Reviews for "Perdition"

I like how instead of "Evil and Good" on your shoulder, it's God and God riddling you.

Though one God offers your broken memory, and the other offers a normal life (or kills you due to the plague of difference)

Though, i don't like how the story in the beginning was prolonged. Respawning/Obtaining the blade took way too long. Neither did the actual beginning. Personally, it took away from the "Escape" atmosphere.
Nice story mixed with platform of deep descent.

Interesting game with some good ideas and ambitious story. My three major criterions in any game analysis are the extent to which game utilizes its gameplay mechanics, how this mechanics interact with the story and artistic style to produce an integral aesthetic experience of a game, and how fun and interesting this experience is to me.
As to game mechanics, I think that some of them could have been improved to create more seamless gameplay. For example, actual platformer mechanics in this platformer game are, in my opinion, somewhat rough and bumpy: the heroine is too tall (or the ceilings are to low), so at many points when jumping over a pit was required her head was the cause of frustrating death on the spikes. Also squatting, crawling or other ways of interactions with environment would have add more variety and depth to the gameplay experience. However, game achievements, in my opinion, work really well, serving as a supplementary motivation source for search for new ways to complete the game.
Visual and sound design are impressive, the atmosphere of rust and decay is conveyed very well. But since visual undertones, contrasts and details are quite few, these two major visual themes pall somewhere in the middle of the walkthrough. The story though is not devoid of satisfying sense of horrifying mystery and is narrated in a very seamless and creative way.
Overall, with all the positive aspects mentioned above, I think this game's major drawback is lack of undertones and variety - both gameplay-wise and visual style/story-wise.

The game stops accepting user keyboard input sometimes. Game breaking bug. Fun still but this needs to be fixed.

If it's an issue related to the gun, it should be fixed.

I like this a lot but I keep on getting stuck in the scene where it explains how I am near being harvested for energy for the Sun God dude and I can't get out, is that supposed to happen or is there something glitching? I respect the ideology of the game, I think it's very cool actually, but I keep getting stuck and I have NO CLUE what is going on. Help?
Otherwise this is really cool and especially the graphics are awesome! :)

Carrill responds:

Rapidly press the left and right keys to escape the hold of the wires.

getting the disobey achivemetnt is way too hard

Carrill responds:

You probably missed a command.

Just for guidance, there are three commands to disobey in the level where you first meet Gomadi. After that, there are two commands. After that, there are two commands again.
