If so, did you enjoy it?<br /><br /><br />I ask because it's one of those games I definitely want to get after I buy a Vita--as long as people don't tell me it's a waste of time, etc.<br /><br /><br />Anyway, yes, I can see how this game reminds of Dokuro--I thought the same thing myself the first time I saw this trailer. I do hope there are some differences between the two, though; it would be too bad if they were overly similar, IMO. <br /><br /><br />Oh, and I, too, love that the game's genre is described as "light and shadow action game." Wow, so helpful! ;Pthegaygamer.comhttp://www.thegaygamer.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-21121736835813425372014-04-14T22:29:58.230-07:002014-04-14T22:29:58.230-07:00Ah, this looks so interesting!

I keep thinking it's like Dokuro but instead of having a little skeleton solve puzzles to rescue a princess, we've now got a firefly guiding a little girl. The light/dark switching might add more variety to it if it is a puzzle-like game... I'm really just drawing on the obvious similarities between the two, though, it's probably not as related to Dokuro as I'm inclined to think<br /><br /><br />The game information at 2:37 describes it as a "light and shadow action game" which is oh so helpful, hahaapricotsushinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-10325117047820380552014-04-11T19:19:27.667-07:002014-04-11T19:19:27.667-07:00Yep, me, too.

For instance, Dokuro seems to have a bit more depth than what has been implied here, so I'm hoping this game at least matches that game's ambition, if not surpasses it.thegaygamer.comhttp://www.thegaygamer.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-59671304502454064522014-04-10T13:30:17.745-07:002014-04-10T13:30:17.745-07:00Well hopefully you're right, and there is more...Well hopefully you're right, and there is more than meets the eye here. But even if it just plays like an easier version of the Prinny games, I'd be totally fine with that. My guess is that (knowing Japan) the rating you saw would be for blood/gore/violence. They're a lot more touchy about that stuff then we are, so it may not even be that bad. I wouldn't be surprised if we see that innocent little girl suffering all kinds of gruesome deaths (or inflicting it on others). And just the fact that it's a little girl (and not an adult) might make it worse.Obscure Video Gamesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-20231355276071315552014-04-10T13:00:12.169-07:002014-04-10T13:00:12.169-07:00Agreed all around, finchiekins :) I also really li...Agreed all around, finchiekins :) I also really like the music that plays throughout this trailer!thegaygamer.comhttp://www.thegaygamer.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-4686069532418523472014-04-10T12:59:34.212-07:002014-04-10T12:59:34.212-07:00Well, not to be snarky, but I don't think Sili...Well, not to be snarky, but I don't think Siliconera knows much more about how this game plays than anyone else out there. Yes, the game features touch controls and a light/dark mechanic, but other than that the folks at NIS have been pretty tight-lipped about its content. <br /><br /><br />For instance, why has it basically been given a "mature" rating? Nothing we've seen so far suggests the game will be overly violent or pervy--although the bit of gameplay that can be found on the game's official site points to the fact that the protagonist can, in fact, die or be killed. <br /><br /><br />I guess what I'm saying here is that I wouldn't go so far as to describe the game as a "pretty basic 2D puzzle platformer" just yet. Yes, that's probably what it'll be in the end, but we definitely don't know that right now based on the little official info we've been given.thegaygamer.comhttp://www.thegaygamer.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-25259412181896529782014-04-10T12:53:49.104-07:002014-04-10T12:53:49.104-07:00That really looks so nice.

But it's NIS, it's gorgeous, and we're almost guaranteed to get it in the US. So if they can inject their trademark sense of humor into it, then I'm definitely getting it.Obscure Video Gamesnoreply@blogger.com
