Fallen Leaf is one of the most underrated games I've ever had the pleasure of experiencing. It's pretty similar to megaman x and Megaman zero, but it introduces these cool new ideas that I've never seen before, at least not to this degree. I think it's great and you should play it if it looks interesting to you.
Disclaimer so I don't get sued: Thanks to the developers of Fallen leaf for the free copy of the game. They did NOT pay me, nor was I asked to me to make this video. I made it because I wanted to, no other reason. :^)
Song list (in order):
Somewhere in the woods (Short Hike)
Water Land (World 3 Map) Kirby's Epic Yarn
Above the Clouds Fallen Leaf
Crystalline Unsighted
Tools of War Specter of Torment
Theme of Cable (Gravity Circuit)
Fallen Leaf City Theme
Fallen Leaf Beach Theme
Hey, thanks a ton for giving our game a chance, and I'm really glad you enjoyed it so much! We put a lot of work into it over the course of nearly 5 years, so it's rewarding to see when people pick up on so many of the details like this. We're very flattered!
I think it's fair to say that gamers need more titles like yours; no triple-A baggage or nonsense, just good old-fashioned gaming that no one should leaf behind.
Do you think it'll ever get ported to consoles? My dad would love this game but he doesnt like playing on PC
Any plans for a sale?
@@bigphatburger3038it runs great on steam deck
It's wonderful. I've E-Mailed you about a Japanese Localisation for it :)
This game looks perfect for the switch. Hope it gets released on that platform as well
I really hope it gets a switch release at some time in the future, it really does seem like a perfect switch game
Would buy it for my daughter
It's too bad the game devs are leftist lunatics. Would've given this game a try, it's a shame.
Too bad the game devs are raging leftist lunatics.
This looks like a cross between Megaman, Shovel Knight Treasure Trove, and Gal Guardians Demon Purge, but amping up a pot of the things I like about them.
Reminds me of Castlevania 3 with the switching mechanic. Just with a lot more options.
@@BDSquirrel yeah exactly what i was thinking, the switching definitely made me think of Castlevania 3 and the two Bloodstained: curse of the moon games, especially with the magic weapons following the general formula a lot of the curse of the moon subweapons tend to
Bro is ready to get those devs fed
I hope 35k views makes enough ppl buy the game for that to happen
@@wulf2863 well, I'm sold, at least. I'll probably grab it soon.
Another platformer that does a good job with world building and sidequest is Curse Crackers. It even goes so far as to have NPCs move around the world and interact with eachother. And its should be no surprise because that devs OTHER game is Prodigal, a top down adventure which ask the questions "what if Zelda sidequest WAS the core gameplay loop".
To a much lesser extent... um, Flipwitch... its a metroidvania with an adult artstyle and that's centered around... lets call it very intimate npc interactions... I'll stop beating around the bush, its basically what would happen if the Momodara devs turned off their horny inhibitors.
I love Flipwitch, so I gotta try all of these
Never seen a game where you can literally get Raped by monsters after they defeat you (also known as "Game Over Rape") casually recommended in a SFW space before. Flipwitch was the last thing I expected to see here. Fetishized porn games really are getting more popular, huh?
it literally says "Monsters in the game are capable of non consensual sex with the female, player-controlled protagonist." and "Various non-vanilla encounters and non-consensual sex featuring humans and monsters" on the steam page, like it isn't hidden but it's worth pointing out in case people get curious.
@@youyoutootoo00 The game get removed on Steam lol ?
@@Terranigma23 no because steam allows hentai games with rape, you just need to be logged in with adult settings active to see it. It's surprising because there was a game that was banned off of steam before it came out called "Rape Day" that "Valve says it won't publish game about raping women" yet they have a fuck-ton of rape games on there as hentai yet they remain because there wasn't a huge public out cry about it.
God that mhswoocer guy has been cooking lately. His last two videos have been the best 2 he's ever posted on that channel I swear
bro's going back to back like lebron in miami
1:34 A reference to Ayumi-chan Monogatari, a really old Alicesoft game.
It's basically asking, "hey do you want to play a megaman like game?" "how about one with 10x more levels and side quests like its a 90s cartoon adventure platformer?".
Personally i did buy this day 1 but having games ongoing and a bit of a backlog in front of it, its not the kind of game that i would play immediately. It is at the top of the list when i feel like playing an adventure platformer. Definitely looks like something that's both a joy to play and has a lot you can do without feeling the need that you have to do it.
Just got it, looks awesome. These are the indie games that need to be elevated. The ones that take classic formulas and turn them to 11 and pack them the experience and knowledge only decades of retro gaming can provide.
