>>17866 By that I meant that, like Portal, it combines mechanics associated with first person shooters to create a puzzle game. This is why using descriptions like that is for arseholes.
There's a game on Steam called Edge which I've become obsessed with. It seems simple enough at first but I've gone autistic about getting the achievements for it.
It looks simple, but it has hidden depths. What I love about it is it could probably have been made for any spec hardware in the last 20 years.
Also, it will run on my shitty netbook as well as my gaming machine, bonus! It's on sale now probably on Steam, and even if it isn't it's only a few quid. Grab it, well worth it. Also the soundtrack is great (annoyingly, most youtube videos don't use the same tunes, I think this one does though)
>>17870 It was a slow burner for me. I played it for a bit and dismissed it at first as only mildly entertaining, but gradually I found myself coming back to it more and more. I now play it almost every day. I've got the achievment for rank A on all levels and I'm working my way through the one for Rank S+ on all levels.
Leave it installed on any machine you have that is mobile (netbook/laptop) and you'll find yourself playing it one day when you have nothing else to do. I even play it on my desktop now.
It came out. It's really close to being great, but the main story doesn't have that many levels. There are endless and challenge modes, but they aren't quite as fun.
A level editor would be an excellent addition. I remember they talked about it at some point, shame it didn't make it to the final release. Definitely worth a look anyway (although it'll probably be deeply discounted before too long, price is a bit steep for now).
>>21490 Yeah, I got a copy for donating ~£10 to the kickstarter back when I posted the thread, paying full price is a bit of a stretch for what it is. Especially considering that it'll probably go for a couple of quid in a steam sale or end up in a bundle soon enough though.
