Three chapters in and I'm out.
Was looking for a non ambitious platformer but this was too casual even for me. Pretty quickly I got tired of the game play loop and lost interest.
Visually it's not a pretty game. Very red with a weird hand like drawn graphics. Its mars so it should be red I guess but it doesn't look too interesting.
Game play wise it's not great either. You basically fly around in your jetpack and pant seeds of alien pants in order to rise biomass in order to unlock the next area. The pants text differently with each other but it just felt flat and boring.
The only thing that was keeping me interest for a bit is quite interesting story. Well voice acted with a sense of mystery could have been quite interesting but I'll never find it out.
Overall didn't enjoy my time with it and I don't have any intention of coming back to the game.
I have actually finished the mobile version of this game (original platform I believe)... really, really enjoyed it... pretty good game all around. Sci-fi story, casual gameplay, great characters, plot, nice minimalist soundtrack and the beastiary/research abstracts are a really nice touch. Alternate endings depending on how you play too!
