Fech The Ferret - a colorful parkour adventure

Fech The Ferret - a colorful parkour adventure

Fech is a pink ferret who enjoys running around and discovering new places. Lead him in his first adventure in the region of Marmocle, he’ll meet friendly animals to help out.

Inspired by high speed platformers and EDM, this colorful game will captivate you with its unique soundtrack and sense of flow. The gameplay takes place in interconnected zones, kind of like big thematic levels, but naturally jointed to shape up a small but nuanced open world. Inside these zones the player can parkour to try reach the end as quickly as possible by discovering new high-skill routes, or rather choose to take on the nearby challenges, such as ones posed by other animals and rhythm arae: these are temple-like cave levels entirely focused on rhythmic challenges while still adhering to the racing and platforming roots of the game.

Fech The Ferret especially caters to those who gotta go fast and would rather climb walls than do precise platforming, but you can also enjoy it at your own pace and explore this rich world in search of secrets, or perhaps chat with some Marmocleans.

The story starts as Fech gets woken up from a peaceful sleep by an earthquake. He hasn’t gotten to Marmocle by accident, but he knows barely anything about this land. Bothered, clueless and with a runny nose, he runs away from the forest and its evil pollen in search for answers and other animals. He will soon find one who will not leave his side, but we have yet to decide whether this peculiar round bird is a bliss or a menace for him.

First impression: wow I dig the artstyle and music.

Then comes the “story” text that makes up a story about why the protagonist has to go to the end of the stages, the moment after it tells you that it says “what are you waiting for, no seriously there is no story the whole point of this game is to make you rage”… Sigh. Those are contradicting sentences and it’s not generally a good idea to tell your consumers that the point of your game is to make them rage when you pay for a video game.

So I go about the first 5 level and think alright this game has a few things that could be improved upon but so far it’s good enough for what I paid (got it in a bundle) then comes level 6 of world 1 and they introduce a pink line. The goal of the game is to gravity shift through obstacles and this pink line acts as a floor or ceilling depending on where you shift from. The thing is that you have to press up or down again on the line and it would have made sense to just pass through once you input that command but instead, you just flip on it and have to press it again to pass through. That is a design flaw in my oppinion because after like 5 minute of gameplay you changed the rules where I had to input 1 command to dodge and incomming obstacle (well from 0 to 1) and made it that it became 0-3 commands per obstacle. In a runner, this is too much information that has to be made every 2 seconds and makes the game unplayable, I would have to do the whole stage per section while dying endlessly to learn the layout of the stage and execute the commands accordingly. And that is within 5 minute of gameplay, if it would be the last mechanic to learn it would have been fair but the second mechanic? Nah. There is plenty of better game in the genre, that doesn’t use unfair or poorly designed mechanics to “make you rage”. Save your money.

Rhythm Rush!

Rhythm Rush!

I love rhythm based gameplay, but this is not rhythmic at all, it’s a shitty janky rail shooter!

The movement left to right is smooth enough

Jumping while moving straight is smooth enough

The wall hugging/jumping is totally fucked

The shooting is totally fucked, I thought it was being caused by some mouse gesture software I usually use, but nope, just the game. You can shoot once fine, usually, but to shoot multiple times it says to hold the button down, and then you just get a completely random rate of fire, if it repeats at all.

Real player with 6.2 hrs in game

what starts just as another runner game appears to have much more deeper concept behind:

so first about the game - you run avoiding bigger obstacles and shooting lighter obstacles, this is already enough for the game, and there are a lot of similar games in steam, but:

first - wall jumps. this is already a thing that is not usual for most runner games.

second: different visual modes. developer could definitely make 6 different games with these different modes, but he made one, with all in one.

third: difficulties - its not that often met in quite simple ranner games.

Melody’s Escape

Melody’s Escape

Melody’s Escape is a deceptively simple yet challenging obstacle-based rhythm game with a lot of potential versatility in playstyle. While still in Early Access, it has almost no technical errors and the developer is extremely active, so I would recommend it to people who enjoy rhythm games, especially people who are looking for a different type of procedurally-generated music gameplay. I am terrible at obstacle running games, but I have never ever found the platforming element of this game to be obtrusive or overwhelming because it integrates so well with the beat and feels so smooth on a sensory level.

Real player with 99.8 hrs in game

Summary

Melody’s Escape best represents rhythm synthesizer that generates various movement keys depending on the theme and digital nature of your favorite songs. The environment is always altered between each song you choose so everything is fairly different and randomized. As such since this is a rhythm game, a lot of gameplay is created based on the music’s movement. Some parts of a song can jump from being very fast paced to having a sudden drop in movement.

ERSATZ

ERSATZ

Summary:

Recommended if you are a masochist like me.

Details:

  • Insanely difficult, but very rewarding once you understand a segment and can execute it without major errors.

  • Chill music, and objects that move with the beat, makes it easy to get in the flow.

  • Pleasant to look at

  • Unique and fun bossfights (except the first one, fuck that flower)

  • Multiple Unlockable Playstyles

  • Liberal use of Checkpoints

  • Colors sometimes make it hard to see tiny bullets

  • Crashed once

~ Perfect for speedrunning. It’s easy to get high in the leaderboards because nobody plays the game (seriously, people come play this game)

Real player with 185.9 hrs in game

Ersatz is a reflex oriented platformer with a heavy emphasis on speedruns. It is not a particularly punishing game because it has an abundance of checkpoints. About 80 percent of the features like extra modes require you to speedrun certain parts to unlock. So you do need at least some level of competent reflexes to get the full experience. As you can see I dropped 24+ hours into the game and I still have things to do. There are 3 regular modes that change mechanics, journey mode, and infinite mode. If you like that kind of gameplay where you have to learn the layout of the level it has a lot of replay value. As far as music and aesthetic part go I absolutely love it. I think for some $9 may seem a lot of a speedrun game but the price is well justified with content.
