Moventure Reviews

controls are too funky

90% of the negative reviews are just skill issue. If you master the movement system the game is incredibly fun.

I cannot recommend this until the ability to freely rebind controls is added. There are four presets offered ingame and none of them are comfortable to use. Gameplay itself is decent: experimenting to figure out how to do some maneuvres. Using those to explore. Devs, please add user-configured keybinds. It would make a huge difference.

Really good game and very unique Discovering how and when to use a move is rewarding This games controls is unintuitive by design which makes it hard to play but creates an enjoyable skill ceiling My only problem with it is a few of the levels/rooms are "puzzles" which makes a second playthrough a bit less fun to get through because it slows the pace and doesn't fully utilizes the movement of the game

I had enjoyed Reventure quite a bit, so figured I'd give this game a try. I have mixed feelings about this game. The concept is really cool. I enjoy that there are a lot of different moves and ways your character can behave. The platforming is mostly okay. Sometimes it can feel inconsistent or buggy on ledges. Sometimes the game seems to punish you in unexpected ways. I play a lot of platformers, and I'm usually pretty good at knowing when it's my fault or the game's fault. Then there are some very intentional annoying things. Like tripping over rocks, slamming into walls constantly, dying to a rock that was moving ever so slightly. I had to tough it out to get all the chests and such. The pixel art in the game is quite good. It's very basic but in a way that's charming. The music is good too. I'm going to give it a thumbsup, but it's reluctant. I would say there are plenty of other games to play before this one. But if you really like platformers, are low on options, and are looking to scratch that itch, this one probably will.
