Failsafe

Post by Sebastian Lawe »

Just recently found out about this game on Kickstarter. It looks amazing, and its only got 7 days left to be backed.

It looks like a mix between Mirrors Edge and Legend Of Zelda Ocarina Of Time

I know this is an indie title and I know graphics is less important than gameplay...

But, I think animations are significantly more important than graphics quality. You can have super awful graphics but good animation that makes up for it. Unfortunately, all the actual gameplay I saw was... well kinda awkward. Indie-studio quality. Which is fine for minecraft, but for a game primarily about movement, the movement needs to be darn good.

And like... everything is just a flat color... Maybe that's the "look they were going for," but to me that look screams low-quality-indie-game-made-in-unity.

Even just a little color and some textures in the right places would go a long way.

EDIT: The comparison to Wind Waker is unfair, they had a team of professional artists and level designers being paid for their full time work. My point remains though.

I wish there was a Zelda maker for the wii u where you can make a nes or snes style world with dungeons and stuff. I know there is zquest but that tool is kinda dead.
I think I am flying?
