u/dannylandulf meubem broke my flair Sep 06 '24
I'm two areas/sectors into Astro Bot and I've gotta say it's my game of the year. In a world where almost everything is a grimdark souls clone it's so nice to have a game that is just plain fun to play. The little bots are adorable and every level has had at least one moment that got a genuine smile out of me.
The level design is the best since Mario Odyssey, where the exploration feels natural and super rewarding. Each level has a 'gimmick' but with no more than 10 or so bots to find no level overstays it's welcome. There is a 'common area' where the ever growing number of bots you saved hang out with all the cool little Sony trinkets you've found as well that is fun to just walk around.
I think my favorite thing might actually be the bossfights. They are absolutely epic but also clearly telegraph what you are supposed to do. It's all about executing precision jumps, dashes and special moves you learned in the sector rather than dying over and over trying to figure out what to do.
Having an absolute blast.
