May 4, 2020Really good and fun mechanics, just waaay too short, finished in about an hour and a half

Feb 13, 2021This game feels barely finished. The perspectives are broken - if you go near a wall, the camera pans through to the other side, obscuring where you are... the controls are sluggish, the cutscenes plodding (but if you skip them, you’re thrust awkwardly into the action). It doesn’t feel like this should be on sale, even for a dollar or two.

Sep 22, 2021This feels like it should be the leaked, alpha stage of the game. There's some good ideas that would be fun to see done better and fleshed out. I liked the momentum you build up and how fun that could be compared to Sonic titles...but it just tripped and fell on its face. It's tedious and frustrating. Gave me Bubsy 3D vibes. Not worth a buy.

Aug 17, 2020Running through different maps may sound like something fun. Sadly this is not the case of Defunct, something that makes it a game not very recommendable in the eShop. Its great lack of content is its biggest mistake.

Feb 6, 2020Defunct is a fast-paced and exhilarating experience, let down in places by camera work and the non-intuitive handling that it can cause. It’s a very short game, so check it out if it hits up an eShop sale.

Sep 27, 2018Above all else, Defunct sells itself on an exhilarating sense of speed matched with excellent level design and exploration. It’s rare to find a game where simply moving around is as fun as it is here. Of course the game’s short length might deter some, but it’s genuinely interesting to see a developer run with the idea of a momentum-based platformer and nail the core mechanics.
