Controls ruined it off the bat
The character's movement is too slippery, jumping is awkward, and the jumping sound gets annoying very quickly.
Obligatory rating given, but it doesn't reflect anything because I played very little of this.
Reviews for "Verge"
Awesome game
Like other person before me, my first thought was cave story, but more because of the terrain design than the character or graphics. Great game, and the difficulty increased nicely.
*spoilers(i think)*
i got the creepy ending where the angel explodes.
Damn Butterflies
I've played through the game 3 times and I'm still missing the 8th butterfly
Very Solid game though
Sweet..
The art was Cave Story-esque, the music was atmospheric, the gameplay was intuitive... All in all, it was a pretty great game.
Interesting, good atmosphere, short
A game with an interesting gameplay... Death is not the end, just the beginning. I love games like this that play with the idea of 2 parallel dimensions (sort of).
Apparently this is a remake of a game by Kyle Pulver (Xerus) -there are walkthroughs from 2009 on YouTube-, more polished, with a bit different effects, and an angel (whose meaning I don't quite understand).
The game is nice and interesting, although maybe a bit too short.
It's a bit annoying how yellow boxes get stuck to walls, specially when the wall ends with a ramp, but the box won't move even if you get on top of it.
I tried getting all the butterflies (only got 2 or 3 of them). Wonder what they mean... do they have to do with the "Line ***" medals?
I tried to find an alternate solution to the last level with no success. Angel guy eats me. Also, there seem to be butterflies in boxes on the last level, but I didn't manage to reach them.
Tip for gamers: use arrow keys and not WASD, taht way you have your left hand free for tapping space. (Oh, I normally dislike it when the jump key is not the up arrow, but in this case it was justified, when you're upside down things would get annoying)
PS: Don't know if it has to do with my OS, but I got a "Line IX" medal (hurr hurr).
