Dust: An Elysian Tail (XBLA) review

[MisterBubbles]

4200 is 31 quid

Just played through the demo (Don't have any points yet). Will definitely be buying this, very cool.

Just finished this on the pc. gorgeous game, but the combat isn't as deep as it think it is and gets really monotonous towards the end of the game. The story is utter garbage and character motivations don't get explained or elaborated on. It ends on a big F-U. The main character is voiced by the creator, which i think is just a massive self indulgent wank if i ever thought possible.

5/10

I bought this on 360 after liking the demo. Became very bored with it very quickly and never went back to it. Gorgeous looking though.

i thought the game was made almost single handed? i just though he voiced it to cut costs

[SuperBeatBoy]

Regardless. Really self indulgent and a mediocre game.

No, it isn't. Noogy did everything except the music, and he didn't contribute any voice acting whatsoever.

[SuperBeatBoy]

I stand corrected could have sworn he done it. Never mind. Doesn't change what I feel about the rest of the game though.

Played a couple of hours last night (6 quid on steam) and I love it. Fidget makes me laugh. Especially the resi 4 remark.

An interesting article is now available here: http://www.gamasutra.com/view/featur...arts_dust_.php

The game has now sold to 1 million units.

yeah, Noogy had posted something about passing 1 million units on Twitter. Excellent news and well worth it. The Gamasutra article is great too.
