[Zaratustra]

Giana Sisters Twisted Dreams continues the Giana tradition of ripping off games (in this case, the world-switched mechanic is ripped from vaunted indie classic, TIME FCUK) Play as Giana and... Giana, I guess, as you rescue your sister Maria that looks just like you (I was so baffled by the plot that I thought I was controlling two different characters, one of which was kidnapped but was also with me somehow?)

The art is pretty good if repetitive, the music is pretty good. The level design is atrocious. It's so starting-level you can smell the acne of the game design pregrad they got to make it for pennies on the dollar. Sparse enemies in some areas, long stretches of instant death traps without checkpoints in others, and infuckingterminable stretches of terrain where you will be doing nothing but dodging left and right and clicking the world-switch button to grab the correct color of gems like some demented Ikaruga.

Oh, and the difference between dimensions? Some doors are open in one and not the other. And vice versa.

so does this mean Eversion 2 is back on?

[Zaratustra]

I have to thread quite a fine line here. There is a shitload of recent alternate-world games. Maybe work the action up a bit, and the puzzles up a bit.

Eversion 2 should have bosses

The Mask of Zorro - Theatrical Trailer

EDIT:
For whatever reason I cannot link to 2:29 where the quote is. Fff.

[Zaratustra]

this thread did not go the way I meant it to

[R^2]

There are lots of alt-world games

There are lots of subjective physics games

But how many let you flip worlds and gravity?

I'm totally helping.

[R^2]

Or one where flipping worlds affects the legions of tiny minions that follow you around, like the tasks they can do change depending on eversion level.

Also, more penguins.




Totally helping.

[Zaratustra]

I do have something planned for two-player mode.

Eversion 2: Extremersion, "The Evert Son"

[Classic]

Well, the obvious new feature for Eversion 2 [spoiler]would be to allow the player's avatar to also evert to solve puzzles[/spoiler]. But that kind of spoils the true ending.
