[Short Review]
A Short and Flawed yet Cute and somewhat entertaining Game. Too bad it slightly falls short of a recommendation.

[Long Review]
I wanted to recommend this game. At the beginning I was enjoying myself, however during the late game and Achievement Hunting this games cracks started to show. In the beginning this game was kinda fun I enjoyed going through Procedurally Generated dungeons in First Person killing charmingly animated enemies with only a stick it was interesting. However it was the repetition that worn me down. The Combat wasn't good but serviceable it was hard to tell the distance between you and the enemy. This made it hard to avoid damage in some cases. I admit there was a Dot that changes color when near an Attackable or Interactible Object however it was too small and wasn't enough to determine distance. The Procedural Generation wasn't varied enough creating stages that were exactly the same as other runs. The Stage Design combined with the Procedural Generation wasn't engaging enough to keep the gameplay interesting. The Game lacked enough Enemy Variety to keep the gameplay engaging and challenging boiling down to samey boring gameplay on repeated playthroughs. The Boss variety was also not very good with about Three different Boss encounters in all. The Story wasn't great or In-depth which would be fine, but the Characters lacked the Personality and Characterisation to carry it or match the Art-Style. More Character Dialogue sequences and Interactions would have went a long way towards fleshing out these characters. Lastly the Support Characters are pretty OP. I guess this was an over compensation for your character being a kid with a stick. There could have been more strategy implemented in the combat to keep it interesting. Overall Away was a charming game with a charming Art-Style but the constant replaying of levels for Unlockables and Achievements dragged the gameplay down. I honestly hope these Game Developers try again. This game was very unique with a charming Art-Style.

Easy yet Tedious 😕

Super Kiwi 64 is a short yet fun indie game that's a callback to the N64 days. I wish there were more Enemies, Bosses, and NPCs to interact with. Hopefully we'll be able to play Super Kiwi 64 2!

Pro Tips:
1) Upgrade dash and jump first!
2) In the first level, hit all the trees and kill all the enemies! You should have a total of 6895 orbs!

Caster is a good game for only 1.99. It’s definitely nothing great but you can definitely get some fun out of it. If your new to PC gaming and your not fully adjusted to keyboard controls this game is definitely a good place to start. This is an indie game so I don’t expect much from this game, but the graphics are nothing to cry home about. I understand the person was trying to go for a PS1 type look but it needs refinement. Also a story though not necessary would have helped this game out a bit. My final score is as follows.
