How am i to discern the whereabouts of yon biscuits?
If there's one thing Felvidek undeniably has, it's character. It's a character that hangs over the whole production, from its pixel-y art style, to its acoustic synth-y music tracks, to its delicious, humorous writing. I came away feeling like i had just enjoyed a lovely evening at a friendly stranger's house, where things seem unfamiliar, but no less warm and welcoming
Coincidentally i watched the movie Sinners recently, and its themes of cultural heritage, and the human "soul" of art, made me think about Felvidek in those terms. You can feel the cultural influence so well, that it's almost like having glimpses of that time period. It definitely awoke a hunger in me to experience more, but i'll settle for just more "like this"
A short game you could probably finish in a day, i would recommend anyone to try it out
Damn, I really want to get my hands on it. Another weird game I played recently and actually really liked was Hylics, I see it being compared to Felvidek sometimes. Maybe Vangers too
And the reverse, too. More than once i read a comment/review referring to Felvidek as a Slovak Hylics, so i should really add that to my (neverending) list of games to play
I bought Hylics at some point because I was too curious about it hahaha it’s definitely odd, but I feel really borderline about whether I recommend it or not. It’s short, so that’s a plus. And it’s odd, which is also another plus since it’s unlike most of the stuff you’ve seen hahaah althought it’s a JRPG, once you beat an enemy, it’s gone forever, so there’s no grind at all involved. I guess if you can stomach a simple JRPG for a few hours and a weird amount of oddity, you’re good to go!
