Sweven Reviews

[h1]Re-joining the rabbit family[/h1] If you don't get bothered that the game is now available for iOS and Android you might also play it on your PC. Even if it's just a Flashgame the BW graphics have a quite immersive atmosphere. Some jump mechanics are quite buggy (especially when the eagle comes) But altogether you can passthrough this adventure in less than half a hour.

i reeeaaaally wanted to like this game but the controls are terrible. Can't enjoy the atmosphere when your're too focused on trying to wrap your head around basic movement.

Like the rabbit ; Small but great. Don't expect to get a game that needs 25hours to complete it. Don't expect to have the most insane strategies. The game is fairly fast forward. Just enjoy the scenes and the small story. You get worth your money and I kinda liked the whole art-style and ending.

[b]Sweven[/b] is a side-scrolling platformer game. The game has 6 levels with an achievement after you finish each one. The game has a dark environment with calming background music. The game is very short to have a long review. Overall, I recommend this game for a nice relaxing evening together with short games for some 100% achievements completion to add to your profile.

Really loved this small, short adventure. Minimalistic, but with awesome black and white graphics and a dreamy tale. And completely playable with a normal controller :) Really recommended!

The poor man's Limbo: I purchased this game as it reminded me of the aforementioned game. Limbo was a great and rather interesting platformer and Sweven looked like a game trying to imitate this experience. Instead, we get a really short game (completing all stages should take no longer than 30 minutes) and that's it. The rest of the playtime is only for idling in order to get all the trading cards it has to offer. While the game's black and white themed design is similar to that of Limbo it does not have the same atmosphere. This is not necessarily a problem as Limbo was quite sad and depressing; in Sweven our rabbit protagonist manages to get back to its family safe and sound. There isn't much information telling us why we go from the surface to the caves and what we're doing in the world of men (with all the shields and spears the time period is definitely not modern). In any case, this is a short and interesting platformer but I think you are better off with Limbo. Also, the game puts a lot of emphasis on its music which - it says - should be listened to by wearing a headset. This, similarly to the rest of the game, I found mediocre.

Sweven is what happens is when your animations are poor, your assets are buggy, and you don't even have enough budget to add colour to your game. Between a sheer lack of content, inconsistent controls and the occasional lack of proofreading, the only memorable aspect of Sweven is how all its jolly bugs manage to occupy a whole 3.7 GB of hard disk space.

I bought that game as soon as I saw it on the new release, because it kinda reminded me on Limbo. I instantly installed it and finished it already in about 30min. So it is a pretty short game, it had only a few level (seven if I recall correctly) and most of them are pretty straight forward rushing through them. There was only one level that took me a bit longer than just running through it. Also the level doesn't seem to have a real connection between them. The story ... well it wasn't really there; you start in a cage and end up back at your parents at the end of the game, but besides a few sentences here and there the game has no real story, besides getting back to your parents. Addionally the ambience wasn't that great, because you have a few sound effects here and there, but that's all as far as I remember, I don't even remember the game having any music. (maybe it had, but it didn't really take notice of it) So it was nowhere close to being something like Limbo. That takes me to the point that I can't recommend the game at all, it would have been better as a free game or a demo to a bigger game, but for the 1.99€, where I live, it is way too much to ask for such a short pretty boring game.

Sweven is beautiful atmospheric platformer. Game is a bit too short but art and atmosphere quality makes it unforgetable. The game is very simple and similar to Limbo. [h1] PROS [/h1] [b] Art. [/b] Sweven world is awesome. Graphics quality is nice and all locations feels different. It is one of most beautiful and atmospheric game I ever played. [b] Soundtrack. [/b] Music in the game is very simple and nice. Sweven delivers peace and happiness to your world and music just intensifies that feeling. [b] Phrases. [/b] Instead of full story you get background phrases telling you about game environment. Those phrases can be easily applied to our world and makes this game a bit emotional and thoughtful and those moments was the thing made this game really enjoyable. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=911246778 [h1] NEUTRAL [/h1] [b] Controls. [/b] You need 3 buttons to play this game: forward, backwards and jump. Why in neutral section? sometimes it felt clunky. [b] Level design. [/b] Some levels were poorly designed by either forcing you to wait for too long or important things happened offscreen without your knowledge. Other levels were really nice and beautiful. [h1] CONS [/h1] [b] Glitches and bugs. [/b] I found some glitches and sometimes jumping/walking on a tilted ground is really weird. This can be easily changed and fixed and I hope developer will do that. [b] Too short. [/b] I finished game in about 40 minutes and I wasn't satisfied by that. I wanted more of this game and developers offered very short journey. I would like to see more levels added and more different puzzles implemented. [h1] CONCLUSION [/h1] I do recommend this game for nice and calm evening. Since Sweven is very short it is one sit game. If you looking for the game to play over and over again this isn't the game you should play but if you want beautiful and inspiring journey take it and don't look back.

[h1] It was ok, but now feels kinda lacking. Still nice little story. [/h1]
