Well, it's a pretty interesting game. It offers some really good challenges that requires you to keep your concentration up. It doesn't even cost so much and for 1h I think it's worth the price.

[h1]Short, messy platformer.[/h1]
Rather basic but still not without challenge, I'd give [i]ZYX STORY[/i] a neutral recommendation if able. I played it because it was the last game in alphabets on my list and it has achievements.
Gimmick is that you can shoot a funky laser to press buttons that activate or de-activate lasers. With this come simple puzzles and platforming sections. There's also the usual shooting traps and blocks that turn lethal and safe every few seconds.
In addition to the laser, there's three types of enemies that sometimes appear, killed with the alt fire. Free-aim shooting is way easier with mouse than gamepad, so when the first bigger wave of enemies came at the same time, I had to switch to keyboard+mouse. Otherwise, my Xbox Controller performed fine. Though, I had to unplug it and restart the game before keyboard started responding again.
Levels are short but still sometimes have conveniently placed respawn points after and before trap sections. The character jumps really high, without being able to adjust the height, so hitting ceiling traps is a (fortunately infrequent) problem. Visually it's a mess, though thankfully there are no surprise traps. However, sometimes lasers would camouflage into the dungeon irritatingly.
There's a weird dark creature accompanying you throughout, essentially telling the tragic fantasy story.
The eight (8) levels took about one hour to beat. There are some annoying levels but nothing too bad. Couple of levels have time limits (you have to outrun various moving killzones) and couple had invisible walls that required finding the right way through invisible labyrinth, which is always cringy.
Otherwise, it wasn't all that bad, especially being such an cheap game. If you're into platforming and have a buck and an hour to spare, then sure, it's an okay time sink.

[h1]Zyx - The sound when you got lasered[/h1]
Quite enjoyable sometimes puzzle-like platformer and Jump'n'Run. All of the beautiful handdrawn backgrounds contribute to a dark atmosphere and mystery. The game consist of many unique elements like a switchable fireball gun / laser switcher, time turning platforms, rotating / sequential lasers, floating ball shooting enemies, wall of death. There are 8 challenging levels which make you think, puzzle or run for your life or learn the deadly laser sequences and patterns. If you are an oldschool player I would give it a try anyways
