I tend to get pretty bored of these kinds of games and have played many similar games. Still nice for those that wanted it but for whatever reason decided to wait. mrbiggles Well-Known Member Jul 3, 2012 3,691 0 0 Like retired USA #9 mrbiggles, Feb 26, 2014 agree, looks like an interesting challenge, just not sure i'm up for the basic concept gameplay with the load of games already.

When the mechanic clicks for you, it's *magic.* Bronxsta Well-Known Member Oct 10, 2012 4,698 6 38 http://indiegameenthusiast.blogspot.com/ #12 Bronxsta, Feb 26, 2014 This. I'd describe the gameplay as graceful, almost a dance, and once you're in that zone, it becomes this fluid evasion that's a joy to watch. joydiv Well-Known Member May 18, 2012 60 0 0 Med Student Lisbon #13 joydiv, Feb 26, 2014 I wouldn't even download that poor man's Zelda if it were free.

More than that I would hope people could respect others for not buying games they know they will not enjoy. sink_or_swim Well-Known Member Feb 4, 2012 3,504 5 38 Germany #17 sink_or_swim, Feb 26, 2014 my comment wasn't against you, I know you buy lots of games.
