Like Super Monkey Ball if it was a non-linear shapeshifting metroidvania. Eye-searing, but a surprisingly coherent sensory assault. store.steampowered.com/app/2111360/...

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The thing about Tony Hawk games is that if you haven’t played them you’re probably just thinking like oh, okay, it’s a sports game. You do sports competition things. But in reality, Tony Hawk is more “what if Super Monkey Ball used fighting game controls”

unlabelledView post →The first two games are the equivalent of driving a Ferrari in terms of precison, control, and level design. This game on the other hand, is like driving an 18 wheeler with a BAC of 5 times the legal limit. Camera is impossible to control, level design is uninspired, and the game just feels... slow. All in all, a 2/10 and another kick to the nuts of every monkey ball fan, which SEGA has been doing for 16 years now.

They developed/co-developed hits like Daytona USA, Super Monkey Ball and F-Zero GX before later rejoining Sega in 2004 and beginning work on the Yakuza series!

unlabelledView post →It launched with a pretty small line-up of just three (but lovely) games: Luigi's Mansion, Super Monkey Ball, and Wave Race: Blue Storm. It's an example of how the times were a-changing, though; a Sega game is a launch title for a Nintendo console.

unlabelledView post →I don't like being negative or agreeing with the angry fanboys... But they're right. This is like making a Sonic game where you move slowly, or a Mario game where you can't jump, or a Bomberman game where you can't drop bombs; Making a Monkey Ball game where you can't fall off the edge is like those things. It needs a mode with these changes: 1) Remove the walls. 2) Remove the straightaways. 3) Put jumping on a cooldown and make it optional in levels. 4) Make the paths more narrow. As-is,…

unlabelledView post →DO NOT BUY THIS EVEN OUT OF CURIOSITY After playing through the originals I gave this a shot knowing it wasn't up to par and was still left disappointed. The jump ability feels like a last minute addition and it is nowhere near as tight as the originals. Stages in the harder worlds as well as the boss fights feel extremely clunky and without the proper precision present in the old games they fringe on frustrating. Even if you are thinking of playing it knowing it is not as good, do not…

unlabelledView post →This game is very misunderstood. No, it isn't Super Monkey Ball 1 or 2, but it stands very well on its own. The game involves you controlling the actual stage in order to safely get your monkey, which is in a ball, to the end of the stage. You can also jump in this game, a mechanic introduced in this entry. It was originally released for the Wii and it used motion controls, but it has now been remade and adapted for modern consoles and PC. First, I wanted to address some common complaints…

unlabelledView post →I heard superfans of the series dogpiled on this game when it first came out. I figured that it at least must be playable, if not competitively tuned. I was wrong. This game is infuriating. Control is garbage and camera is worse.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As am monkey ball fan The controls suck I (Prob PC only) But its so bad i got a refund
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not sure why so many people are complaining that it's "too easy" when less than 10% of players have even beaten the "main" 8 worlds of the game,,, It is a rather short game (I beat those 8 worlds in 3.4 hours), but that's just because the levels are short/it's a bite-sized experience by design. Perhaps that ruffled Wii owners back in the day, but for an often discounted Steam release, such length is just fine. I thought there was a sufficient amount of challenge toward the end (world 7/8) and…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The most egregious example of this I can think of is Super Monkey Ball. They literally said, “Buy this remaster of a game you probably already don’t like and we MIGHT keep the franchise alive!” actual scummy behavior and i can’t say i’m surprised they considered doing the same with their mascot
unlabelledView post →Its really good, I think its a fine addition too the series. And just because all 3 SMB Games are coming back does not mean this game isn't good, it is a solid title, I do hope people are giving it a chance and not leaving it a bad review just saying "just wait"
