After The End: The Harvest
Originally written for early access version 0.9u3 - 29May2017
Edited for version 1.4 20Jun2018
After nearly 90 hours and having seen the game to its completion, I’m finally comfortable editing in a final review.
Pros:
–- The game’s description and screenshots are very accurate for what you’re getting here: an expansive open-universe RPG with the look and feel of an old action-adventure SNES game.
— Among the biggest selling points for After the End continues to be developer interaction. Throughout the early access period and post-release, The Sworn has consistently been available to field questions and bug reports in the forums. I very much value this!

UPDATED REVIEW:
In a time of loot box gambling and unfulfilled promises many devs have been screwing over customers so it’s nice to see
an early access dev actually keep true to their promises and finish their game. This game has a couple of small issues, but what it does achieve is
so fun and refreshing that it is worth peoples attention.
I originally played through and finished the game during its 0.08 alpha.
It was prety different but i loved it! You can read my original review under this one.

Fractal Evolution
Fractal Evolution is a 2D space exploration RPG with life simulation elements inspired by Conway’s Game of Life.
You will explore a universe, fight monsters, and complete quests, with the ultimate goal of returning life to the universe in the form of single-celled creatures called Fractals. Each planet begins with just two unique fractals that breed with each other, and ultimately spawn a network of creatures competing for resources and constantly evolving. Study the evolution of these creatures and eventually gain items that allow you to engineer their genome. Every universe is unique, and runs on a non-deterministic simulation that follows two simple equations. One for physics, and the other for biology.

It’s a cute little game, but the inventory management is a real pain. The planets and their surroundings get quickly cluttered and that takes a lot of the fun out of the game. Would be nice if we could delete stuff more easily than dragging it all the way to the sun. The game doesn’t feel ready or polished, it seems to have a bunch of bugs here and there as well. Also I was hoping it would be a bit more realistic/educational but it’s really more on the same level as Little Alchemy ie. Stick + Bug = Stick bug. It took me two days to make sand, because I thought the logical route would be rocks but no, obviously I needed to make bunnies first.

Cute little game, but ran into game breaking errors.
If you try to charge batteries under a thunderstorm, it crashes your game with a FATAL ERROR message. Poop doesn’t dissolve in water, despite what it says in the journal. And there’s no keyboard option to quickly pick up a ton of items instead of clicking over and over again, which will strain your wrist. You can also lock yourself out of progression if you run out of materials or have trouble cooling down planets.
I really enjoy the game, but it definitely needs some fixes and fine-tuning.

100 hidden cups
He’s done it again! Anatoliy has put his mind to a fantasy picture and hidden cups, and they are much harder to find than your average snail or cat. Frustrating, challenging, and always entertaining, the artwork is brilliant and fantastic and the music boppy and cheerful, no matter how mad you feel trying to find those last few, though this time it’s the last 30 I can’t find instead of 2 or 3.
If you like a challenge, this one might be it, he reckons it is, and if you haven’t come across these games before, grab the series and work through them! As usual you can reset the score and there is a night mode. 10/10!

This one is a little rough. The art style slightly sucks. There are some well drawn parts but then when there is a more ambiguous area like gaseous clouds or jellyfish the lines are really rough.
On top of that cups sometimes do not really look like cups. A rectangle with a triangle for a cup does not really make a cup.
Still with all those issue it is still a fun fast play. Replay value in minimal but for the cost of the game you really cannot really go wrong.

yeah i’m getting myself into a rabbit hole aren’t i
alright. don’t buy this game. the only time i died was by softlocking by clipping into walls, you have to restart the game every time you die because trying to start a new game will cause the game to forget to spawn your character, and the answer to the question of “It is not known how far the end of these caves is, or if there is any,” is that there isn’t, because in trying to find more mechanics than “fly” and “shoot,” i discovered that the N key teleports you to the next level, and that you can mash that button for a real long time without getting anywhere.
