Today: sci-fi puzzle adventureClaire De Lune.
You have a zappy non-violent gun necessary for navigating a series of platforming challenges.
That’s… actually where the similarities end.
It’s… nice.
The puzzles are based around your not-portal gun, which assembles technomagical things where you point it.
There’s nothing as revolutionary or captivating as portals here, and in fact its abilities are rather humdrum.
If I disliked the game I’d say the powers were underwhelming and really just platforming with extra steps.
There’s an early moment where you temporarily upgrade said AI, and it cackles “Oho!
with such joy that it pretty much won me over on the spot.
The obstacles you face change and interact without outstaying their welcome.
Its all… decent.
Apart from the skittering spider monsters, that is.
Jesus christ, the first 20 minutes of this are not for arachnophobes.
