mouse level.

I agree it was fun but do you mean some technical feat?   other than I had fun and I thought game design was clever I don't remember anything feeling like a technical achievement above and beyond what's been done before. loved, love, loved going under a table or whatever and becoming big to destroy things.   


well,.. I was impressed with how certain things deformed Soo satisfyingly.   I know they used it in more places but the easiest one to describe is platforming on the hot air balloons.

The environments are detailed enough to pull it off, that's what I mean. Every other time I've played a game that has had a scale transform like that, there are tons of big assets that look low quality when small and/or small assets that are way higher quality than everything else.

Quote from: Legend on Dec 24, 2024, 03:26 PMThe warp gates are the one legit flaw with the game, unless I'm missing something. Sucks to cut away from a level and then have to restart it.

Think the game has a couple of spots for improvement, but this one feels like an unnecessary flaw.

I think most of the secret exists are hidden well enough that I didn't find them on my first playthrough.  

I think you are making too much of this.

Halfway through. Outside of missing my first gateway, so far I'm 100% levels on my first run. I think I'll 100% the game unless I don't have enough money for costumes

you ought to or at least be close enough to farm it by just doing a couple reruns.  

I ended the game with like 2000 too many coins after replaying to get the things I missed.

Is there any point to the zoo?

I think there's a couple of collectibles in there is all. 

That's the only thing you'd need to do with it. 

I'm not sure if it does anything past that. Only been there once I think.

No,. Not really much of a point.  Just a stepping stone to the final challenge level.

I finished the DLC stuff last night, and that was fun for the most part.

The monkey level feels less fun the faster you're trying to get.

the monkey speed run level?   

in a fit of frustration I took to the Internet to vent.  I was not the only one.  ...but then someone posted it's easy to go fast if you disable motion controls.   they were very, very right.

I really really loved the reveal that the mummy level was a put put golf level. True out loud laughing.

What the heck did they do to the uncharted theme song though!? Maybe my game had real glitches on top of the fake glitches because it kept doing the wrong notes and stuff.

That's fun! The rain drop splashes on the ground are the playstation button symbols.
