Perspectrum, an indie game developed by ProudMom Games, is a 2-D puzzle platformer for Windows, Mac, and Linux via Steam, Itch.io, and Game Jolt. Players take the role of the "Tall Stranger", a being who has awakened with the power to use ancient fountains to change the elements of the world. The stranger must use spirit fragments scattered throughout the various levels to bring the mountain back to life. The game will include an overworld and five dungeons, each introducing it's own unique mechanic to help collect more spirit fragments.

Mixed bag, didn't really draw me in

-- Part of my Itch.io Bundle Project - Attempting to play and rate every game in the 2020 Bundle for Racial Justice --

  • Rating: 4.3 / 10
  • Year played: 2020
  • Playtime: 5-15 mins
  • Completion level: Played some, didn't finish
  • Verdict: Not my thing but maybe it's yours

Wall-jumpy 2D pixel platformer with light puzzle elements involving special obelisks that change the type of the elements in the world (such as turning all water in the level into ice). There is an overworld with NPCs to talk to that you get to after a few levels, so there may be an actual narrative here, but it just didn't grab me for long enough to find out.

Controls were kinda meh, the wall jumping was hit-or-miss whether it worked or not, and I wished I could've remapped the jump/interact keys (Z/X respectively, felt sorta awkward). It's overall kind of a mixed bag.
