Oct. 2024

One of Those single-dev indie games, the ones that take a concept and run with it for the entire duration. This time around, the idea is pretty simple: first-person precision platforming, and the twist is that it’s actually good. The actual platforming mechanics feel just right—the momentum, the speed, the air control; and the picks offer some degree of lenience for the jumps you end up missing, at least in the easier/more relaxed sections. Getting that aspect right is especially important considering that the moveset on the player’s part is quite limited, and most of the challenge presented comes from the level design. The setting and the atmosphere are also quite enticing—the megastructure is appropriately mega, the sense of scale being imposed on the player constantly and making up a perfect backdrop for climbing around the actual level geometry as opposed to pre-determined jump and grab spots. Lorn’s Lure definitely has intended progression paths mapped out with specifically designed challenges and navigation puzzles, and is not about open-ended exploration; and yet, it still manages to evoke the feeling of outplaying the game, being somewhere you aren’t supposed to be—almost like scuttling around out of bounds. For my taste, it also looks great visually, the title drop moments in every level especially making me stop and appreciate the view pretty much every single time. In the interest of fairness, I want to mention that puzzle design (including even visual clarity, with some textures in the tail end of the game becoming confusing to read) can be inconsistent in the later levels, and the structure also loses some of its mystique as you progress, but overall, I still had a good time even with some of my less favorite sections and levels. Like most platformers, this one can also get pretty difficult (really difficult if you’re trying to collect all the crystals and do the optional stages, which I would personally strongly recommend) and frustrating. Whether or not this is enjoyable or desirable is going to vary from one person to another, but I, myself, being bad at video games, have spent multiple hours on some of the bonus levels. If you’re just trying to progress through the base game ignoring the collectibles, however, it shouldn’t present too much of a challenge as there are plentiful checkpoints throughout the game, barring a few specific sections serving as difficulty spikes. This is where I would usually recommend the game if you enjoy first-person platformers, but honestly, I can’t think of anything else I would put in the same category as Lorn’s Lure. Games like Mirror’s Edge and Downfall, while probably qualifying as platformers, focus more on parkour and flow than precise jumps, and don't really offer the same experience. So instead, I would just pitch it to people who enjoy fluid first-person movement and like the idea of a game structured entirely around it.

Oct. 2024

This is probably the first time the absolute last level made me almost do a 180 turn on my opinion of the game. The game never presents itself as a rage-bait geometry dash style game, and after 7 levels of precision platforming and pure movement bliss it just shits on what it did in the previous levels and starts off as a whole different genre. I'm sorry, but this just purely isn't for me -> the last level in the game is made for a completely different audience than the first 7 levels. Also, to add; the developer lists the following features: > It's a tough game, but not frustrating! Mistakes are not punished by redoing lengthy sections. > Play fast or slow. Take in the sights as you traverse, or play as fast as a speed runner. These are completely invalidated for the last level Despite that, I can't find it in my heart to keep the review as a negative; even after 2 years of wait

Oct. 2024

I'm sorry but that last level is straight up insufferable when listening to that song and having to restart 200 times. That said the game is really good and delivers a very unique experience. I found the ending to be underwhelming but the lore is intriguing.

You look at the video and descriptions on this steam page and think you know what this game is: a moody FPS platformer. But it doesn’t capture how you’ll hold your breath and bhole tight every time you careen at free fall speed onto a half a foot wide rusted pipe. Or how you’ll look back up or down at the skyscraper sized mega structure you just ascended or descended and feel a deep sense of accomplishment. Or the preemptive defeat at confronting a challenge that feels impossible. From melancholy to frustration to triumph, there is so much to feel in what is easy to write off as a FP jumping game. And yes, this is a hard game. The difficulty is offset by a generous checkpoint system but still spikes in difficulty at times. I do get the sense that the difficulties people experience in the 3rd and the final 2 chapters partially stem from the game maybe being too obtuse in how it teaches its jump tech. There is a strength here though as playing becomes a process of constantly reevaluating and surpassing what you thought was possible. And possibilities here extend beyond the game but to you as a player. It’s frustrating at times but more often than not worth it for the immense satisfaction you’ll get from surprising yourself. The challenge isn’t just all about dexterity though. Lorn mostly understands that what makes climbing and parkour interesting is finding the line, a juicy puzzle that feels organic and open ended. And in its best moments progress feels less like rote memorization (3rd and final chapter excluded) and more like a deepening of your skills and observation. The parkour systems makes the game really good, but it’s how these systems come together with the art direction, light narrative, and music into a singular vision that make Lorn’s Lure great. There’s not much like locking in and taking in the moody vibes as you traverse the corpse of this beautifully forsaken world.

Sept. 2024

I'd feel terrible leaving a negative review, however there are some things I definitely didn't enjoy. First of all, the game is way more linear than how it looks, it isn't really about exploration as much as it is about precision parkour. The fall damage mechanic is frustratingly punishing and most of the levels you'll just die repeatedly until you understand exactly what the game wants you to do.
