Malfunction II

Malfunction II

I got this game for free as I’ve helped do a bit of feedback on the developers prior games.

Malfunction 2 is a sequel to the game Malfunction. The original game was in 2D, but this one is in 3D with a fixed camera angle. When you start the game you are given a small summary of what happened in the last game to catch you up to speed, which does it’s job pretty well.

The game itself is kinda like a point and click with its objectives and simple puzzles, but also has some combat in it, along with a boss to provide some variety. The majority of the puzzles really didn’t give me too much trouble, but as the game is not yet fully completed an easier start isn’t bad. There is a good amount of things your character can do, as they change into diffrent forms and other characters to progress through the levels.

Supraland Six Inches Under

Supraland Six Inches Under

Gameplay

In Supraland Six Inches Under is a First-Person-Metroidvania. That means, you’re in a gated world and the more abilities you gather, the more parts of the world you can access.

  • The gameplay consists of roughly 55% exploration, 35% solving puzzles and 10% combat.

  • The adventure will take between 8-20 hours.

  • Hundreds of gags

  • 2 funny gags

  • Has absolutely zero skilltrees

Compared to the first Supraland game:

  • The puzzles are simpler in the main path; hard puzzles are mostly optional

  • Exploration is the biggest part of the game

  • There is less combat

  • Much more optional content, a lot of it only accessible after the credits

The story behind the game

“Six Inches Under” was a little sideproject that was established to introduce new dev team members to our tools and workflow. Essentially it’s our preparation for the sequel to Supraland.

While David made the first game pretty much alone, he had a much smaller role in this one - mostly supervising and building two small areas.

It was supposed to be a little DLC for Supraland , but for some reason it got a bit out of hand and got more and more ambitous. Instead of 3 months it took us 2 years to make this.

It can be considered “Supraland 1.5” because there are still a lot things from the first game, but at the same time it’s an entire new world with a bunch of new mechanics.

Combat

If you’re a fan of the first Supraland you might be interested in the approach to combat in this new game. After having learned a lot of lessons the core concept was changed a lot and can still be considered experimental. The enemies are now much more separated from puzzles and won’t get in your way there. The all new enemy types behave much more different from each other and there is no more one-fits-all solution to them. Hope you like it!

I loved the visuals, for a puzzle game, there sure was a lot! (over 30 levels!)

I’m not proud to say that I was stuck in the flower one, though. That one was pretty difficult to understand.

Figment 2: Creed Valley - Prologue

Figment 2: Creed Valley - Prologue

i wish i could give this a positive review, i truly do, but i simply cannot because of the black hog fight (the i think last one, the on that stage), it is so buggy, unfair, and simply frustrating. even without all those bugs it would be extremely frustrating, but i do look forward to the full game where i’m sure this will be fixed.

Edit: i managed to do it eventually, and it seems they fixed it so i changed my review, also btw theres a bug before, during, and after the fight with the dialogue where that bird (forgot her name) keeps repeating her “watch out dusty!” line, even after the fight and before even going on the stage.

The timer is stressful and loud, The music on the color fluid socket in the challenge is broken, and It seems like the first game in almost every way except Dusty isn’t a jerk who relies on photography to compensate for his lack of self-fulfillment, we have no lead to what’s happening outside the mind as a result of the Jester, and the music is just a little better.

50/10 a look into the sequel we never knew we wanted

Tormented Souls

Tormented Souls

[French below]

Pros :

  • Really looks like to the old horror game we like so much (RE, SH, PE, AID…)

  • Not too much talking for nothing and the introduction is short

  • The difficulty (not too easy, not too difficult).

  • The puzzles are very cool.

  • The game isn’t short at all, it’s so cool, at first i was thinking “it’s gonna take 5 hours " but actually not at all. I stayed more than 17 hours on that game.

  • Differents ending are possible.

  • To me, the graphism, the global esthetism of the game are very pretty !

Spitting Image

Tis’ the season. Or rather it was. The moment November begins, pumpkins and ghosts make way for Santa hats and candy canes at a staggering rate. However, before my local shopping mall will inevitably set up a Christmas tree next week, I want to spare a backwards glance to appreciate the best game I’ve played this Halloween – Tormented Souls.

The game in question is an old-school survival horror, openly referencing Resident Evil (tank controls™ included) and Alone in the Dark as its inspirations. Fixed camera perspective, scarce resources, grotesque monsters, puzzles, and choking darkness – this title uses every trick in the old book, and more importantly executes them in a legitimately scary way.
