Whenever anything looks safe you quickly realize it isn’t.
This incredibly cruel tricking of the player begins and never lets up. Then you step forward and – conk – a pan falls from the sky and KO’s Eryi. ripoff that is just catchy enough to get stuck in your head. Music plays like some sort of cheesy Super Mario Bros. Lead character Eryi seems quite pleased with her adventure, swaying her arms to and fro for an idle stance. The world is cartoony and brightly colored. My rage was stoked, but not so much to ignore the inherent funniness of the experience.Įryi’s Action looks like a cute little platformer.
Now that I’m revisiting it on the Steam launch, my feelings have changed slightly. What about a video game could make you so mad that you want to damage $40+ peripherals? Last year I played Eryi’s Action for the first time and found it ridiculous, but purposefully so. When people talk about wanting to throw their controllers across the room I just look on in abject terror. Platform: PC – Desura, Direct, GamersGate, Playism, Steam
