After yesterday’s slightly rubbish LunchTimeWaster, I’m pleased to report that today’s effort is absolutely spectacular. Endeavor is one of the best flash games I have ever played.
It combines the atmosphere of an early Square-Enix title with the platforming and upgrade mechanics of a streamlined Metroidvania. It has charm, and we absolutely love the endurance bar, which makes even the most banal platforming seem meaningful. Endeavor is a game that has real weight. It really took me back to a simpler kind of gaming, managing to hit me right in the nostalgia bone whilst keeping me compelled with a simple, well paced story that unfolds as you play.
I loved it, and I think you will too. Endeavor is a genuinely beautiful experience.
