Endlessness Reviews

I wouldn't buy it for 90 cents. I would only buy it for 89 cents.

This was certainly a ride... The premise of driving across endless terrain is nice,for the most part the game does deliver on its promised relaxation,and it's not like it was expensive,but the problems far outweigh any satisfaction that can be found. The game looks fine more-or-less,although I'm pretty sure I've seen this exact dude on a hoverbike before,and I've definitely heard this music in other games,so I assume this is made entirely with assets... Guess there's nothing technically wrong with that... There are three maps,all of which are just expanses filled with rocks to try and avoid while driving,the dust and lava levels seem pretty much identical,the ice level seems to have more hills,the hills can be useful as you hang in the air for a bit when you yeet off the top, and can plan a bit of your route on the way down.[ there's also a bit of a "WHEEE!" factor] Then again I may be entirely mistaken and all maps may be identical except for color. None of that is too bad,but now onto the 2 big problems: the fuel, and the score... As you drive you use fuel,which can be replenished by collecting little orbs scattered throughout the map...and they are SCATTERED,you can often drive for large stretches without encountering any,and some will be placed to where you just can't get em,all the while your fuel depletes. If you find yourself literally up against a wall,you can jump over it,but the amount of fuel jumping uses makes it where you may as well have just crashed and started over. One of the games achievements requires you score over 10k points,you get points for every orb you pick up,and the longer you drive uninterrupted you get a multiplier,of up to 4x...but if you turn too sharply [like say,to avoid a rock, which the map is full of nothing but.] your multiplier can completely deplete in an instant,and you're probably not gonna have enough fuel to get it back up before you're out...At the time I'm writing this,I am one of EXACTLY TWO people on the leaderboard who has a score over 10k So you can have a nice relaxing drive...until you abruptly crash or run out of gas... And you can try for that highscore...which is largely gonna depend on how lucky you are in finding fuel/keeping multiplier up/not wrecking on everything... But that's all this game has going for it. I've played worse games than this,if the experience had been unbearable I wouldn't have spent 4.5 hours driving around,but it's fuel/score problems mixed with it seemingly being nothing but assets certainly doesn't make it good. But hey... I got to be #1 on a leaderboard...that's cool I guess? It was a long drive...it could have been worse,but I'd recommend taking another route.
