unlabelledView post →Some years ago I worked in a new game of the Drawn to Life franchise. This is my favourite stage, and also the first one that I made for it. One cool thing of this game is how it mixed the pixel art with hand drawn stuff. 🔽 #gamedev #gameart #pixelart #drawntolife #indiegamedev #indiegames

unlabelledView post →WHERE'S THE BOSSES???? The game so far (almost 3 hours in) has just been a constant feeling of "HERE COMES A BOSS, HERE COMES A BOSS" and then it's just another uneventful chain of short puzzle levels. The gameplay is essentially -- play 3 short puzzle stages, then sit through 5 minutes of dialogue, then repeat. Also, somehow my character manages to always be facing AWAY from people during any conversations at all. The biggest entertainment of the game is laughing at it with my friends, but I…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Change is scary, y'all. This game isn't the same as the previous generation on the Nintendo DS. If you're looking for a true continuation, wait longer. Gameplay, it's a repetitive sequence where you would go from point A to point B, dig into someone's mind for 3 areas of puzzle platforming, then get rewarded with a few dialogues of the story. Rinse and repeat. Two Realm's music is amazing, like the previous games. The original composer of the series, David J. Franco, is responsible for…

unlabelledView post →I feel mixed but positive about the game. I kept my expectations in check since it was announced and never expected anything closely similar to the DS games, coming from a decade-long hiatus; as I've said before, that's a fairly unreasonable expectation. The new direction with puzzle-based levels is interesting, though not a bad move on its own. For what it's worth, I think these levels are better than DTL1, though less memorable and far more repetitive (I still can't get over the issues in the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This isn't drawn to life. I would've preferred two terrible ports of the originals for PC instead of this.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Something about giving this game a negative review isn't sitting with me right. The game has a lot of flaws, and it's clear that there were a lot of issues with bringing the IP back without a stylus and touch screen. I don't want to be at all partially responsible for less people buying the game and potentially causing the IP to take another decade long slumber. If you enjoyed DTL games in the past, I would try this out, and if you don't enjoy it, refund it.

unlabelledView post →If you're here, you're likely a Drawn to Life fan. There hasn't been a new game in 11 years, so you might be tempted to impulse-buy this. Buyer beware: the game's divisive even among fans. If you're interested in this and haven't already played the old DTL games or scribblenauts, I'd recommend looking at those instead. Two Realms is what it says on the tin: two realms. You can explore two lovely pixel art hubworlds filled with cute little characters and buildings all done in a style that's…

unlabelledView post →I uh, this is uh... Look, It's just, not very good, it's very unpolished, very bland, and the art-styles dont work well together. The art is nice, it's really really good, but the characters and backgrounds feel like they were made by two different people. Not only that, it's missing the entire whole thing that was great about drawn to life, making your own drawings for platforming, and objects, that stuff was really really cool and fun. This is just a really boring and bland platformer with…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →drawn to life is my favourite series ever. i've replayed the first two games COUNTLESS times and i'm still blown away by them every time, but this game completely missed the mark. the novelty of a new drawn to life game wore off after about 10 minutes, by which time i realised that the core gameplay was less interesting than watching paint dry. disappointed. brb gonna go replay TNC.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Drawn to life was perhaps the most influential game of my childhood , behind its childish artstyle and seemingly innocent narrative lies a story of tragedy and suffering aswell as trauma, the original two installements drawn to life and drawn to life next chapter ( drawn to life wii edition is not officially cannon and as such will not be taking part of this discussion) were pieces of art that although had relatively repetitive gameplay shared a long narrative with emotion and actual care put…

unlabelledView post →4. Drawn to Life Another game I played most of as a child and got stuck at the end until adulthood. I loved this game as a kid! It was magical to help build the world with my creations. My favorite thing to this day has to be the sound detail when you open and close your DS while playing the game.

It's a cross between an RTS and a tower defense game, and it's from the same people who made Scribblenauts and Drawn to Life! #goinglive #furrylive twitch.tv/Mr_Shasta
unlabelledView post →DSi modded❤️ Does anyone remember a classic, charming little game called "Drawn to Life" ? It was my favorite game for so long.
unlabelledView post →Don't waste your money. This game is boring as heck. It's just a basic puzzle platformer disguised as Drawn to Life. The story is near incomprehensible, and the idea of being able to draw your own game assets is gutted entirely, with the exception of the Hero.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →as someone who loved the first 2 games this is not the same as those two this game is going for a completely different gameplay style this is not the sequel i wanted but the devs look like they put a lot of care in this so theres that
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →While the art is beautiful for the most part, and the music just so-so, I can't say there's anything quite redeeming about this game. I really, really wanted something of substance to be in Two Realms. I'm a fan of the Drawn to Life Series, having played both DS games for years and years, and I've become a part of the speedrun community for the Drawn to Life games. I've even participated in an interview with Jeremiah Slaczka, the creator of the original DtL games. So I got Two Realms,…

