Splosion Man is a 2D side scrolling puzzle platformer that your objective is to “splode” yourself to get from one point to another. “Splode” is basically another word for jump, as the main character doesn’t jump, he explodes himself which lifts himself off the ground. When the game was first released the downloaded the demo. The Demo only let you play until level 7 I think it was and I had a good time and thought I would really like this game so I decided to buy it. That’s when the game took a major turn, after the first few demo levels the game started to get really, really hard. Nice little trick developers are trying to do now, show people that there games are fun and entertaining in the demo then once you buy it they throw you into levels that start to make you want to rip out your hair. The game gets real challenging, really fast and your going to die, a lot. There have been times that I have just had to walk away from the game and come back to it a few days later just to try to beat a single level. The game is fun though, and once you do beat one of those challenging levels you do feel like you accomplished something, even though you really haven’t because the next stage is just as hard if not worse.
