verge

Verge, a puzzle platformer by Kyle Pulver, that revolves around a mechanic involving life and death, because when the character dies you will sometimes find the answer to solving the puzzle.

  1. I didn't care much for this one. The levels are challenging enough but don't have much else going for them. Also, as always, I'm not a fan of altered controls as the only means of making a game "interesting". Thanks for this anyway, always nice to try something new :)

  2. Not bad. For all the work, though, it was a seriously lame ending.

    It was reasonably clever, for sure, but I just wouldn't put it on my A-list.

  3. Nice game! The controls are not perfect, though, when you jump you haven't a good control on the landing. Not sure about the end's meaning...

  5. I like it, but it was pretty confusing; I also got kinda dizzy from playing.

  6. Hmm, all of a sudden it was finished. Pity, once i got the controls down it was pretty fun, and then it ended abruptly. Also, yeah, it has sticky keys.

  7. I agree with Queen Fume-Boo: this game was very dizzying, confusing, and challenging, all in a negative way. Sorry, Bart.

  8. I agree with K completely. Thumbs down Bart.

  9. I just don't get it. I get blocked, I get killed, I start again.

    Obviously I'm missing something...

  10. Oh yeah- I agree with everybody that the controls were awfully slidy.

  13. I thought that the game was interesting. It was challenging with the sticky keys though. I also found that there were 2 endings. One was the basic follow through ending. The other ending was only found when you collected all the firefly things. (Yes, even the one from the first level. You have to let yourself be killed by the one enemy in that level since there are no spikes.)
