As well as much of the art. It's out in ten days(April 10th), please check it out! store.steampowered.com/app/2996080/...
unlabelledView post →that new game by the Lovely Planet dev... the publisher supporting the IDF aside, it just looks like if post void doubled down on the sensory overload and man it really kinda doubled down on the Thing, Japan criticism I had of Lovely Planet
unlabelledView post →Also I think Pikuniku 2 is a sleeper hit of the Direct, what a fun game the original was, and Calum Bowen (aka bo en) is a beast on their whimsical OST work. (If you wanna hear some good indie game OSTs, check out the original Pikuniku, as well as Lovely Planet and Winnose OSTs)

unlabelledView post →Simple yet challenging, fast-paced gameplay mixed with a lovely cute aesthetic. I am wayyy too unskilled to beat the later levels, but was worth playing even just for the uplifting banger soundtrack. =]
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →There are recovered black tar heroin addicts that can't be trusted within astral projection distance of any kind of needle that would find their situation healthier than playing this game. The sound effects folder is proof of Polybius levels of secret service experimentation as they're able to turn my headphones into devices capable of manipulating the strong nuclear forces in the molecular makeup of my brain into forming opioid-like compounds. If Pavlov knew anything closely resembling…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →End of Stream! Well that was "fun", I did enjoy Lovely Planet a lot in the beggining and hated it at the end. But at least some people ended up enjoying my time playing this game lol But Im gonna rest up now and eat some ice cream to end my day off. Hope you all have a good Valentine's Day! 😄
unlabelledView post →completed the first world in around 15-20 mins. very cute level-based indie fps gem. the artstyle is simplistic, but honestly, it's really a breath of fresh air compared to all of the modern gaming "super high definition realistic AAA" typa graphics that we have today. the levels play smooth, the gun you're equipped with is also really fun to use since you can shoot ahead of time and the bullets take a little while to travel and hit the enemy. you can pretty much just shoot where the enemy is…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →its good, but I lost interest after the 3rd world. way too hard to be enjoyable
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →somebody beat my highscores
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I'm so sorry to start playing another completely new game on stream but I think I want to play Lovely Planet tonight
unlabelledView post →Endgame is kind of insane hoooly
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Lovely, tight, DIFFICULT. Need some flickshot Quake / CS aim training? You like speedrun based FPS games? Think Katamari is a vibe? Is playing games with a blindfold a fair difficulty modifier? You're in the right place. For how hard it is to finish this game, the pacing is really good. World 1 treats you nicely and shows you the ropes. Then you have to keep playing with about 30% visibility. Then the visibility comes back and yet the game is, somehow, still harder. It will take some…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Random Game Saturday again and I present to you Lovely Planet as part of the ill fated Indie Box sub program. Comes with cubes, a beach ball, instruction manual, and of course the game itself on a USB flash card thing. Grabbed it at a comic book con.
unlabelledView post →it's very very good and worth the price for sure but i didn't love the feel of the movement. there are some absolutely evil enemies and hazards that i liked though. some levels are absolute supervillainy
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If you like apples, play this game there's a lot of them If you hate apples, play this game you get to shoot a lot of them If you have no strong feelings on apples, play this game you will join the second group
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Lovely Planet is incredibly deceiving in it's challenge, the first 2 worlds are decent starts to what seems like a fun-"gimmick"-puzzle shooter with an emphasis on speedrunning, especially with the stars as a challenge (No Missed Shots, Under Par Time) but later on these get BEYOND what most players can do, it goes straight into having to make incredibly quick time shots, and nigh perfect timing to even get through certain levels. The Apples will be one of the biggest pains in the ass…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Wow, what a lovely planet!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Reminder, if you obliviously see the cute store thumbnail that even setting aside the dev comments, not to buy the game published by the IDF funding, AI slop "creative" founded publisher. I was a big fan of Lovely Planet, so this particularly disgusted me.
unlabelledView post →So called "just remember lol" kinda game. Specially the fourth area of the game which is a foggy hell of constant ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. I would not recommend this game unless you love falling tomatoes, fog and hand pain.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is absolutely terrible. Do not buy if you want to have fun
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I bought this game because STAR_ (the guy on YouTube) told me to, and I don't have any original thoughts I just think and do what influencers tell me to do.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →sometimes when I tell someone I finish a hard game I worry I sound like I'm bragging. Please don't misunderstand, I'm not playing Lovely Planet because I'm a tryhard, I play it because I'm a masochist
unlabelledView post →3. High Hell (2017) This game has a really solid art direction and ads to the charm a lot, but I didn't have as much fun with this one as Lovely Planet. While there's a lot more spectacle here, your movement speed is shockingly slow. Not a deal breaker, but forces you to play more carefully.
