Evoland

Okay, I haven't got far beyond acquiring 3D mode, so this isn't an entirely complete review. I will make a follow up if I need to comment on the rest of the game.

As for the amount I have played, I really like it. After playing DLC quest, the idea of collecting gameplay features is not a new one, but still a somewhat novel idea of doing things. Even if it is just a Zelda/Final Fantasy mashup-parody thing, it's rather good at what it is.

Another good point is that Evoland is written in Haxe - a cross-platform language that I need to learn at some point. So automatically it can run on all three major systems (or it would, if there weren't a particular library issue with Linux)

Annoyingly, I don't see that it's something I'll be replaying anytime soon - it's nice but as a single experience only. I'm also quite glad I got it in the Humble Bundle - doubt I could have justified paying full-price. It's pretty fun, but I try to pay more for games that I'm likely to play more than once.
