This feels like a game where the developers are just learning about making 3D platformers, but Yuji Naka was involved with many great 3D platformers in the past. The game may look very nice on a PlayStation 5, but it certainly does not play well. These issues are on every system and hamper the experience. The camera feels like it is fighting you constantly as you play, and there are server pop-in and texture issues that are straight out of the early 3D game era. The world rolls in around you as you move in a very disorientating way. This does not feel like a modern 3D game like Super Mario Odyssey, but rather a Sega Saturn era game that just happens to be in HD. The biggest issues though are to do with the overall visual layout of the game. Another issue is the controls, as every button does the same action and this feels limiting in terms of game design and extremely basic for a modern platformer.
While you can stack costumes, you can also end up with three of the same costume as well, which can actually mess you over. However, you are limited to three costumes at a time, and getting hit causes you to lose a costume. Everything feels slow on all platforms, and not in terms of framerate, but rather the game just feels sluggish and unresponsive at times.īalan Wonderworld has some interesting ideas, such as the costumes giving new abilities and being able to switch between the costumes. The issue is, the gameplay itself has numerous problems. On Switch, the graphics do take a very notable hit, but the gameplay itself is intact. The demo was played on a variety of systems including the Switch and PS4, in order to get a more general view of how the game looks on different systems. Balan Wonderworld is an interesting game with some neat ideas, but there are issues that have caused us some great concern.
Square Enix recently released a demo for the game on all platforms and we decided to check it out, and the results were mixed, to say the least. Balan Wonderworld is a game we at Real Otaku Gamer were looking forward to, even including it on our list of games to watch in 2021.