unlabelledView post →Neon White but make it unfun.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It was quite frustrating to 100% but it was quite fun and is worth the price on sale I’d recommend
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Pretty relaxing, good game to reset mentally after a hard day. The cute tag feels redundant tho.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →simple and feel good fps game to race times in
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very difficult Lovely Planet 6/10 Heisen
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Let it be known that I discovered this game through the music being used as Querxes's outro music on YouTube. The music is great, the game is not.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's a shame as this game actually is really good especially the aesthetic they went with (its so freaking cute and i wanna see more games with this style) and gets you motivated to get all those 3 stars on each level for the first 3 worlds (personally) even with some annoying gimmicks like the apple's All that unfortunately comes crashing down with world 4 as not only is the spike in difficulty just completely frustrating the main two gimmicks they introduce are just the freaking worst things…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Precursor to Neon White, found this game through watching Dunkey's Youtube videos. Its fun, but I will stick to Neon White and maybe come back to this later. Pick it up if Neon White is out of your price range and you don't care for the 'visual novel'/'anime' aspect of Neon White. Cheers!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I'm surprised shooting the "innocent squares" in this game earns you a level reset (and hence, failure) when this game was made by an IDF supporter, 0/10 for accuracy, not a proper training tool, Tel Aviv unimpressed.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →with sound by bo en and meh unity shooter vibes + beautiful and thoughtful art and level design. very worthy of the moneyy
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →When people say playing video games will melt your brain. This is what they're talking about.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Shoutout to Calum Bowen for the banger soundtrack.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Goofy ass fps with quick gameplay and incentive to beat times. The OST however is the best thing in this whole game, holy. I love bo en's (Calum Bowen) songs.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Buy game on sale, buy the OST full price. It's cute, fast, and hard. It's deffo worth giving a go. I had a lil fun with it but it's not something I would go back to.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →very easy 100%, highly recommend. im sure a paralyzed person could beat it
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Played with mouse and KB. It was a fun quick little FPS puzzle type game. Got harder near the end of the game though. Fun to go fast and figure out the optimal route. The price feels fair for the content
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →What is a fps completely removed of any violence? This. And it happens to be one of the most starfish puckering difficult games I've come across. But it's great. Easy recommend to anyone looking for a test of skill, or just something completely new. Levels are short one minute jawns where it's all over if you make one mistake. Play and replay them even if you do beat them to shoot for a pb time.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The juxtaposition of absolute peak music with the most simple graphics is so strange
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →🌈 Tamashika, shoot n' stab from Lovely Planet dev store.steampowered.com/app/2996080/...
unlabelledView post →Next Fest Demos i Liked starting with my easy fave so far, TAMASHIKA i was already excited for this cus i like Lovely Planet but now that i've tried it i want it injected into my mind and body at the soonest moment possible. godlike loop of violence store.steampowered.com/app/2996080/...
unlabelledView post →A very fun high skill shooter with an amazing soundtrack
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →An adorably simple FPS that keeps you engaged with ramping difficulty as you progress. Blazing through the first 11 levels kept me somewhat interested but had me hoping that I wouldn't get bored too quickly. Right after finishing this stage did I finally notice the star ranking system and how I only had 2/3 stars... defeat every enemy, finish the level under the par time, and stay 100% accurate. This really opened my third eye in terms of fun and getting 3 stars on a given level before…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is a short and cute speedrun shooter. Not too stressful.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I really liked this one! it really gets you in the flow state, and it loves giving you a massive wall of difficulty, which is why I enjoyed it so much. i feel like they nailed the difficulty, though the mountains level made me pull out my hair a bit. BUT. i made it through. if i can do it, the average gamer probably can. though frustrating, i give it a 8/10. worth it for the banger soundtrack alone.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →short, simle and fun little game and its cheap
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Lovely Planet has a fantastic flow state. The art is beautiful, and the music is excellent. The difficulty quickly ramps up to the point it's hard to image sticking with the game past the second world unless you are a die-hard fan, but overall my time spent with the game was enjoyable. Lovely Planet won't be for everyone, but it's worth checking out if it looks like it might be for you.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →i can absolutely see why this game is divisive with critics and whilst it can get too precise at times, i think it does what it sets out to do excellently! Highly recommended if you enjoy games like Super Meat Boy
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is STILL getting bug fixes.
