Journey to the Savage Planet Review (-=9315+35/<r4/VX=-)
In general I like the game. Though it can get boring relatively quick.
BUT I have to repeat what I already wrote hundred of times:
It is a VERY BAD idea to use invisible walls in an exploring game! Especially if it has Groundless holes, where you can "die"! I foxing HATE that!!!
And I totally understand if you can't pause the game (e.g. during using the main menu) in multiplayer games. But it is also a terrible idea during single player game! You quickly have to run to the loo and find your char dead when you come back.
Why on earth do devolper come to such stupid ideas???
Such mechanics are a proof that it is just developed as a new-school-kiddy-cashgrab-game instead of making it a serious game with though-out concept.
So as much as I like the game and would like to give it a recommendation, I only can rate it the way the devs obviously WANT it to be rated. I am NOT sorry for the thumb down here.
Edit:
The more I play this game, the more I see from the dirty and loveless punched together tec-side of the game. The maps are not even build proper. Have fun falling into the void. And I do NOT mean the space between the isles, but the REAL void where you fall through the whole map! (at least the game has mercy and let you die at a falling depth of around 8 or 9 kilometers)
Also the gun doesnt shoot at the first click. Its such a pain.
Seriously: I want QUALITY games from QUALITY Design and Programming specialists!
NOT some pricey rushed together cattle food from marketing clowns!
Edit 2:
Achievements that can be reached ONLY in coop...? Nice, you received the "negative review for sure"-achievement with this further GREAT idea! <3
Edit 3:
Even the ending is a nothing. Don't waste your time to 100% the game. Its not worth. The best you can do is to leave the planet asap without the seed. Then you get a little bit more entertaining ending at least.
I really don't understand what people mean by saying this game would be soooo humorous. Yes it's entertaining (the ads are awesome!), but humans also keep telling me, that I would be a funny guy. (...and I am not.) Lets come to a compromise and say its a "mildly funny" game. Think that's fair enough.
