    Lunistice is not complex or complicated by any means, and if you play a single, straightforward playthrough, it isn’t even that difficult. But it is enjoyable and addictive in its no-frills approach, and the positive vibes from its visuals and soundtrack encourage you to keep playing. It’s the indie gem that I hope gets the attention it deserves since every polygon’s love and attention on display are evident. If you’re a fan of 3D platformers or 32-bit throwbacks, then it’s a game you need to try for yourself, and at its low price point, there’s little reason not to.

    Lunistice has been created to give fans of platformers who are on their way to middle age something to reminisce with. The developer has done a great job in replicating what made the platformers for the PlayStation and Saturn so enjoyable that I could not help but smile as I played. The game brings tight controls, silky smooth gameplay, and a wonderful visual style that upholds the charm of those consoles of old; there is something aesthetically pleasing about it. Lunistice might not be a long game, but what there is a blast to play. Not all games have to push the boundaries of the medium, some can just give us a jolly good time. Lunistice does that without needing hours of your time, yet engages the player with its platforming and level design. Lunistice is a good pick for anyone who wants to enjoy a platformer that feels stripped straight from the late 90s for an afternoon or two. Plus, at an incredible price of £4.99, checking out this blast to the past will not hurt anyone’s gaming budget.

    The game is not particularly long, which is not to be expected for such a cheap game.
    Insane well polished.
    The original low poly graphics are strongly oriented towards Sega-Saturn/PS1 games.
    What gives the Game a great retro Charm.
    If the whole thing is too pixilated for you, you can use the High Res mode, for example.
    There is a whole range of settings and filters.
    Difficulty is Good Balanced. (I am Platform Noob)
    I think it has great Speedrun potential.
    If the turning circle bothers you, simply switch "smooth turning" off in the options.
    Would have even paid much more for it.
    One of the few games that I've played 100%.
    Just buy and enjoy it. Such Indie game developers must be supported.
    I hope he will make many more games.    … Full Review »
