Review: N++
There's an old saying among gamers: graphics aren't everything. This has been proven time and time again, but the clean, minimal graphical style showcased in N++ really drives it home. This game is entirely focused on its fast-paced gameplay; detailed graphics would just get in everybody's way.
N++ describes itself as a momentum-driven platformer, and that sums everything up very well. It's all about navigating rooms filled with dangerous enemies, obstacles, and gold as quickly and effectively as possible. Even one mistake will prove fatal, so each jump and pivot needs to land perfectly.
You're also on a strict time limit -- spend too long in a level, and you may not have enough time to survive the rest of the episode. Collecting gold grants you points and extends the time limit, but being greedy is a surefire way to lead your stick figure ninja into a deadly trap.
While the basic idea is simple enough, you'll need some serious reflexes and careful planning to conquer the later levels in this game. This puts N++ out of reach for many casual gamers, but if you're up for a challenge, give it a look.
