Pony Island. Don’t look into the game at all. Go in blind. Awesome little gem of a game.

Second this.

Also once you're done, play Dan Mullens other games: The Hex and Inscryption.

Yep. I beat Hex. I stopped playing Inscryption by the 2nd "phase" (I don't know what it's called, but you know what I mean). I'm having a difficult time picking it back up.

The 2nd and 3rd acts of the game were a bit weaker than the first one(to the point where they released a version that is just an endless act 1) but the ending of the game was incredible

I never could get far in it. I have absolutely terrible hand-eye coordination for the exact type of action the game presents. I've never gotten past the second round of pony levels. I've lost at least 30 times in stage 4 (the second stage with floating demon heads). I just can't do both things at once.

Which is a shame. The puzzle part of the game is great. I wish there were a way to skip the action parts. I forgot all about it til your comment here. I might just have to give in and watch a let's play of it.

Trying to take your advice and not look into the game. Can you tell us what genre this is?

[–] qwertyqwertyqwerty@lemmy.one 3 points 1 year ago

I haven’t played it in years. I guess would say puzzle platformer? It reminds me most of Undertale and it’s a little hard to nail down a specific category. It’s much more than it appears. I would say there’s very little replayability.
