Midnight Manor Reviews

Small, but lovely game with some secrets I enjoyed this game, this is the type where you can fing all endings (and a secret scene?) just doing exploring and trying some ideas. Controls are nice, 2d retro atmosphere, a lot of achievements. Game is short, but it is making easier to find all endings.

It's a fun little game that I knew nothing about going in. It has a eerie/spooky vibe that I liked. Maybe it's a bit too short? You can replay for multiple endings, but it's a little repetitive because it doesn't really branch a lot and the first part is really the same, I still haven't found one of them. I just have a few minor criticisms: - Controls can't be changed? The default keyboard controls are spread out with arrows+tab/q+w+e+space, I usually remap to wasd+hjkl(and/or surrounding keys) layout. I even looked and there's a save.json file, but nothing about keys, unless I'm missing it. - The platforming has a lot of jump-through platforms that you drop down from with down+jump, and holding them doesn't seem to work so you gotta tap jump, and there doesn't seem to be any (or little if there is) forgiveness for early presses, which can be done by buffering the input. - The music in one area loops often and it doesn't fade well, sound like it stops and starts over, I think it's the upper level.

I do like this game. It's affordable and It is short but can be replayed. This is def a speed runner game (not a speed runner myself) so if you're someone who is an achievement collector, buy with caution. You may get frustrated or put hours of replay into it. There are no save points since the game is intended to be played in one sitting and there are no guides or walkthroughs to the under 8 minutes achievements, which is frustrating. I do think with practice it can be achieved. I am not sure if the timer starts again after the first stage even though the timer does continue it's count. It feels impossible to get the under 8 minutes achievement but again I am not a speed runner, this may be different for those who are.

A nice little game with excellent pixel graphics and polished gameplay. For a price low as 2 EUR, I can only recommend it!

ENG: This pretty good, has a bit of platforming and puzzle, but with very little difficulty, the pixel art looks nice and the music although somewhat repetitive gives good atmosphere, the negative point is that it does not have to save the game so you have to pass it in one attempt, and this for each final, so you have to pass it 4 times. ESP: Esta bastante bueno, tiene un poco de plataformeo y puzzle, pero con muy poca dificultad, el pixel art se ve lindo y la música aunque algo repetitiva acompaña bien la ambientacion, el punto negativo es que no tiene para guardar la partida por lo que hay que pasarlo de un intento, y esto para cada , por lo que hay que pasarlo 4 veces.
