I gave the game a 6.5/10 (fair). It was definitely worth playing and look forward to the sequel.
It's heartwarming to see some people looking forward to this sequel, but there's something that needs to be addressed.
At this point, Project Mercury Returns hasn't been worked on in over a year. It's roughly 75% complete. It remains unclear if this will ever be finished. There are several factors behind this.
If I saw a broader demand for more, I'd be open to finishing this thing up.
No problem. Good to hear an update and no rush as the indie market is definitely oversaturated by this point.
I hope it gets finished. The first one wasn't perfect, but it had a really cool style and this demo feels like it improved most areas. I'd definitely play a sequel!
I mean, nobody asked for it, but I was about to. I just finished it on Steam, and it was pretty good. It had some problems with difficulty spikes but whatever, it was fun. Just about to try this one now.
Hey, thanks for your kind words! I hope you have a good time with this demo.
Hopefully, the final game is a bit more straightforward with the difficulty. It'll still have that "Nintendo hard" feel about it, but it'll be gradual. Unlike the first game, this one will have a progression that is strictly linear.
I enjoyed the Nintendo hard feel of it, but the newer generation of gamers hate that, so perhaps a difficulty slider or something.
