Outland
 
Has anyone else played this game? I played the trial and thought it was fantastic. It's kind of like Metroid/Castlevania meets Limbo, or something. It's so much fun, and the like the art style is awesome

Yes, I have it. It's really nice, the backgrounds in the levels remind me of Oddworld a bit and it's quite fun. Still haven't beat it yet, but I've beaten 2 bosses already.

It looks interesting as a 2D platformer, I'd like to try it at some point. It's a shame the storyline appears to be typical and run-of-the-mill, judging from what its trailers say about it.

I tried the demo and disliked it a lot. The placement of lasers/force fields in a fucking tribal setting/jungle is fucking stupid. And it just sort of seems like people are trying to cash in on the Limbo/Braid fad now.

I dunno, I thought it was pretty fun. But I agree with what you said about the Limbo/Braid fad. Still, it's a pretty fun game, and I think I'll be purchasing it.

I thought it was nice that they priced it 800MSP and not the usual 1200MSP nowadays.

This thread is not about Outcast or Outwars.

I am disappoint.
