    Exo One is at the same time more and less than an actual video-game. It's an out-of-body experience that brings the player across the stars for a couple hours, depycting the closest image to actual meditation we have ever seen.

    For how much I enjoyed my unique and memorable journey with Exo One, aside from achievement hunting, there’s little reason to go back and play through again unless you just want to chill out and have some ambiance. The gameplay mechanics are very intuitive and feel satisfying, captivating in its own special way. Exo One is a very beautiful and unique gaming experience, one that I’m glad to have explored.

    A short, sharply designed and immensely gratifying experience, Exo One is a trippy space ship journey worth taking. Sure, there’s a few rough edges but the deeply satisfying traversal combined with the chill vibe this game gives off make up for its shortcomings.

    Exo One does have a narrative of its own, one which you can take or leave, but the emotional gravity it manages to imbue into each and every movement of your ship, especially in the closing level of the game, leaves you with the feeling that even in this massive, lifeless expanse, your pilot has only one place they truly want to be.

    Despite everything, a very nice adventure to discover.

    A short and interesting interstellar trip that lacks the spark to become truly memorable.

    Exo One is a tremendous title that stands out from its peers. Its easy controls and excellent aesthetics make it a joy to play. If the developers had added extra elements to the latter stages, then it would have been perfect.

Although I mean that in sort of a good way. The game is all about it's amazing surreal atmosphere and environment. But the gameplay is pretty much Tiny Wings in 3D. In other words, it's not that deep. Although it can be satisfying to pull off a long jump. It reminds me of Limbo where the gameplay was a bit shallow and basic, but the presentation was outstanding and more then made up for the gameplay. It's on Xbox Game Pass, and it's worth checking out there.… Expand

    Exo One - Эхо Первый.
    Разработчик - Exbleative (Австралия).
    Выход - 18 ноября 2021 года. Австралийцы сделали достаточно необычную игру,    Exo One - Эхо Первый.
    Разработчик - Exbleative (Австралия).
    Выход - 18 ноября 2021 года.

    Австралийцы сделали достаточно необычную игру, где вы играете за внеземной аппарат. Смысл игры - перемещаться по различным планетам от точки приземления до места запуска. Планеты - разные по своим характеристикам, поэтому перемещение не такое уж и простое, нужно грамотно сочетать гравитацию, инерцию и другие возможности аппарата. За счет вот этих сложностей игра держит уровень и заставляет дойти до конца.

    Графика: 7,0. Погодные условия и всякие инопланетные события прорисованы хорошо, для такой инди-игры большего и не надо.
    Звук: 7,0. Ненавязчивый, но достаточно эффектный.
    Сюжет: 5,0. Да, сюжет тоже есть, дается он в процессе путешествий между планетами. Что-то про полет на Юпитер и спасение экипажа. Но, по большому счету, сюжет тут для обвязки и особо ничего не решает.
    Сеттинг: 8,0. Игра забрасывает то на планету, покрытую водой, то на астероид, то в какие-то леса, то еще куда-то. Для поклонников различной космической фантастики самое то.
    Управление и интерфейс: 7,0. К управлению нужно привыкнуть, еще надо понимать тонкости гравитации и инерции, но, в целом, достаточно трех кнопок и стиков.

    Общая оценка: 6,8.    … Expand

    Encore l’un de ces ‘simulateurs’ de promenade sans but mais avec une sorte de vaisseau… même si on commence à dire vrai avec une grosse bouleEncore l’un de ces ‘simulateurs’ de promenade sans but mais avec une sorte de vaisseau… même si on commence à dire vrai avec une grosse boule qui roule, puis on peut planer et se transformer en une espèce de disque pour planer au dessus de vagues environnements planétaires plus ou moins exotiques…

    Et… il suffit d’aller vaguement tout droit, plus ou moins vite, plus ou moins haut ou tout en bas (comme une boule de flipper) et… quoi d’autre ? un peu de musique d’ascenseur, quelques effets sonores désagréables dans l’ensemble et des graphismes très quelconques (c’est boulotté par un développeur indé avec Unity, ceci expliquant cela).

    Le pire, en dehors du non-sens et de l’ennui, c’est que même sur Series X, le jeu ne tient pas ses 60 im/s et se permet des ralentissements inacceptables… alors que c’est vide, plus vide encore qu’un vieux kaléidoscope foireux. Enfin bref, un étron indé de plus, la routine en somme !    … Expand