My recommendation for a game like this will always be "The End of Dyeus" which feels like elder scrolls mixed with an early 2d zelda. Only game I've played that made an Iron Shield feel like a massive upgrade.
The character switching mechanic sounds so smart, it's taking Z/ZX/ZXA's amazing ability to switch your form, but with a slight twist!
Neat game, for sure wishlisting it!
If this game had come out in the Super Nintendo era we would still be talking about it to this day like a legend. It’s got some real shovel knight vibes too.
Pretty sure it's meant to look like an NES game, not SNES.
@@seanewing204 its too hi def for that, reminds me more of the 16 bit era
0:49 They a Mark in the box? I've heard of a Jack in the Box. I've heard of a Charlie in the Box. But I've never heard of a Mark in the Box.
I just reviewed it myself, and I'm glad that I see some else seeing it with the same quality that I am. I did stream some of it day one, and immediately was like "hey, this is something good", and man I'm glad I completed it. I do think that it doesn't have that attraction that's going to get mega eyes on it (it's not flashy in the way to get major players/streams/youtubers to see it), but I'm hoping it gets enough attention in the long run. Well done video, and straight to the point with some good choices on the sequences/choices that you made (my favorite detail moment is the Clay Man who literally indicates the time you visited him when counting aloud, and him definitely keep an eye on the last time you talked to him. Well done.
Thanks for bringing this game to our attention! Looks fantastic!
The "Gotcha Moments" are a mechanic of a lot of what people call "retro" games. Examples: Ghosts n Goblins, Megaman *, Battletoads, etc...
>writing usually doesn't matter
It does. Writing ALWAYS matters. Which is why despite a bunch of questionable game design, Megaman Zero is LEGENDARY
I agree but damn those guardians were getting 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴𝔂 on MMZ2 getting all excited to fight Zero
@@Josuh bouta replay
I fucking LOVE the Megaman Zero games!!!
What about ZX games !?
@@Haywood-Jablomie Awesome games! Gotta also the love VA for Ashe consistently talking about her "booty" xP
The phrase "Megaman-like" would've shaved a good 5 minutes off this video. Puzzle platformer, Jump 'n shoot (or Jump 'n Slash when playing as Zero), enemies and stage features are presented safely first before mixing and matching them, failing restarting at the start of the room with no pause in between (running out of lives was the only way you restarted at the start of the stage, no lives means no stage restart), these are all mechanics and design philosophies that've been around since the first Megaman on the NES.
And if you've never played Megaman?
@@smokelingers9857 It's hard to imagine someone interested in games who somehow hasn't played a Megaman-like at some point. Shovel Knight and it's DLC/Sequels are Megaman-likes, they still release Megaman platformers everywhere, and Megaman X is probably one of the most pirated SNES games in history because it's famous.
@@KiraSlith And yet, some people haven't played Megaman, or were not aware of the term Megaman-like. I'm one who has never heard the term Megaman-like associated with any game, and it is not a tag on Steam. The point I'm trying to get across is that shaving 5 minutes off the video to say Megaman-like would very easily leave somebody confused when it came around to the exciting part about character switching and how well thought out that part is.
@@smokelingers9857 It's a world famous franchise spanning three real world generations of gamers. I've never even mentioned the games to my baby brother before, he's a Fortnite and Minecraft obsessed dabbing zoomer born in 2013, and even he knows what a Megaman game is. Not knowing what a Megaman platformer is, is like not knowing what a Mario platformer is. Unless you've never played a game in your life, you know what a Megaman game is.
@@KiraSlith There are gamers who haven't played Pokemon, D&D, Monopoly, etc. Just like there are people who've listened to heavy metal and haven't heard a Metallica song. I have played two Megaman games, Zero and Battle Network. Calling this game a Megaman-like wouldn't have been nearly as informative or interesting to me. Explaining what makes it like Megaman and why I should care was worth those 5 minutes. I had a similar feeling to you in the first couple minutes of the video, because he basically described good systems design in any game. But it ties into his later points, which would've made me click off if all I heard was Megaman-like prior to that.
I've been playing and loving this game since release day. But seeing this pop up in my feed made me want to watch it anyways because I wanted to hear someone else gush about it.
It's definitely one of my favorite games of the year thus far.
Loving Fallen Leaf a lot - got it on launch and it's the best blend of Mega Man and Kid Icarus ever
I'm no one, and I'm gonna hop back and continue playing this game.
the game is like those old games that feels like it has soul, its fun, theres no community that makes you quit, its just a game, a good entertainment like how video game should be, theres so much for a game that didnt look theres much in at glance
Well… You sold me at the 4 min mark lol. This is something perfect to play on the steam deck in handheld mode while I am at my in-laws! My wife might actually play this as well (She doesn’t like complex controls lol)
"Leaf is basically just Mega Man At Home." Take my sub, sir.
