Spark the Electric Jester 2

Spark the Electric Jester 2

*Note that this review has been done from scratch to be much more acurate and in-depth since I changed my opinions slightly, some remained the same and some did change.

This is just my opinion and the opinions are subjective, so everyone’s experience is different.

This game is far from perfect and is definitely a devisive game just like some of it’s inspirations.

But still a pretty good game to me despite it’s flaws.

Spark 2 visually looks really colorful with that Sonic vibe going for it. It reminds me a lot of Sonic Heroes’s aethetics which looked even more imaginable than ever before.

Spark the Electric Jester 2 (StEJ2) is a sequel to the first game but redesigned as a 3D Fast Paced Platformer in the style of Sonic Adventure 1/2. A pretty solid one at that although lacking a bit of polish overall.

This time you play as Fark as the central character, with his mechanics taken directly from his campaign in Spark 1, minus the wall clinging, Fark himself controls great in a 3D space using a controller and moves at a quick natural pace that allows for you to naturally react to what’s coming up ahead. He also has some new moves this time, a standard homing attack type move that’ll instantly drop weak enemies and by holding the Left Trigger he can charge up on the spot for a burst of speed dash using the Jester Dash (think spindash) as well as cancel all his vertical momentum to shoot downwards, both help with platforming and orientating yourself around the stages.

Air Bounce - The Jump ‘n’ Run Challenge

Air Bounce - The Jump ‘n’ Run Challenge

If you enjoy 3D platformers I would definitely recommend this game. It’s nice and short with a really low price point. Seems like a really good speed running game, the controls are pretty well done and you even have great control over your character in air. For only $5, this game is absolutely worth it.

When was the last time you played a game you liked very much? Enough to play it for hours without stopping?

Personally, I had an unforgettable experience with this runner I haven’t had in a long time. Every level is like a new life. Beautiful locations, awesome gameplay and a lot more in this game made my evening enjoyable.

There is no adrenaline and drive here. But there is enjoyment and tranquility here…

Beat the Moon levels. Got all the cheevos, and have put in a good 8 hours more or less on this game.

Pros - Simple controls, fun physics to experiment with, cool environment never got old, and platforming feels good for the most part. My favorite part is how there is more than one way to beat the level. Making for good replayibility if you want to try other methods. Plus leaderboards and cool level design makes me want to replay and look forward to the new levels.

Cons - Some challenges are a bit much, there’s a fine line between challenging and infuriating and this constantly walks it, and on certain levels, just dives head first into maddening territory. Jump pads sometimes require a bit too much precision, and I’ve spent most hours of this game being stuck on part and dying in cheap ways. There’s also a weird glitch where the soldier doesn’t get up if he smalls on a small platform, but the game is still in play and doesn’t consider it a failure.

TL;DR:

Pros: Cheap, short and sweet, quick restart, some levels are challenging, can cheese some levels really badly and get super fast completion (good if you are into finding alternative paths), no glitches..

Cons: Inconsistent jumps and grapples that rely on camera angles, tight timer for a few levels (still reasonable with some practices), lacks variety.

This is a cool and simple 3D platformer game which requires some timing and routing skills in order to complete all achievements.

However there is something I dislike about both of it’s core elements, jumping and grappling hook. The height (or should I say direction of momentum) of your jumps and grapples depend on your camera. Which means whenever you want to jump or shoot yourself higher, you need to look at the sky and hope you land on the next available ground.

I thought I would just casually go through the 3 levels but man was I wrong…

I restarted the first run for a bit of training and discovered that there was a ghost system ! Racing your ghost just make it impossible to quit, ran and ran again to beat myself to perfection and see how high I could go in the leader-board ! (I stopped after destroying my fingers, I’m not used to speed run)

One bad point tho : the tutorial text get away too quickly and don’t explain the orb mechanism that well, it took me some time to understand…
