Duck Life 6: Space Reviews

Its a cute duck game

Duck Life Space is probably one of my least favourite DL games, to be honest. The format is very similar to Duck Life 4 : 6 worlds, with the first 5 allowing you to train your statistics and ending with a tournament, and the last world only has 3 difficult races and one last final race in which you can actually control your duck. The main change in terms of gameplay is that instead of each world being assigned one specific statistic that you can train up to level 150 as soon as you have access to it, you instead can only train statistics up to a certain level per world, and the maximum level has been reduced to 100. I actually think this is an improvement over DL4, but many of the minigames don't actually involve much skill since you get XP at a consistent rate and just have to survive as long as you can. I don't really like the artstyle in this game. It's not as polished as later Duck Life games are (even Battle, which was made only a year later), and it doesn't have that "Flash Game charm" that the originals had either. I'm also not a fan of the bright red and yellow colours on Mars and the Moon specifically, although planets like Terra do have more pleasing aesthetics. The music, too, is a big downgrade from earlier titles, in my opinion. It overall sounds much more "cheesy" and unserious, which makes me feel a lot less involved with the game. The main exception however, is the Jumping training theme, which is honestly the most memorable piece of the soundtrack for me.
