    Default Apotheon



    I'm not even a fan of platform games, but this title looks phenomenal. Has anyone here played it yet?

    Yes. The art style is simply awesome. But the combat is silly. I would have loved it if it had turn-based / active-time combat system.

    I got it today on PSN for free and I played about 10-15 minutes of it earlier and it was enjoyable. I will pick it up again probably tomorrow. The art really is awesome and I agree the combat is a bit off but I don't agree turn based combat would make it better...mostly because I hate turn based gameplay lol

    I've been keeping an eye on this for a month or so, probably going to get it at some point. I've mostly been waiting for reviews and stuff before spending money on it, but I might just pick it up either way

    I have bought it today and i have finished the 1st level; the art and the music are awesome, the combat system seems ok to me, the only thing that made me laugh at the start was the character moving backwards because of the mouse control. The game is really fun especially for those who like greek mythology; personally i hope the will add a level editor in a patch

    I've played about an hour of it now, it's quite enjoyable. The missile controls on PC feel a bit wonky, it's just something I'll have to get used to I guess. The artstyle is amazing though, really nice to look at, and the game plays pretty fine despite the wonkiness.

    I imagine the combat will play better with a controller. I will never know

    It's a pretty challenging game. I really dig the art style.

    Very nice game. Old 2D platformer with enchanting picture.
    Especially it's good in multiplayer fun - bloody, fast, Hellenistic!

    A nice breath of fresh air considering 90% of indie games seem to have some horrible cartoonish style. This really shows creativity with 2D graphics.
