shift: freedom!
Time to shift once more, shift: freedom! is here, which means more original puzzle platforming.
i love the sift series, but it too buggy for me. Don't know if this is me but this kills the game. Got many times stuck in the box and had to restart the level. Three times I got to the chapter menu at the end of a level and had to skip some levels to watch the story clips.... Without this i really would love this game
It has a "chapter select" but no "level select". I think that I was almost done with chapter 2 and had to quit the game. Now I've got to start chapter 2 over again. Bummer...
@ akroe: i agree.. the levels seem a bit familiar... i can't remember if they are exactly the same, but i definitely felt like i've seen these levels before..
I've beat both pipe games, and was told I got the medals, but when I went to the medals room, it said I hadnt' won those yet. So I did them again, and still no medals. Anyone else have that problem?
I wish I could have kept playing this, but the horrible glitches finally make me have to close it. Specifically, you CANNOT reliably pull a box -- 3/4 of the time, you end up stuck in the box and have to reset the entire level.
Bart, it'd be great if you could repost this if you happen to get word that the author fixed it. Because as it is, this game should never have made it out of Beta.
No. That's not as funny as first 4. There is no such an ironic atmosphere (and music). OH? tha-a-a-anks for making it free, I thought he'd never guess it.
First! YAY! A new shift game!
ReplyDeleteFun! It also gives you mini-puzzles and awards! Great game Bart!
ReplyDeleteits probably me but what's new in this one?
ReplyDeletethe levels are just the same ...

ReplyDeleteneeds a lot of resources and is therefore a bit laggy. I prefer the 'original' shift over this one.

@ Anonymous: Actually there is a level select menu. Look at the bottom of the chapter select page.
ReplyDeleteGood game, anyway!
THANK YOU RAVA! I didn't even see the level select option!
ReplyDeleteI don't like that this doesn't even use the SHIFT key!
