Cookie Mom 最近的评测

I think the shop is interesting, but I found so many of the characters to be off-putting that I just had no interest in continuing to play. Ending the first chapter I had to hire the son of the bank owner in order to get a loan from the bank. Which required me to mix toothpaste into the lemonade at his lemonade stand. That was the straw that broke my back, but before then was my aunt celebrating my success by firing the existing help for more profit, destroying the documents that showed the location representative was mismanaging funds, and assisting the CEO of a local factory in corporate espionage against another local manufacturer. I don't like these people, and I don't want to go back to interacting with them.

Let me get the important pain points out of the way. The controls are sluggish. There's several points at which jumping is pixel perfect with weird ledges that can make you feel soft-locked.

But there's a lot of good ideas in here. While multiple metroidvanias give you multiple weapons, rarely do I feel the need to juggle the weapons as I do in this. Multiple bosses require figuring out how to use the arena to your advantage. This is a game I can look at, and be encouraged for what this team will produce in the future. I look forward to seeing the lessons they learn for their next project.

An enjoyable crafting game with elements of Stardew and SpaceChem (much later in the game), it was cute, cozy, and scratched my desire to optimize a production line while not overstaying it's welcome. The only (minor) criticism I have is after unlocking hard mode at the end of the game, it just appears to be tedious mode. It would be difficult, but I would suggest a hard mode have more complex recipes, or more terrain that has to be built around.

Do I recommend this? Yeah. I got 30 hours of playtime out of it for $20. That's a good deal.

Am I going to finish it? Absolutely not. I want to stress that this isn't because SilkSong is hard. I do not mind hard challenges. I got through N++'s Expert row, Super Meat Boy's Bandage Alley, and I Wanna Be The Guy. It is that the game doesn't respect my time and does so through artificial inflation of gameplay. This game gets painful in a way that becomes dull with it's tedium. Quests to find objects that are randomly located on the ground throughout a zone without notifying the player so you need to go back and forth over the same area repeatedly, hoping RNG is in your favor. Endless backtracking for triggers you don't know you've activated. The final straw for me was a gauntlet fight that ended in a boss fight, After several attempts, I found out it was followed by more gauntlet and then two copies of the boss. 15 minutes of slog to get to the big challenge. Maybe. It might go further past that. I don't care to find out and I've uninstalled the game.

If you get it, I hope you enjoy what time you spend with it. But you can have things that are hard and that respect your time.

Ignore the time spent on TUNIC on Steam, I bought it again just so I could review it here. This was my Game of the Year of 2022, and it has far more depth than you would think on it's surface. It is one of the few games that has the pleasure of living rent free in my mind long after I've completed it, and I curse my strong memory for preventing me from enjoying it's surprises again for at least a decade. Traversing The Golden Path is one of gaming's best achievements and I wish I could watch along side you as you uncover it for yourself.

A solid second attempt at a Metroidvania by the team behind Vision: Soft Reset. By giving you a cast of characters to switch between at the press of a button, it gives you interesting movement combinations to play with.

Also, credit where it's due on a final boss that messed with the game mechanics well, and had an attack that was absolutely terrifying.

A simple Metroidvania, it gets several things right, and could stand for a few QoL improvements.

This game is aimed at a younger audience. There's assistance throughout the game and a unique death save item that made me smile when it first triggered. I like how the map opened up to give multiple paths for progression, where most games in this genre give a single path to take.

That said, the game would be greatly improved with a monster guide, showing what enemies drop what items, and which random area chests I need to farm to get the random drops I hope for. Additionally, after Yohane is defeated, she is returned to her home, and all of her items remain spent. This can force the player in to having to farm for money in order to replace the items that were expended during the fight, which is not fun gameplay. Another possible improvement I can think of is allowing the player to buy the death save item as well, instead of having to wait for it to randomly drop.

All in all, I think this would be a good starter game for younger gamers into the Metroidvania genre, while more practiced gamers will fly through this game with little issue until the end bosses.

It sets itself apart from other rogue-likes with charming characters and interactions. I continued playing not for the challenge, but for the delightful plot. There's a challenge to the game if you want it, but it's entirely up to you.

Rogue-like co-op tactical combat. It's early access is more thoroughly playable than many companies full release games.

Yeah it's a cute little puzzle game that will take several hours to finish, and the characters are fun and funny. But every day, without fail, since finishing the game, I boot it up to take a crack at a daily build and see where I come in. I'll just leave it up for an hour while I work since the music is chill and come back to it when I need to try something new.

Cannot recommend enough. Really looking forward to what they do next.
