆる2.5Dみたいな感じ。光の玉はギミックでしか使わないのでどうでも良いといえばどうでも良い。 アーリー(3年経過)ということもあるのだろうが、ボリュームは1面だけ遊べるぐらいの印象。 [h3]気になるところ[/h3] ・先行入力効きすぎ。 ・武器3つはわかりやすく表示して欲しい。 ・戦闘。 ザコ敵はノックバックがそんなないというか、こちらの攻撃種類の影響もある程度はあるにしてもスーパーアーマー気味。なのでコンボ中に反撃を食らう。そして先行入力がものすごく効くので食らうしか無い状況が生まれる。結果的に、コンボ攻撃をしづらく、なんとなく飛び込んで強攻撃のヒットアンドアウェイでやっていく感じに。せっかくのコンボが生かされていない印象。なんならボスはおとなしい。 あとは3つの攻撃方法はどっちに変えたら何になるかがわからないので、表示を工夫してほしいと思った。欲を言えば光の玉みたいなやつだけ逆入力なのも気になる。 多分これ以上は開発されないんだろうけれど、横スクロールが好きな人はプレイしてみて良いと思う。
