Indie developers were meant to bring new and innovative games to the world. This must be the umpteenth game like this...

Dark backgrounds, eerie ambient noise, small open areas to move around in, and BORING.

There are SO MANY games like this from indie developers on PC, PS3, XBOX, and even mobile platforms that the indie scene has literally taken the side scroller and ruined it. It's like they all got together and shared the same source code and just pumped these horrible games out by the dozen, hoping nostalgic players would buy them for a taste of something they used to love.

Instead, we get boring drivel like this. I can't even go into much detail about this because there's not much to say. It's a straightforward side scroller with little to no action, easy puzzles and boring gameplay. Avoid this game and those like it. They offer very little in stimulation when it comes to fun gameplay.

If you're jonesing for some great side scroller action, get out your emulator on your PC/Mac, or mobile device, (jailbroken for you poor poor iPhone users) and have some fun.