I just want to play as Pawla.
Looks like a great game. Put it on my wishlist of Steam for now and I'll get to buying it sometime later when I actually have time. That said, about the death system in other games... it really depends on the kind of game you have. A hard 2D platformer where you'll die a lot doesn't need a long death/failure section. But in something like Monster Hunter it's also fine to have longer failure periods. You're fighting monsters anywhere from 10-50 or so minutes by the time you fail, you don't need to get back to the gameplay again in a few seconds. Usually you'll want to prepare better as well for the monster, so it serves as a breather.
Of course it is dependant on the type of game and even the type of mode. Honestly hated not having a 'restart' option in Metal Gear Rising's trials. It's a mode in the game made for time trials, but the only way to 'restart' is to either finish or die. If you mess up big halfway through or at the start, either you need to die or exit to the main menu and select the trial again. It's not an issue for the main game, but it is an issue for that specific mode for example.
lol.. "Pawla" ... I see the devs enjoy their puns too, haha.
Wouldn't have known about this game if it didn't appear in my recommended. Definitely gonna try it. There's just so many indie games that come out now it's hard to keep track and I'm someone who wishlists a LOT of stuff. Can you also put the Steam link of the game in your description?
Tifa is every mans dream...
54 seconds in, I'm sold. I'll just go buy it so I don't get too spoiled on what's in it.
I have never been more excited for a game I just now heard of. I need to play this!
Just found your channel. Thanks for the game recommend, it looks amazing!
Yes, yes I am in fact the audience for this game.
I think the way that it doesnt out right say what character to use is refreshing because most games seem to either have a sign or obvious target for a weapon or ability. Its just well designed
I've been looking for something to play and you had me at MEGAMAN! Thanks for the review. We need more channels like this that give exposure to hidden gems so that we can continue to support these amazing game developers. Like and subbed.
And this is
Why I'm subbed.
Getting it for steam
And praying for a Switch Release
This gives me Gravity Circuit vibes, and I'm here for it :D
Not even 3 minutes into the video and I'm already sold goddammit
Time to feed Steam Deck with another perfectly retro looking piece.
This is an amazingly polished game... Really well done
looks like a nice fusion of megaman and shantae, I like it
Luv the mix of 8/16 bit vibe.Also never heard of this game ill pick it up
I'm not sure this game is for me, but you've sold me. I have some friends who love this style of game and I'll mention it to them. Like as not they'll love it.
i skipped this originally bc of the mega man comparisons, and i don't like that series, but i picked it up the other day. tonight i started it and played for a couple hours straight. excellent game so far.
I don't like how the devs went onto reddit and complained about getting their game cancelled due to "wokeness"
the best game on steam? That has to complete with Pizza Tower, Gmod, Half-life, Elden Ring, Animal Well, Celeste, Undertale, Cuphead, and many more I havnt mentioned.
Thanks for the recommendation, now I got something to check out on a rainy day
Keep doing these. Love the indie scene. Some of the best games I’ve played.
"Just uder a dozen characters" So, 11...? Maybe 10? Why not just say how many?
I didn't wanna specify the exact number due to spoilers
@@mhswoocer number of chars is not a spoiler
@@Yoni123 I agree! However, I have to appeal to the lowest common denominator and since there are people who consider character numbers spoilers, I just don't reveal them.
Oh wow, this seems SO charming and rewarding
That why im glad im old school once a game plays like 1 of the Original TOP 10 games from my NES. This games look like MegaMan im im sold
Oh, it was on my wishlist already, but I'll pay extra attention now
YOU REALLY ought to get your hands on Mega Man Legends. Particularly 2. You're gonna go nuts for it.
Sold me within one minute
*_So it’s like Beavis & Butthead for the Sega Genesis?_*
I like how you started the video talking like I knew what this was XD
Alright fine, I'll go get it; was already on my wishlist, anyway.
Ayy, this has been in my wishlist for a bit! I'm not letting myself buy any more games until the winter sale tho because I have a problem
no death animation? i am sold, wishlist time.
If the game had a demo, I really appreciate when theres a demo, its a bad feeling when the game dosen't hit but I already passed 2 hours so no refund
One more for the backlog! Thanks for putting this on my radar.
I've had this on my wishlist since it came out unfortunately have other games I'm working on before getting to it. Would also prefer playing on Playstation
I've always preferred gaming on consoles so I totally get that lol
this game has been on my steam wishlist for a long while and I really wanna play it but no money at all :((((
still good video!
Great video script writing!
What a great review! You got a new sub and the devs a new player for their game.