unlabelledView post →My favorite unhinged game series is Drawn To Life. The first game has a neat gimmick where you use the Nintendo DS stylus to draw your character/objects to help you in the game. The sequel's finale reveals the entirety of the world is the subconscious creation of a kid in a coma. Here's the ending:
unlabelledView post →Not the kind of sequel anyone was looking for. Really basic plot with no nuance, clunky and unfun gameplay, and not a whole lot of drawing in a "Drawn to Life" game! Not worth playing, let alone finishing.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If you're a fan of Drawn to Life, this game isn't for you. And if you're not a fan of the series, this game is also not for you. Drawn to Life: Two Realms is a far cry from the series' roots, and worse than that is just boring. The fun platforming levels are replaced with what are essentially unpolished micro games that are either dirt easy or nails tough with no real natural progression. On top of that, you have to place items and enemies in each level, which could've been done well, but…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I’m late to reviewing this, but I was pretty darn disappointed in the game. I have a lot of nostalgia around the original 2 DS games, so I was very excited to series revived after a decade. What I got wasn’t what I expected at all. It’s nice to see the series return along with the characters, but it’s held back by a lot. Notably, the change in gameplay genre was a very poor decision. It’s very alienating to the people who were excited for this series to come back when the games we loved just…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Nothing like the DS games before it, no charm at all, the gameplay isn't fun and the world feels empty. The only good thing I can say is the sprite work looks amazing. But everything else feels like a gut punch to fans of the original games.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →TL;DR: Probably alright if you're a fan of Mario Maker. If you'd come for the swords and fun, creative fantasy world from the previous titles as I did, I wouldn't recommend it so far. Supremely bored with the gameplay. I was a huge fan of the original games, especially Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter! I hold that game close to my heart, and when I heard another game had come out in the series I immidiately bought it. The results have been disappointing at best. It seems like they'd taken out…

So woke Koizumi will come to your house and make your dog genderfluid, so it gets the BADASS seal of approval 👊
unlabelledView post →Drawn to Life was far from a perfect video game but what it certainly had was incentive towards continuing the game to unlock and draw more of your town. In that regard the game worked perfectly in terms of a reward system, getting to see your town grow and expand as you played, as well as fun explorative levels that rewarded secret finding. Two Realms has none of this, a disappointing follow up to those DS games that feel like cheap mobile cash ins, with "puzzle platforming" that feels…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Feels like a watered down version of what I hoped Drawn to life 3 would be
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This doesn't feel like a faithful continuation of Drawn to Life at all. I was very excited waiting for this game, but the stages are incredibly unsatisfying, the game is ridiculously short, and there's not nearly enough stuff to draw. There's like 15 cosmetics that sit around in Rapoville and that;s about it. There are absolutely no bosses, and there aren't hidden collectibles through the levels since there's no real levels. The "story" is technically a continuation of the 2nd game, but it…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I am a solid fan of the DTL series Ive played all the games including the spongebob and terrible Wii one, and from experience can say that this game is horrible at connecting fans back to the series and its core values. Firstly the positives, game looks amazing, and sounds amazing, that drew me into getting the game. Enough of the good points time for the critizism. Firstly, this aint no DTL game chief. This game is a puzzle platformer far away from the core game play that the original 2 main…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game was less meaningful, less engaging, needlessly difficult to play, super buggy, had a bad plot that seemed to contradict the first two games, and was just downright not well thought out well enough to me. The game mechanics got repetitive and some events were anticlimactic. I cannot count the number of times I have gone through a soft lock of the game that caused loss of progress as I had to restart it. Just recently, there was a time my character did not exist in a level at all. The…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I'm not one who usually writes reviews for things. I'd only write a review if I either really liked something, or was very let down. And hooooo boy... Let me get this straight: If you played the original Drawn To Life games for DS, you're going to be heavily disappointed in this. I grew up playing the two main series DS games. They hold memories dearer to me than one could imagine. In fact, I likely wouldn't be who I am today without them. Let me start off with the good things; The drawing…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As a big drawn to life fan this game does not deliver. Maybe I shouldn't act entitled because who ever saw a third game coming? But it's like, why fix/change what isn't broken? In a sense it's like Paper Mario, you kinda changed it just for the sake of changing it, rather than just building upon what made the predecessors good. If you enjoy small puzzle games built for mobile then this is for you. Maybe it should've been advertised as a spin-off rather than DTL3. Visually it's still great.…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Hate to say it but this game is a sequel to DTL in the same way Nuts and Bolts was a sequel to Banjo-Kazoie. If it were it's own IP i'd probably like it but by tying itself to DTL it's been made to be compared to the old games and it just doesn't compare at any level besides the music. It's a darn shame too because this series is what pushed gaming as a medium into being worth it for me and now it's fallen like the rest.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I used to play the original DTL games for hours on end. This game? It feels like a joke. A slap in the face. There is no adventure, no action, no drawing in levels, no nothing. The release of DTL 3 was a pleasant surprise, tainted by its underwhelming, mobile-game style gameplay and modernized UI. In short: DTL 2 made me cry with how rich the story was, and the beautiful art and soundtracks to go with it. DTL 3 makes me cry because of how much of a travesty it is. However, I will press…
