March 2025

Having played Islets first, I wanted to go back and see Kyle Thompson's first game, and I'm glad I did! It is definitely smaller in scope, but it moves along pretty quickly. Levels are fun, writing is cute, music is pretty great but limited. Excited to check out Crypt Custodian now!

Feb. 2025

It all started with the game Islets, which I got for free on the Epic Store, which I was absolutely delighted with - I liked everything about it, beautiful graphics, great music, an incredibly fun metroidvania with a great setting, and all this magic is created by Kyle Thompson! Then I bought Crypt Custodian on Steam, because I wanted to continue the wonderful metroidvania series, and I got an even better sequel to Islets - Crypt Custodian had all the same cool elements of the game, which Kyle Thompson improved to a shine! And in the end, I decided that I had to buy and try the first game by Kyle Thompson, the game with which it all started, the game SHEEPO. I did not have high expectations from the game, since I understood that this was the first project, and it would most likely be many times worse than the other two polished projects, which I had already managed to complete 100%. And most likely it will not be a delight, but I thought about at least not being disappointed ... Oh, how wrong I was! SHEEPO may not be perfect, but it is great, and is every bit as good as any other Kyle Thompson game, and I had a ton of fun playing it 100%!!! It has everything I loved about the other games, great atmosphere, cool gameplay and setting, secrets, great level map, cool metroidvania, music, fun trophies... SHEEPO is a great little diamond in the crown of Kyle Thompson games! I recommend it to all fans of metroidvania and the author of the games, Kyle Thompson! ============================================================================= Все началось с игры Islets, которая досталась бесплатно по акции в Epic Store, от которой я был в диком восторге - мне в ней понравилось все, красивая графика, отличная музыка, невероятно веселая метроидвания с отличным сеттингом, и все это чудо творит Kyle Thompson ! Потом я купил Crypt Custodian уже в Steam, потому что и дальше хотел продолжения замечательной серии метроидвании, и я получил еще более лучшее продолжение игры Islets - в Crypt Custodian были все те же классные элементы игры, которые Kyle Thompson улучшил до блеска! И в конце концов решил, что надо купить и попробовать первую игру Kyle Thompson, ту игру, с которой все началось, с игры SHEEPO. Я не строил больших ожиданий от игры, так как понимал, что это первый проект, и она скорее всего будет в разы хуже двух других отполированных проектов, которые я уже успел пройти на 100%. И скорее всего это будет не восторг, но думал о том, чтобы хоть не разочароваться... О как же ошибался! SHEEPO может не идеальная, но она великолепна, и ни чуть не уступает другим играм от Kyle Thompson, и я получил тонну удовольствия от прохождения игры на 100%!!! В ней есть все то, за что я полюбил другие игры, отличная атмосфера, прикольный gameplay и сеттинг, секреты, отличная карта уровней, классная метроидвания, музыка, забавные трофеи... SHEEPO замечательный маленький бриллиант, в короне игр Kyle Thompson! Рекомендую всем любителям метроидвании и автора игр Kyle Thompson!

I've just finished this game, it's the last one for me from all Kyle Thompson's games and his first game actually. I was though that it's just a simple first try with not so high quality... But I was completely wrong!! It's a great game with Kyle's original humor and with such a great gameplay, and it's again something new!!! I don't know how Kyle can do such great games. Of course it's metroidvania again but with original idea of transformations... I love it, thank you for all your games, Kyle, they all are special!! Please support such creators, they deserve it!! And definitely try other Kyle's games - Crypt Custodian and Islets, they are awesome!!!

Dec. 2024

I played Crypt Custodian and loved it, so I had to check out Kyle Thompson's other games and this one did not disappoint either. Much smaller in overall size, but very enjoyable. Now the obvious thing to do is play Islets and finish the trio.

Oct. 2024

A really solid, short metroidvania. I highly recommend newcomers and fans of the genre alike try this one out. And if you end up being a fan, you'll be happy to hear that Islets (2nd metroidvania by the same dev) is also a delight and a much longer experience and I've heard great things, but haven't yet played, Crypt Custodian
