Drew And The Floating Labyrinth Activation Code [Keygen]

Updated: Mar 25, 2020





















































About This Game "I just want to go home..." A hand-drawn 3D third-person puzzle-platformer. Control Drew, a lost young girl trying to find her way back home, through a series of abstract levels requiring you to use clues in the environment to find invisible paths, gaining color to her black-and-white character as you progress. Featuring traditional animation in a fully third-person 3D environment, showing the possibilities of image-based animation (not relying on 3D models) in any type of game. Basic, challenging, yet not frustrating, requiring patience and observation. Consists of short invisible platforming levels using a variety of visual clues to help the player find their way to the end of each environment, requiring you to look before you leap. Simple story leading to an emotional conclusion. 6d5b4406ea Title: Drew and the Floating LabyrinthGenre: Adventure, IndieDeveloper:Dust Scratch GamesPublisher:Dust Scratch GamesRelease Date: 4 Feb, 2015 Drew And The Floating Labyrinth Activation Code [Keygen] drew and the floating labyrinth. drew and the floating labyrinth Finicky.Artsy.Unengaging.Tutorial hints occur only after you've figured out how to work things.And the audio is way too loud.It'd make a good children's first puzzler-platformer, I suppose.. The biggest enemies in this game are the sluggish menu and the lack of proper camera controls. I can rotate the camera 360 and yet lock it in only 4 points?Also depressing as all heck.. Drew and the Floating Labyrinth has its faults, but overall I think it is a lovely little game.The story is melancholy, so you have to be in a contemplative mood to fully enjoy it, but it is written surprisingly well for an indie game and is accompanied wonderfully by Incompetech's music that is used liberally throughout. The minimalist graphics are very well done and suit the story beautifully.The game is relatively short -- I finished it completely in less than two hours, with the rest of my playtime being a wait for the trading cards to drop -- but I found it pleasant and enjoyable throughout that time, with only a couple of minor greivances: a single 'freeze' that required a visit to Task Manager, and the very slow transitions between levels and the menu system.I wouldn't recommend buying this game at full price, but I would certaily recommend picking it up on sale or, as I did, as part of a bundle.. Well....It's a fairly interesting puzzle platform game (yes, platform, not platformer). If you think you would enjoy a puzzle game in which you are trying to use clues to traverse a path of blocks, I do recommend it. I enjoyed it, with the exception of one of the levels which had absolutely no way to "solve" it without simply doing trial-and-error and falling again and again.That brings me to the first complaint I had. The companion Drew has helping her through this puzzle space is very willing to tell you the advice for the current sequence of stages. The first time he says "shadows can tell you something about your surroundings" [slightly paraphrased], it's helpful... the eighth time he says the same thing, I started having flashbacks to Zelda OOT's Navi "Hey Listen!". This could be solved by putting an option to turn off the random "help" in the options, but the option screen is somewhat bare, with no option to turn off the repetitive comments.My second issue: Its length. This game is very short. I completed the whole game blind [no previous information] in 90 minutes, which is actually much shorter than how long it took to download the game (how is this game so big and so short?). Anyway, that's really just a minor issue in my book, but I figure I should mention it just in case it's important to you.My third issue: Every time you finish a level, which in some cases can be <15 seconds, it sends you back to the level selection screen. This seems fairly redundant, as unless you want to skip levels (and make the game even shorter!), you'll just be going to the next level. It makes the game feel less like a contiguous story and more like a free flash game you would play online.Again, I do recommend it, as long as you're in the target audience. The first and third issues above could theoretically be fixed by a small patch. The second could make-or-break-it for you, but I find length less important than other issues.. This game is very minimal but also very clever. The levels are mazes made of invisible floating platforms. As you try to figure out where the path is you will be mentaly challenged and take a leap of faith with every step. That is the story of this game it is minimal, the graphics are nothing special, and this is the first game of an small development team. Yet if you take a leap of faith with it you will not regret the purchase. It has clever and challenging puzzles, unique mechanics, and an effective story.. amazing game and fun gameplay the game style very awesome9/10 :). I like puzzle games, but this is just tedious path finding. I got bored after just the first few levels.Looking round the edge of each block to see where you can move next is not interesting. Just dull.. This game is very minimal but also very clever. The levels are mazes made of invisible floating platforms. As you try to figure out where the path is you will be mentaly challenged and take a leap of faith with every step.

