Luna: Shattered Hearts: Episode 1

This is an interesting little 2-D, side scrolling game. The gameplay is fairly simple, rolling, slashing, and jumping among other actions, fighting against an array of different monsters, collecting items, finding recipe's, crafting things.. It doesn't have a comprehensive list of items to craft the way a survival game would, but it is still fun. The story is interesting and was good enough to keep me playing for over 90 minutes when I planned on only 15 - 30. All in all not a bad game, could use some work here and there, but wouldn't be a complete waste if you were to happen across it. Not sure if I would pay much for it, but if it were in a bundle, I would recommend giving it a try.

It seemed promising when under development and now I've finally gotten around to it I'm left with a bad taste of disappointment in every department. The most important flaws are rubbish controls--unresponsive with a non-variable jump height, so you will always be jumping the same height and the physics are terrible for it making it feel like some awful low-gravity moon jump. With the animations seeming to have missing frames and lack of good indicators, you're never sure how well you're doing against an enemy until it dies. Everything is so terrible in this department, it feels so sluggish you'd think the inputs were delayed and lagging. When it comes to sound, the only noticeable thing is the terrible voice acting with dialogue that can't be skipped so you're forced to listen to the stale, emotionless characters that don't even seem to try to get you to care about what's going on. Bad voice acting exists in a lot of things, yes, but when there are no means to skip or speed up the di...

This game is a huge waste of time,don't buy it,the controls are garbage and the mobs hit like a rock with loots of health,it only takes 4 or 5 hits and game over.

I am 32 years old. My ex-wife and I have a daughter together, and we adopted our son together. Both are now 4 years old. When we were going through our separation, I felt lost and unhappy. I was self-destructive. One day, I was so angry with everything spiraling out of control that I punched a concrete wall in a moment of overwhelming emotion. This resulted in breaking my fifth metacarpal in my right hand—the hand I worked with, played games with, and used to carry my children to bed—the hand I desperately needed to ensure I could continue providing. Upon learning the severity of the self-inflicted damage, I became almost suicidal. Keep in mind that just a few months before this, I was the happiest man, with no history of depression or anxiety. I had never experienced anger outbursts, nor was I the type to break down and cry, but I was in a tough situation that truly prevented me from seeing the light on the other side. With nothing better to do, I looked for a game I could pla...
