Completed 100% PROS + cool cartoon art + cool music + hot character design CONS - not enough check points, with zero compensation, no map update after dying - no balloons after boss fights - controls feel a bit clunky, not so smooth - too much talking than showing characters - somewhat unintuitive obstacle remover - why no faster movement upgrade -- no map markers Score : 73%, B-tier Metroidvania
Fearmonium is a bit rough around the edges, but worth picking up for a weekend play through. I was able to complete the game with 100% achievements in a single play in about 14 hours. The story is pretty dark, but gets more inspirational as you go. I liked the old-cartoon style art and appreciated the pinup girl look to a lot of the characters. Gameplay is fairly standard for a metroidvania - nothing really groundbreaking in the puzzle or general game formula. The controls are a bit clunky, but feel a lot better once you have picked up the dash and jump abilities. Where this game does very well is the music. Each area has its own track and many moments in the game I just stopped for a minute to listen to the bass thump. This was especially true in a few of the boss battles - that music really got me into it! Give it a try - it is a relatively inexpensive game and goes on sale pretty often. I found it well worth the price.
This seems like a 'unique' kind of game, for lack of better words. You're playing as a growing clown psychosis, infecting the mind of a child. There's some really interesting trivia on memory and fears, it's kinda inspiring. The game doesn't have a complicated gameplay and, while more could have been done, it's relatively pleasant for a metroidvania based on collectables and return to previously explored areas. The music is purposedly unnerving and circus-like, with darker moments that remind you it's supposedly 'a horror themed game' (technically... I guess). Still, it's rather enjoyable so far. Perhaps the basic attack rate should have been increased cuz the animation eats up too many frames when you'd like to get that second shot right away, especially on the cart areas. All in all, if you're a horror fanatic, you'll appreciate it.
It's okay. Not the best metroidvania I've played, but it's not the worst either. For complaints, the obvious one is - why is there a stamina meter? Why is dashing as much as I want not allowed? It doesn't really make the platforming challenges more difficult, it just makes it so you have to wait for your meter to fully recharge before moving on. You can quick recharge by hitting a clown face, but....doesn't that seem awkward? Stopping the game to whale on a clown face for a few seconds before continuing? And what if there isn't one around? You just have to stand there doing nothing for 10s. It's stupid. The stamina meter has no purpose but to annoy you. For Bosses? Not really. I never had a boss fight where I got caught off guard by a low stamina meter, but ended up falling in pits every so often as I stupidly dashed trying to backtrack through a level. And the delay on item usage? What's the point? Items are so slow I just ignored them outside of solving puzzles. They're already weaker than your regular attack, but now there's a 2s delay between shots? You're giving me a round of 100 rockets, they're not rare. I don't think I ever needed to buy more ammo from how pointless it felt to use these things. Just use the hammer.
