Choctopus, they released a novel that had the plot. If a game company has to explain the plot via a book that should have been in the game in the first place, they fucked up.

Basically, if the plot isn't in the goddamn game, your game doesn't have a goddamn plot. Things like books and comics should be side content or suplimentary at most. It should be content that expands on what's already there or at least explains what the game itself couldn't. If you're relying on the book to contain the plot you couldn't bother to put into the game then you failed. Period, no questions asked. What's worse, the novel could actually be really good, but because the game is a hot piece of garbage nobody is going to buy it.

Never knew about the novel... Overwatch didn't have much of a story till the series came out but even then you get see what faction, why they split up and why they fight. Simple but obvious reasons.. The shorts just EXPANDS the lore. Here you get no clue whats what. I literally had to rely on the fact that Balon looks like NiGHTS and assume he does the same thing (when he says about finding your lost heart). The other side characters have simple reasons why they turn to the dark side but are kinda bland as heck!

This control scheme only work on games where the character literally only needs to move and jump (or whatever other action), and even then having one button isn’t the whole thing, you can also do directional inputs, mashing, holds and releases, etc. all in order to let the player do more with less. This game clearly needs at the very least two action buttons (besides the triggers for swapping costumes), but instead, they’re either cramming the abilities of a costume in one button, or removing jump to fit the other action, all so everything works with one action button, and this includes the menus! What! And also maybe have a third button or an extension of the costume swapping so the player can return back to normal, or actually let all costumes jump, because I’ve seen cases where players can get nearly stuck in certain spots because the only costume they have left can’t jump, and that area requires you to jump to be able to escape, even if that’s not a common occurrence, that means you SHOULD be able to jump at all times in one way or another, that’s just bad game design if the player can get stuck in a level and must exit it or restart it in order to free themselves

Apparently after Yuji Naka joined Square Enix in 2018, he kept pitching the idea of making a proper platformer, but Square Enix's head honchos weren't interested. After a lot of begging, SE acquiesced but with the caveat being that this would be Yuji's one and only shot at impressing them with a platformer. So he was under a lot of pressure because Balan World's success would determine whether or not SE would broach the subject of traditional platformers. Even with all of that, this was the best Yuji's dev team could give us...so guess what's definitely not getting a sequel-ever?

I love Balan and 'evil Balan''s design. I really wish they gave those characters the proper justice they deserve. Imagine if you played Balan and had to save this Wonderworld from evil Balan, and his influence was destroying this perfect reality everyone is living in. Then it does some segue that this evil Balan was formed by the darkness of the people who lived in it and Balan's darkness himself, yadda yadda, heavy self reflection and maybe a plot twist. The concept they were initially working with HAD potential (i.e., something happened in people's lives that deeply affected them and made worlds around that). The execution? Not so much.

I can explain those quicktime events for you. In those parts, you have to time everything perfectly to advance. If you get all excellents, you get a balan stateau. But if you get anything else but a excellent, you get absolutely nothing. This game can be very picky for perfection, also with those sport minigames.

I see the reason for the costumes that do almost the same thing in the same way I think of the pokemon that can learn the same moves. Because they´re either the same kind of creature or have the same kind of nature/type. That´s why the robot costumes shoot lasers (since they´re both the same kind of theme: Robots), the jellyfish and the dolphin allow you to swim (because they´re the same kind as well: aquatic creatures).

I actually got some useful context from the book for this god forsaken game: -Lance and Balan are the same being, except Lance is sad nobody stayed with him or something, and the laws of reality dictate that there must be a Balan. -The dancing, disappearing things in the levels are like pieces of a person’s soul or something that point you to important stuff. -The World 6 boss is actually from 10 years in the past, meaning if she interacted with anyone else, it could create a time paradox or something. There’s some other stuff, but it’s either not established enough, or not too important.

Wanna know a game that did a great job with costume power ups? Ape escape 3. Not only were the costumes cute and used many times during the game, but they also had USEFUL SKILLS and PURPOSE. None were similar to the other, each power up costume had unique abilities and couldve been used for many other things as well. I feel like that game is underrated asf, granted it only had perhaps 8 costumes, (much less than balans wonderworld) but they were great and I still remember them to this day. Fantasy knight was the best costume imo- if anyone was disappointed in Balan; i definitely recommend checking out Ape Escape 3!

Ironically Sonic really showed that you don't need more than a jump button, you just need some creativity. The powerups in Sonic 3 are great examples of upgrades that allow you to do more things with just one button, and they are useful no matter where you use them. You can make amazing platformers levels with just jumping and running, you just need interesting features and obstacles that allow you to use your abilities in clever and varied ways. Instead, this game seems to view each costume as a key that you use once to access a new area and then discard.
