League of Evil Reviews

What a strange creation. On the one hand, it seems the developer used literally every possible way to make the game frustrating without being openly evil: zero coyote time, no jump height control, plain unfair hurtboxes. There's even a very strange mechanic about the punch that I only discovered at the very end of the game: you can only punch once after leaving the ground, and it recharges after you land again. Then there's the level design, sometimes putting the trickiest jumps at the end, a blind fall into a trap or a leaper, or bad cycles (have to wait 10 seconds at the start of every attempt for the slow moving platform to move one way and back). The art and sound design is also severly lacking in punch, and it overall feels exceptionally generic. Then on the other hand, it feels really badass to beat a level after studying it through so many attempts. Precision platforming at... well, not its finest, but pretty good nonetheless. And the soundtrack is an absolute banger. I feel that with some tweaks, and a more satiric, clichéd approach to the story, this could be a great hit. But now it's really just massively mediocre.
