Avis sur Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass

Incroyable, bouleversant, jetez vous dessus.

I never leave reviews on Steam. But this time, I felt like I had to. Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass is an underrated masterpiece. It is approximately around 50 hours long excluding post-game content. I loved every piece of it, from the OST to the battles without ignoring the graphics. Well, I will admit I got a bit thrown off by the latter at first but I got hooked after the first hours of gameplay were done. I'm a big Earthbound fan and I completely felt at home with this game while it is quite different in the same time. It has a poetic tone like Earthbound but it's much darker, it definitely has *very* disturbing moments. Now, the battles. Oh boy. They felt like puzzles in themselves, (boss battles mainly). They never got old because each (mid to end-game) boss battle was different and I had to use a different strategy to beat them. While the Discord community helped me a lot going through it, I swear I had my teeth clenched through every boss because I had to Strategize. (Shoutout to the Lingering Eyes boss fight). To sum it up quickly, Jimmy can change forms in and outside of battles and every party member has a purpose to serve (the Dad can triple the damage of the next attack and poison the enemy, the Uncle can tank and focus the enemy attacks on him, the Mom is a healer and buffer...) A lot can be done with Strategy! As for the story, it was quite endearing, no spoilers, but the dream-like setting, while it can be a bit vague, really was hooking material. The characters are greatly written (Punch Tanaka in mind) and will never fall into easiness. I do admit this game is not for everyone, but I do believe a lot of people who loved Earthbound will absolutely have a blast with this game. Thank you for Reading!

Wow que dire de plus, Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass est un de ces jeux qu'on oublie pas de si tôt. Ce jeu m'a rapellé mes premières expériences en tant que gamer, avec des jeux comme Earthbound, Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy VI, etc (SNES). J'ai adoré son histoire particulière, poétique, à la Earthbound, bref après plusieurs années de création Kasey Ozymy nous a pondu un jeu en or. + Contenu gigantesque je suis rendu au Post Game et je n'ai pas encore tout vu. + Soundtrack rafraîchissante et intelligente. + Personnages avec une "psyché" profonde. + Gameplay comme Earthbound, mais beaucoup plus stratégique. - La diffilculté du jeu m'a un peu rebuté, mais depuis avec les nombreuses mise à jour il y a un mode Facile. Wow what more can I say, Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass is one of those games we do not forget so soon. This game reminded me of my first experiences as a player, with games like Earthbound, Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy VI, etc. (SNES) I loved his particular story, poetic, like Earthbound, After a few years of development Kasey Ozymy did a fanatastic game. + Gigantic content I went to the Post Game and I have not seen everything yet. + Refreshing and intelligent soundtrack. + Characters with a deep "psyche". + Gameplay as Earthbound, but much more strategic. - The diffilculty of game was a little to much for me at the beginning but now with the updates the game have a Easy mode.
