I am so glad for the "story mode"

[Luna Starshine]

Hello devs.

I want to tell you my gratitude for you guys to add a "none combat" option to the game.

Yes, I am playing the game on the adventure mode and I dont require a story mode, but I am still glad you did because I do love games being accessable for all "skill" levels.

I use story mode =D and thank you for the nice words it means a lot!

I'm also glad for the story mode! Without it I may have dropped the game at the first boss fight. I love the story, I love the art of this game, but I have a bit of patience (and time) issue, having this mode helped a lot!

Without the story mode, I wouldn’t have made it through more than 1/3rd of the game 🗿
I’m not motorically skilled, and never will be, despite having played video games for 30 years. Back in those days, I would just get stuck somewhere, and that was it. I basically never finished a game and missed out on a lot of the content.

Really glad I could play through this whole gorgeous game :) Just like Gris, it has great replayability, and I’ll come back to it a lot, whenever I want to play something beautiful.

I'm also super happy about the story mode. All games with lore and story deserve to be experienced by everyone regardless of skill level or their desire for combat at any given moment.

Story mode is awesome. I started out in Adventure Mode but got tired of the death screen. So far, story mode has enabled me to enjoy the game much more.

Having said this, there are still some very difficult (for me) timed precision platform sections (like the end of Fall Part 1) that are really a struggle. Perhaps story mode could be slightly more forgiving in these areas? After countless failed attempts at climbing this tree, may I suggest that a save point (or two) be added to the journey up. Perhaps when you catch up with Neva? Starting over on this tedious and difficult section every time you miss a jump is wearing very thin. I am about to recognize that I may not be able to finish this game... Sigh...

I totally agree. I have made 50-ish attempts climbing the tree over the past couple of days and have still not been able to complete the climb. I am on the verge of giving up :-(

After about 90 minutes of trying tonight, I decided to make one last run before giving up altogether. Amazingly, I made the last three jumps without the black stuff catching up with me and got to the top of tree. What a terrible ordeal...

At the risk of sounding rude... The jumps aren't -that- tight. They aren't -that- hard. I think you might be stressing yourselves out and that is causing you to make mistakes. Missing a jump will kill you but it's not like it's pixel perfect or anything. If you just go through the game like normal then you should be able to manage.

At some point beating a game is about overcoming obstacles and not having the game adjust to you.

That's just my two cents...
