Buy EDF! EDF! EDF!
 
I've been playing a crazy amount of Soul Sacrifice online and I really hope it stays this good.

I notice that the game is at around 16 bosses which is really Amazing. I what what they'll do when the monsters get color swaps?

Nothing quite like making your first OT and having 90% if it's first posts be people saying they aren't getting the game. :(

I feel for you :(
still not getting the game.

Unless I'm really starved for a game and EDF drops under 10 quid. Couldn't justify paying 40 bucks for this, not when Stranger's Wrath is what, 15?
 
What's the general consensus of the music in P4G?

This evening I found myself humming one if the songs in the shower. I had to stop and catch myself as I can't ever remember having a song from a game stuck in my head. Still not sure if I actually enjoy it, or have just been playing it a lot :p

Persona 4 music and FES is IMMACULATE. No one has said anything negative :D

The one thing I don't like about Gears of War 2 Persona 4's soundtrack is that it's almost too good.

Playing it right now. Unfortunately it feels a bit too floaty and it really would benefit from highscores, but then again.. its a 2$ game that seems to get really hard/frustrating if you want that kind of 2$ game.

But it REALLY would benefit from "the longer you press, the higher you jump" mechanics. But it doesnt actually make the game bad or completely unplayable, you just need to accustom to that and then solve the levels by learning around the jumping mechanics in mind. It gets a bit better after a while, but I'll report back once again later.

Yeah, its getting Super Meatboy frustrating 5 levels in. Not the same level of course, but definitely hard. You probably want to avoid then. I replayed the last level like 20 times.

Welcome! I'm sure your well aware this is one of the kindest, most helpful threads on gaf.

Even I don't post too often, but am very comfortable here.

Not really. Seems to work okay with just double jump.

Some quick shots. Looks pretty nice (these are on phone though). Works pretty well, nice platformer with nice retro graphics from different generations. Only played a few levels but enjoying it so far. Seems like it could become pretty difficult in later levels.

Hard to control on phone, be much easier on Vita (i just can't be arsed to go get it)

Yeah, continue playing. The levels get fucking hard. I sort of get used to the controls now, but it certainly took some relearning. Also let me know how to get past that moving enemy in This is just Nasty please. (Last level of 2X81)
 
I had £2 left over in my PSN wallet so I bought Life of Pixel.

Charming style but cheap deaths (move to next screen, enemy standing right on the edge eugh) and slightly dodgy platforming at times. It's an homage to all forms of older systems, so I guess it was never going to be 'easy'.

I just wish they actually changed the gameplay according to the platforms. The game is a bit too simplistic if it doesnt change the gameplay at all. Play levels for the first 5 platforms now.

And lots of cheap deaths. Some of those levels are super hard. Only managed to beat 19/64 levels so far.

Yeah it's unfortunate that the only thing that changes between them is the visuals. Gameplay still the same and, more disappointingly, the music.

Still well worth the money though IMO if you like a decent platformer with a lot of challenge to it.

Thats the thing though, its overall not necessarily a good platformer (Despite having some early good standout levels). I wish they'd have done more something along the lines of different gameplay styles across different times. I have about 20 levels done now and the levels (despite even having gravity switches, removable blocks and some other stuff) lack the imagination of good jump& run levels. Additionally, some may be pretty nicely tuned around the jumping mechanics, especially in the first world, but the game falls apart with cheap deaths and poor level design in the multi-screen levels.

I mean, you guys are still right. Its only 2$ so its definitely worth that. But not considering the price, its not really a good game. Easily the worst game I have played on Vita so far and not anywhere near the quality of Surge/Velocity or even the proper Vita games.

Pro:
- Low Price
- Quick Platforming fix
- The jumping mechanics actually make for some interesting platforming once you get used to it.
- Changing graphics that properly represent the emulated graphical style
- They mentioned adding new graphical styles to the game (DLC I guess?)
- 64 levels sounds like a lot atm...

Contra:
- ...but considering how short they are it should be more shorter levels (The longer ones do NOT work in favor of the game).
- Not enough changing other stuff (music, gameplay elements, I would have loved to see different genres too even if that evolves into a minigame collection where each genre only has 8 levels) SO much potential
- Most levels (the multi screen ones especially) are badly designed (Imagination AND challenge wise)
- Dodgy/unprecise hit detection
- Cheap deaths
- No highscore table
- No replay value

Sorry, Super Icon!
