Flynn: Son of Crimson is an action-adventure game about a young boy named Flynn and his best friend (and island guardian) Dex as they fight to save their world Rosantica from Zealock and The Scourge as it attempts to spread across the island and destroy all life. The story is okay, but there's no real substance to it. It doesn't feel fully fleshed out, and I wasn't a fan of the disjointed way the story is told...but...

Flynn: Son of Crimson is a compact 2D action platformer that combines responsive combat, exploration, light character progression, and colorful pixel art into an adventure that feels deliberately inspired by the classics without being trapped by them. Developed by Studio Thunderhorse and published by Humble Games, the game takes place in Rosantica, an island protected from the hostile dimension known as The Scourge...

This is a pretty decent platformer in my opinion. The story and gameplay feels normal to me but that probably because I've played tons of platforming game in my entire life. The story is just a simple save someone without heavy plot twist and such but the gameplay is where the game shines. The skills you can unlock make it more fun to attack enemies, the level design are fine and boss battles are fun. The normal...

At a minimum, I expect a game to at least have consistent controls--they might be slow, bad, or poorly responsive, but I should be able to at least predict what's going to happen when I press jump, especially in a platformer. Somehow this game doesn't even meet that standard, as I found my character casually walking into pits instead of jumping over them. Aside from inconsistent controls, this game is a very dull...

Old-school 2D platformer that is chill to progress through with classic art and music to boot. Basic story keeps you going to the next stage and the different unlock and level mechanics keep things interesting enough. Mostly linear but the small amount of doubling back for challenge stages, hidden items and reuse of maps for the scourge are done decently without making things feel repetitive. Couple of fun boss...

I backed this on Kickstarter ages ago but it went into my backlog and I only just got round to playing it now, and my goodness I regret not playing this earlier. The combat is simple, but varied with the three weapon types, magic, and the extensive moves and bonuses you can learn. The story is pretty simple but it's effective and each area is different enough with varied enemies that it keeps you engaged. Also,...

Red is my favorite color! Ok I didn't know how to start this review off but on a serious note, this game is very good! Pretty short and probably shorter if you're just blazing through the story. Speaking of, the powers you get are so cool! I ain't gonna spoil them though. In terms of the artstyle, I admire how fluid the pixel art is! The story is also pretty decent imo. Nothing complex but it's neat. I like the...

This SNES style game was fun, but there wasn't enough dog time with Dex for me which was why I wanted the game. I'd still recommend. After all, there's a dog, and she's a good girl.
