   A simple, unpretentious platformer that once tried to ride on the success of "Crash Bandicoot", but now has acquired its own unique visual style, coupled with a small, and, good, "bitemap" component, the game can be called quite original with which I can congratulate the authors.
   Conceptually, everything here is "old-school", there is a semi-open hub, or hubs, in which you collect the necessary pebbles/coins, talk to someone, buy something, for enough "collectibles" you open the next level, also you can find bonus levels that give extra diamonds. Boss battles are also separate full levels.
   
   The game doesn't have a big budget, the animations are cheap, the plot is .. purely formal, the music is average. A funny detail .. When you pass by secondary characters, they don’t have voice acting, they just get text over their heads, no, I do not demand from such a game the voice acting of all the characters, but it looks somehow poor.. well, they could probably come up with something else.
   In general, a good, but average game, if you are a fan of platformers - take it! Although, are there bad platformers exists?) Crash's recent remake, Psychonauts 2, there is no shortage in this genre. But nevertheless, it’s also nice to jump here, well, for a 7/10) at least it’s even interesting to just admire the visuals, good designers did their job here.. of the enemy characters, I managed to see only toads, but they look pretty good, like chubby “battle toads”)

   Простенький, ни на какие высоты не претендующий платформер, когда-то пытающийся выехать на успехе "Креша Бандикута", но теперь обрётший свой собственный уникальный визуальный стиль, в купе с небольшой, и, хорошей, "битемап" составляющей, игру можно назвать достаточно самобытной, с чем авторов я могу поздравить.
   Концептуально тут всё по олд-скуллу, есть полу-открытый хаб, или хабы, в них вы собираете нужные камешки/монетки, с кем-то говорите, что-то покупаете, за достаточное количество "коллектиблсов" вы открываете следующий уровень, на самих уровнях можно найти бонусные уровни, дающие дополнительные алмазы. Битвы с боссами также являются отдельными полноценными уровнями.
   
   Главная проблема игры, наверное, её цена в снг регионах, прям почти "AAA", но тут бюджетом и не пахнет, анимации дешёвые, сюжет.. чисто формальный, музыка средняя. Забавная деталь.. Когда проходишь мимо второстепенных персонажей, у них без голосовой озвучки, просто реплики вылезают над головой, не, я не требую озвучивание прямо всех персонажей от такой игры, но вот уже это выглядит как-то бедно.. ну можно же было как-то по-другому придумать, мне кажется.
   В общем, хорошая, но средняя игра, если вы любитель платформеров - берите! Хотя, а вообще бывают хорошие платформеры?) Недавний ремейк Креша, Психонавты 2, не то чтобы в жанре был дефицит. Но тем не менее здесь тоже прыгать приятно, ну так, на семёрочку) В игре как минимум интересно даже просто любоваться визуалом, тут хорошие дизайнеры постарались, из вражеских персонажей я успел увидеть только жаб, но они выглядят достаточно неплохо, такие типо "батл тоадсы" толстенькие)
   Оптимизация норм. И, кстати, разрабы, где демоверсия игры? Она же была раньше, почему все отказываются от демоверсий, это очень полезная вещь для индустрии была.

   this is the return of a classic 3D Platformer series while modernizing it at the same time graphically the game looks pretty good and gameplaythis is the return of a classic 3D Platformer series while modernizing it at the same time graphically the game looks pretty good and gameplay wise its a bit easy for me but for say a 5-10 year old this would probably be perfect, the story is bland which is to be expected but the game then treats it like there was character development
   
   the modernization was kind of just cringe for me personally, but the game isn't really aimed towards me is clearly aimed at young children with the difficulty references to social media things.
   
   if you were a fan of the series as a kid you will either get a tiny bit of nostalgia from this or you will hate it maybe even both… Expand

It's rather thinly designed (not much to do, not very interesting while doing it) and seems to prioritize creating a BIG game over a polished game. For example, the story is very rote yet takes an outsized portion of the player's time. There are swooping, neatly choreographed camera which don't communicate any narrative information. The exposition isn't in the gameplay, which is a pity because if it were it might have made either the gameplay or the story somewhat interesting. There is a story, but it's so basic that it might have been better cut entirely and told without any words or dialogue. The writing may have been too bland for any voice actors to salvage; it's certainly too big of a challenge for these voice actors. To put it mildly, Kao the Kangaroo is a classic 3D platforming game in which the 3D platforming gameplay isn't satisfying.… Expand