Thumbs down to Doodles Navigating a Sidewalk: the Videogame!Okay, okay. That was uncalled for. Actually, Drew and the Floating Labyrinth does a few things well, but not enough to recommend it to most people and certainly not for anything approaching the eight dollar asking price. Floating Labyrinth is a puzzle game in which you attempt to navigate a path of floating cubes obscured by various visual tricks. The puzzles are largely well designed with each unique trick having 10 short levels dedicated to it, which - with the exception of a few outliars - increase in difficulty from a tutorial level to a fairly complex challenge that will take your average adult player a few goes to get right. It all comes together in the last approximately 20 levels where all the various visual conundrums are combined to good effect. For the most part, Floating Labyrinth never feels too easy or controller-snappingly difficult, though there were a fair amount that I ended up solving by tricky jumps rather than actually using logic and a few that are less puzzles than they are exercises in patience. One could argue the biggest drawback of the puzzling in Drew is its small offering of gameplay. Now, 80 levels sounds like a good deal on paper, but when you ignore levels that are purely vehicles for the story and effortless tutorial levels, it feels short. I finished the game completely in less than two hours of casual play. If the quality of the game is dragged down by its length, perhaps it could bring a strong story and visual style to the table. If it did, 60 or so competently designed levels might even be a perfect length; ending before the game overstays its welcome. Unfortunately, while the minimalist sketch-like visuals and use of color are pleasing to the eye, the narrative framework is weak. You play as a young girl seeking a way home, guided only by a soothing voice revealed to belong to a bird that offers periodic (and just a bit too repetitive) advice. Already we have the indie formula of "small child navigates a bleak, frightening world," so it's fair to say there will be a loss of innocence and possibly some kind of twist or pseudo-philosophical pretensions. Yes, Floating Labyrinth did indeed hit evey branch on its fall out of the indie tree, and basic awareness of "artsy" games will leave you feeling a bit blas\u00e9 at the end; exactly the opposite of the emotional impact the game is fishing for. Ultimately, though, I believe the narrative fails because it lacks the dialogue-free story open to interpretation of something like Limbo, nor does it offer enough to characterize Drew, her guide, and their relationship as done right by, say, Portal. The dialogue between them consists of only a handful of vague sentences for the entire first half of the game and I just never felt invested.Technically, Drew is okay. It does noticably lack polish that quickly identifies it as being largely the work of one man; I assume a student showing off the culmination of all their hard work. You can tell by minor things like the inability to rebind keys after launching the game and an entirely royalty-free soundtrack (which is very samey between levels). That said, it played fine, I encountered no bugs, and it looks genuinely good.So by now you might be thinking, "if the game has some good puzzles and a unique visual style, surely it's still worth my time?" Well, no. I can't really recommend it on that alone. Sure, some puzzle aficionados or lovers of good art design might enjoy Drew, but at the end of the day it's a middling experience. And it's a middling experience being offered for more money than better indie puzzlers, as well as some free ones. I'd place Floating Labyrinth above something you get for free to play on your phone, but sadly, only just. I'd get this game for maybe one or two dollars tops to enjoy the bite of artsy puzzling goodness it offers, but I'd suggest you leave off otherwise.I do hope we see more from Dust Scratch Games in the future, though. With more amibitous writing, a little more polish, and a willingness to keep trying new ideas, the result could be a great game.Gosh, this was a dull review. Let's try this: I'm giving this game the bird because that's all it gave me!. This game is very minimal but also very clever. The levels are mazes made of invisible floating platforms. As you try to figure out where the path is you will be mentaly challenged and take a leap of faith with every step. That is the story of this game it is minimal, the graphics are nothing special, and this is the first game of an small development team. Yet if you take a leap of faith with it you will not regret the purchase. It has clever and challenging puzzles, unique mechanics, and an effective story.
