Mr. Beaver’s profile
Games are something I can still enjoy, so I take the opportunity while I can.
English is not my native language, and I use a translator, so I apologize in advance for the strange verbal constructions.

Reflections on art, wrapped in a cozy surreal shell with Guitar Heroes; with characters and scenery, for the creation of which they had to rob the nearest stationery store; with your own hand clutching a hammer and smashing everything around you; with art in Paint; with a dark future, an odd present and a bunch of other great strange things.
Absolute cinema.
Please don't ignore it (especially if you like rhythm games and/or story-driven indie games)

The main character of this game seems to be afraid of being alone in silence with herself. Or she may be afraid that you will be alone in silence with yourself. That’s why she speaks. Constantly. Without shutting up. And she’s a teenager, which means she’s all edgy, with a sharp tongue, against the whole world, you know.
So, in this game there is a level in the sewer, and one of the passages is blocked by sewage flowing down. And the main character, Little Red Riding Hood, sees this nuisance and says: “Cut the crap! I mean it!”
And in this game there is a level where you need to jump on platforms. The platforms on this level are pieces of earth and rocks floating in the air, some of them move there from side to side on their own. And the main character jumps onto one such piece of rock, flies up on it and then says: “Thanks for the ride! You rock!”
I love terrible puns, but there’s a limit to everything.
It’s okay. But, I must note, collectively translating the leaked pre-release build and arguing about whose version of the phrase was better was more fun than actually playing the game.

You will learn all the mechanics of this game, because you will be tested on your knowledge of each one, and if you have not mastered something, you'll have to learn it right during the exam. Fun and annoying at the same time. You will learn It Has To Be This Way by heart, even if you have never heard it before. Recommend it.
Not a bad Portal-like, especially considering that the game was developed by just one person. In terms of storytelling, unfortunately, it doesn’t stand up to any comparison with Portal, so you start to get tired of it even faster than Portal 2 (and they are about the same in length). The horrible tenth act (there are fifteen in total), in which the emphasis is on platforming, which is why you find a complete solution to the chamber in two minutes and half an hour trying to jump to the desired surface, doesn’t really help. As well as a bunch of small bugs of varying degrees of nastyness that appear here and there. One time the game decided that it was too easy for me, and did not spawn the item needed to solve the puzzle. By some miracle I managed to find an alternative way of passing, but yes, the impressions were spoiled.
But overall it’s a pretty pleasant and varied puzzle without terribly illogical segments. I liked that the test chambers were mixed with more dynamic staged sequences and that new mechanics were introduced throughout the game. If you want something Portal-like, then The Entropy Center is a good option.
Did you know that Remedy developed Alan Wake? You know, Alan Wake? About the writer Alan Wake? He’s like, “It’s not a lake, it’s an ocean!” About this Alan Wake? Yes, they made a game about Alan Wake, yes, about that same Alan Wake. It’s called Alan Wake. It’s about the writer Alan Wake. You’ve probably heard about it, it’s about the writer Alan Wake. It’s not a lake, it’s an ocean. Alan Wake, that was the game. It was developed by Remedy, Sam Lake, you probably know Sam Lake. He is also a writer, just like Alan Wake, the main character of the game Alan Wake. It was developed by Remedy, in case you didn’t know. It’s about the writer, Alan Wake. It’s called Alan Wake. Just a reminder in case you forgot or didn’t know. Alan Wake. It’s not a lake, it’s an ocean. Alan Wake. This is a game from Remedy.
Not as bad as I expected, but still very weak. There are no memorable moments. The levels in space and underwater differ from each other and the other levels only in that they are in space and underwater. The story campaign doesn’t even have an ending. Pretty meh, even by the standards of the series.
This is a game made for the PSP and it shows. It’s great if you play it in small portions, but if you try to binge-play it, it quickly becomes monotonous and tiring. The primitive story and less-than-ideal platforming don’t really help.
This game needs The Last of Us combat, more carnage, and a decent writer (Rhianna Pratchett is a genius, I’ve rarely seen dialogue THAT sketchy). Jumping, shooting and grunting are generally fun, but nothing sticks in your memory after beating it.
Game of the year. Game of all years.
