    Aero's Quest doesn't pretend to be the biggest indie game yet but it delivers a lot of fun.
    I liked the retro style merged with modern atmospheres.
    The game is very challenging but to me is a positive point.
    If you get into the game for more than 10-20 mins it gets very addictive.
    Good game for the price ($5.99)

    Ok: let's start to say that I tried this game already when it was an early build showcased at Pax, and I liked it right away. The game is extremely challenging, maybe too much for the average gamer ... yet is very good. Is not the new Super Meat Boy, not Megaman for sure but a game that stands on its own.

    I start by saying that I love old games: aero's quest is not completely a retro game yet is a good mix between old and new style.
    The pace is super fast and after the tutorial the game gets rapidly challenging.
    The game has also a speedrun mode that gives a lot of replayability
    Aero's quest is a good game, especially for the price you pay.

    Can be said everything about this game but trust me, for it's price is one of the best game i bought in the summer sale!
    Doesn't get as good as other famous platformers like Super Meat Boy or Braid but it costs more than the half.

    Aero's Quest is a very good platformer with some puzzle elements. It's a long, challenging game. Graphics are not the top but they fir with the rest of the game. Price is good.

    I played this game at Pax South (the early build), I played the demo prior release and I just played the final game. I always found it very good and I must admit every time I tried it I saw many improvements. This is a classic indie game and to me it stands out in the platformer genre.

    Not the best platformer I ever played but a good game indeed. Doesn't bring anything new to the genre but it is well polished and very long (more than 100 levels) with the possibility to play again the game in speed-run mode. Not bad.

    Storyline: damsel in distress : Bad guy kidnap your love , you go rescue here
    Graphics: Not bad but not that great either , I don't like the Art Style too much. Kind of looks like a flash game because it actually was a flash game but of course this is not the same version as the flash one.
    +Gameplay: Quite difficult platformer with small levels where if you die you retry again - You have    Storyline: damsel in distress : Bad guy kidnap your love , you go rescue here
    Graphics: Not bad but not that great either , I don't like the Art Style too much. Kind of looks like a flash game because it actually was a flash game but of course this is not the same version as the flash one.
    +Gameplay: Quite difficult platformer with small levels where if you die you retry again - You have to avoid different traps - There is also things that you can take in the level like "Super Jump" , "Speed" that can change the gameplay.
    -Customisation: None whatsoever.
    -Soundtrack: The music isn't that bad but the sound effects are kind of annoying especially when the guy dies , he screams so ♥♥♥♥ing loud in an annoying manner.
    Levels: 5 Different and varied locations 1/Deepwood forest and 2/Mushroom Meltdown : Kind of the same forest theme. 3/Volcanic Valley 4/Chillwind Galcier 5/Ruthless Inc
    -Steam Achievements : Easy and lame. Also you can actually go to the Speed Run option and there you have the list of the locations where you can go in and out and have 5 achievements without doing the levels.
    -Controller Problem (xbox360): It Vibrates. Well .... what happens is normally when you get killed it vibrates and stops but sometimes and this happens a lot actually it keeps vibrating non stop and you will have to quit the game and come back

    With all these frauds i still recommend the game for people who like paltformer    … Expand

    This game is fun, simple as that. And it's challenging ... a lot!
    It reminds me the games back in 90s when any kind of game was hard and big enough to take hours of gaming and frustration to beat it.
    And I like that!
    Nothing over the top but a good game for a good price.

    In the end though, Aero’s Quest brings quite a bit of challenge to the genre and is definitely worth checking out.

    Currently sold for $4.99 on Steam, the game features 101 levels of increasingly maddening difficulty. Given the somewhat lackluster appearance and feel of the game, it’s a more than fair price point for the sheer number of levels, though it may not be enough for me to recommend the title.

    A good platformer with its mechanics even if the premise fell short. Every element worked in conjunction with each other, balancing out what would have been a dark and dismal adventure. The result wasn't a pure experience, perhaps, but it is a very playable one.
