The Explorer of Night

I don't think anyone on Steam remembers a good old Game Maker game from 2003 named Seiklus, but somehow this game reminds me of it. Decent adventure platformer with tight boss fights and cartoon-ish (yet sometimes scary) feel.

So while looking around for games to get i found this, sense i had some cash on hand i decided to pick it up due to it's cheap price, downloaded quite fast and i got to playing it as soon as i downloaded it. The game overall was pretty fun at first and got progressively harder as i went on, the difficulty curve felt pretty natural and i enjoyed the entire game from beginning to end. For bugs there was only one that got on my nerves, when you walk into a moving spring from the side it pushes you downwards, was quite annoying to just barely miss it then slam downwards and some edges that i could stand on that i wasn't supposed to, other than those two i found i saw no problems, for a game i bought on a whim this was extremely good and for it's price tag of 1.99 it was well worth it. I do hope that the Dev makes a sequel or some kind of continuation to this game, i had a great time with it and i would gladly get another installment if it was put out, and if it i at least enjoyed my tim...

Beyond the cute graphic, this game is a good adventure of a little cat that wants to find a flower to cure an incurable illness. The controls are really simple, relying mostly in the directionals and an action command, this plataformer is challenging in the good way, because the game has a very good learning curve, in which you will be learning to pass the obstacles in a few tries. It makes good use of the plataformer elements such as jumps, climbing, avoiding enemies, spikes, pits, items to be used in specific locations, caves, water, and others. Even though it is very simple, it is very relaxing and fun, the bossess are creative and a little bit hard. Would love to see more games :3 Premisse of the game is pure love <3

The artstyle is different but very meh and palette is boring. The music is very boring and hardly music in many areas. The gameplay does nothing new and has a lot of glitches. Hitboxes in the game are often larger than they appear resulting in stupid deaths and if you survive the hitboxes then good luck not clipping through the edge of a platform. The ai can be the most atrocious thing though because it feels extremely rng especially on bosses and several times on the last boss I was handed out forced deaths by the rng because the boss will break too many scrolling platforms and leave a gap you cannot jump and the stone spawn you need to hit him is rng too. There is an awful lot of levels with sections you will spend waiting for auto scrolling to do anything as well. For the dev I really think the number one thing that could improve your game is the music. I think some good examples of music that feel more like they would fit this game are from the night maps from "Risk of Rain" so g...

Enjoyable. The Controlls are ok, but you can't really change them and clicking up to jump feels wrong. The game feels really slow and has some unfair enemies. The boss fights are pretty fun and unique. There could be a lot more content tho and it would be amazing to have an upgrade like a double jump or a dash. Art style/ Game design: 5/10 Controlls: 7/10 enemies: 5/10 Price worth: 8/10 Overall: 6/10 PS: I need someone speedrunning this game against me :)

I was looking for some cheap games to play a couple of years back. I played it with my younger sibling a lot. Now that I'm all moved out, I look back at this game very fondly. Very cute, quick, and easy game. Highly recommend!

Why would a game designer choose to create a platformer that forces you to use the up button for jumping? How am I supposed to enjoy this game with such stupid controls? Was this game created to troll its audience? Do not buy this trash.

You probably haven't heard of this game but it is very very good. Challenging yet never cruel. I've never seen the developer interact but I don't think he is a native English speaker. One thing that might be a little odd is that you control all the jumping by pressing the left stick on the gamepad up... 7.7 out of 10

Very enjoyable. Loved the atmosphere and the aesthetic.

If you are playing this, make sure its a single sitting (or at least leave your pc on in game), I was playing this and it was good overall. But then I decide to take a break and come back. When I load my game, massive lag. Becomes unplayable and cant seem to fix it. Had to restart my game many times just to get it to work and nothing.
