Planet of Lana

A gorgeous platformer that looks like a back-to-back collection of top-rated desktop backgrounds. A joy to look at and run around in, even if the gameplay mechanics aren't inventing anything new. Controls well, plays well, a solid decent game all around, nothing much negative to say. Recommend if you enjoy playing pretty platformers with puzzley elements.

Such a beautiful game, and the soundtrack is absolutely stunning. The puzzles were on the easier side and not particularly challenging, but I still liked it. And I kept hoping the cat would be okay.

what a beautiful game. seriously, this is one of the best looking games i've played in a long while. the puzzles aren't too complicated, so this is the kind of game you can play with a beer or two and just chill. The only thing I wish they'd done differently was build up the bond between the characters before everything goes to ♥♥♥♥. i didn't really have much attachment to them, and then suddenly everyone gets kidnapped and I'm supposed to run across the world looking for them. also maybe a button to completely hide the entire hud. the game also has a few scenes where it really makes you feel small and insignificant, like you're just another speck in the world instead of the typical larger-than-life hero. even though you do eventually become the "hero" who puts an end to everything, i liked that unique feeling of being a spec in big world. the little companion monkey-dog thing is probably the best character in the game, and i want one irl. i also love how simple and easy to use they made commanding it. i do believe it should've stayed dead, though. a worthy sacrifice.
