Stardust Demon delves deep into an array of unusual alien worlds, assembly goofy creatures and blasting wild demons alongside the way in which.
A spaceship has crash landed in your neck of the universe, inflicting every kind of hassle in your neighborhood and kicking off an extended journey that can take you thru every kind of various planets. On these differing worlds, you’ll should make use of your neat talents to determine your method by way of environmental puzzles everytime you’re not blasting oddball beasts. Count on to fastidiously bounce beams round rooms, pogo hop your method by way of spiky corridors, and use teleportation talents to skulk about and discover hard-to-reach goodies.
All of it makes for a stable motion/exploration recreation that undoubtedly jogs my memory of Cave Story, however as this can be a recreation from the creators of Mibibli’s Quest, it’s additionally received a surreal feeling in its places and characters (all of whom are charming or memorable in their very own method). A substantial amount of the enjoyment on this recreation simply comes from discovering new folks and locations. Whereas I extremely loved the motion within the recreation (battling a monster that assaults you with the letters within the phrase “roar” had me chuckling), this recreation actually rewards you for simply taking the journey by way of it. Even your character’s stroll cycle appears to be like cute and makes meandering round worlds nice all by itself.
Stardust Demon genuinely feels full of enjoyable issues to seek out, and never simply from its secrets and techniques. It’s in each step you make on a brand new planet, working into every kind of artistic monsters, watching them transfer round, and assembly new characters that this recreation actually shines. Nice puzzles and motion, like I mentioned, however this can be a world I used to be simply blissful to discover and get to know all by itself.
Stardust Demon is accessible now on itch.io and Steam.
