Tip for Xbox/Microsoft

The price is too high. It's not even in the top 200 chart on Stream. Barely in the top 400.

Finished the game ten minutes ago. What a wild hallucinatory trip that was. And what an HDR workout for my OLED TV. Striking art style, great animation, eye popping colors. It was a feast for the eyes.

I'm glad I played this.

GAF favorite Skill-Up seems to be a fan of the game.

Uninstalled after an hour, bored me to sleep. Nice if kitschy visuals. Would prefer something more gameplay driven like Psychonauts 2 were.

The new Friends per Second podcast episode had an interview segment with Tim Schafer and Lee Petty about Keeper.

Credits Roll, I just finished it.
About 6 hours or so.
The game lets you go back and redo that one area near the end. It's labeled the Sensorium.
I enjoyed this. Really weird game. Not sure what happened there at the end.

Spoiler: DLC

The Mountain King?

You can hop back to get all the achievements if you want with chapter select pretty easy. The super minimal, abstract story is told entirely through the achievements.

I got all but 4 secret achievements. I think I missed some of the rock clam shrines. Not sure what else I might have missed.

Every achievement is a shrine. Its not too bad to get the rest. I missed about 4 first time as well.

I'm stuck,
There is a part where I have to get 2 lights on a big vine and I'm the third. I see where I need to focus one on one of the lights but it's not doing anything when I shine on it. Either the game is broken here or I'm missing something. I did not want to have to look up a walkthrough. But I'm stuck.

That part was really annoying. While the hints are pretty clear if you think about it, something in the framing and in the setting of the various bits of the puzzle makes it more obscure than anything before. What I really didn't like is how a lot of accessible rooms in that part of the game are not obvious at all. You have to guess where a passage or entrance may be hidden in the scenery. It probably took me an hour to figure it all out.

Some 3 hrs in.

It has come to point where games is constantly introducing interesting gameplay elements, story bits, vistas etc. Enjoying it.

Before it had a couple of levels that were plain walking, now it has become quite a bit better.

Just finished. Absolutely loved it. My only two dings would be the controls for moving while using the light kinda sucked and I glitched in a spot where I had to restart the game from a checkpoint.

9/10

I had no idea where the game was taking me but it kept changing and made me excited for the next sections each time. 10 hours, which was worth my $29. Prolly my GOTY.

This shit is running 30 on SX?

 

[vaibhavpisal]

Finished it.

Amazing stuff.

Game feels like a well crafted music album.

Starts pretty slow, then slowly picks up, ending in absolute crescendo. With some ups and downs on the way.

Top 10 game of the year for me, potentially top 5.

This shit is running 30 on SX?

Yeah and it's fucking gorgeous.

It's refreshing to play something weird like this. This is a fine game to go out on before Microsoft kills double fine.