It’s a shame when great games like this fly under the radar. I feel like many people would enjoy it. (I’ll definitely check it out, if it ever gets a Switch release).
Funnily enough, the large NPC-filled areas in a 2D-environment reminded me of another relatively unknown indie-game, called Phoenotopia Awakening.
The best game on steam (an opinion) is BeamNG. Its arguably better off steam even, because you actually own the game.
Thanks for introducing this neat hidden gem. I may get to buying if after finishing Fields of Mistria. Looks like fun.
This looks great. Definitely flew under my radar. Love indies, especially those that can capture the feel of oldschool games to such a great degree. my backlog is immense but this is going on my wishlist shortlist. In other words, I'm definitely gonna buy this when I get the chance. No wishlist limbo for this one.
This game looks perfect omg out of all playstyles in 2d platformers I am so used to Mega Man for some reaso lol Seeing this with even more different characters and attributes is spectacular!
This game looks great.
Popful Mail vibes
hey, great video and thanks for the info! but a small suggestion: could you add a direct link to the steam page from your description? just for convenience sake
Thank you!
Between these guys and The Moldenhauers, it looks like families make the best indy games.
Gotta be honest, collecting items and then finding the npc who needs them does not sound ground breaking.
Currently unable to buy this, but I’ll definitely pit it on the wishlist!! And commenting so someone who does have the money can buy.
I just finished the game, and wow! Loved it!
I beat this game at 100% I had fun but the excessive amount of characters didnt really mesh well with the overall gameplay when you only use 4 at most. Even the last stage of the game which needs all characters (supposedly) can be cheesed with other ones.
Also the story is more or less an afterthought.
Nevertheless I enjoyed it.
1:14 is that Shiki from twewy
The way this review is written makes it sound like you've only just discovered platformers a year ago.
That's not a dig at you, nor the game (it looks really good!) Rather, the highlights you praise it for are featured in dozens upon dozens of the best platformers, haha.
Check out the Shantae series and Megaman ZX if you haven't already. I know I don't need to mention Shovel Knight since I heard its soundtrack in this video.
Nice, btw tha subscribe reminder actually works.
Bro's channel does more for these games than their actual marketing damn
This game sounds like an updated Popful Mail!
This style of game has been around for ages. You have a knight/archer/mage and you switch between them. My more recent discovery being astalon tears of the earth.
For us older generation we like to call these types of games Joe and Mac clones. Where the background tells us what we are gonna see but we only care about how annoying the enemies are to slow us down and force us to notice that rock that strangely looks like Johnny Depp. You either like the scenery or you can't wait to post your 20 second speed run while a casual took 40 minutes and 4-7 continues.
With what I saw I would give it a shot. Mostly from cat girl supremacy to something I don't really need 200iq plays to beat.
great review and the game seems cool gonna check it out
Thank you for this video it’s great! This game looks great too!
When this game came out I was considering buying it but said no for now. This video made me reconsider
the game looks cute, but why do you make tried and tested and pretty well established mechanics and concepts out to be some innovative and groundbreaking ideas?
Yeah , it doesn't feel honest
I mean, he's not shy about where the mechanics seem to come from, I think he just hasn't played any games that combine them in the "fresh and innovative" way this one does.
Now Susan dont be like that
i cry everytime i see a game i want to play only to find it its only for pc 😢
Man! Gonna have to check this game out! Looks so up my alley!!
It came out this year, man. Give it a chance. Tho I bet videos like this will help.
the character switching makes me think of the Pandemonium games
Did you put the GOATED soundtrack of a Short Hike to make your point??? How dare you?????
1:34 I’m apparently out of the loop. What’s the reference?
Gonna play this on my steam deck tonight, will give a feedback once i have done so. Thank you for sharing !
Edit : It's a banger. Bought a copy for a friend and he loves it too.
Thank you for the recommendation. I have loved it so far. Except for those birds that fly at me just 1 pixel above where my shots are going...they are assholes.
But my god...what a amazing game. Also Pawla is top tier waifu material.
They made a fit over Reddit where they lied about a couple of stuff lol. No sympathy from any studio when they do that.
Examples?
@@akiradkcn I would gladly link you the Reddit page where they throw a hissy fit over 2 bad reviews of their game and said they were being harassed and when someone went to fact check them they deleted their post. So sadly, I cannot link you directly to it. Sorry, the chad basement dweller Reddit mods make sure to get rid of the expose. But basically it was found they were doing this for self promotion and pity points.
If they make a physical copy I am buying it day one.
This looks like one of the best platformers ever made
Sold! Loved the video!
Ayumi-chan wha wha whaaaa
Okay, game has a man of pure and unbridled culture. Buying.
