Reading the other reviews here, you would get the sense that this is overall a disappointing sequel to Lovely Planet(a game that you should definitely play).
But that really isnt the case here, because this is a spiritual sequel, and not a direct one.
You see, Lovely Planet was a game about jumping momentum and preciseness, and it gave alot of freedom to the player to figure out the fastest route to the goal, being a favourite among speedrunners.
Lovely Planet Arcade isnt that game.
Where Lovely Planet takes inspiration from arena shooters like Quake 3 and Unreal Tournament, Lovely Planet Arcade gets its inspiration from Doom and arcade on-rail shooters.
Like Doom, you cannot move on the y-axis, making it so you can only move your gun left and right. This completely changes the way the game is meant to be played versus Lovely Planet.
And I can see why people would be mad about this change, since they will not find the player freedom they had in Lovely Planet. But that's really their own fauly, since this isnt being sold a sequel at all.
Like those old arcade on rail shooters, the fun of the game is figuring out where every enemy will pop up, knowing where to point right away, because otherwise you will get shot and have to start the level again.
Levels are very short, A la Super Meat Boy, so the trial and error nature of the game is completely acceptable.
If you enjoy mastering and acing games, shaving off mili seconds of your high score, and twitch shooters where you cant miss a single shot, then this game is for you.
If that isnt your cup of tea, then you shoul try something else. This game has no pretenses about what it is. There is no story or main goal, outside of completing the sequence of levels with all of the stars which you get by completing in the fastest time possible, and it contains a deceptively charming artstyle and soundtrack that masks a very punishing and challenging game.
But dont let that dissuade you from playing it, it never gets frustrating to the point of giving up.
Levels are almost like puzzles, where you need to figure out your sequence of movements, and once you figure that out the level turns into a cake walk.
Once you finish all of the levels you unlock two new modes: a mirror mode, which just mirrors the levels to give you a sense that you are playing new stuff, and the fast mode, which makes the game twice and fast and its a really fun experience to try the first few levels with.
As for downsides, if you arent very interested in 100% the game, the game is over very fast, lasting about 3 hours top.
Also, the last act of the game presents a new mechanic where certain enemies makes the screen go black until you hit another enemy. This can get very frustrating, because it makes you guess where stuff is while blind, and thats never fun.
Overall, I'd say buy it. It really depends on what kind of player you are, but I think there is enough here for everyone.. Lovely Planet has always had a special place in my heart and this game captures the same emotions for me.
It's still fun and fast, with the same great art style, music, and sound effects. Mechanics of each act are interesting and their implementation evolves from level to level.
Lovely Planet Arcade feels quite different from the original, but it still delivers the same fun experience. Can't wait for the next iteration of the series!. An old school fps with a chinese look. It's hard, so be prepared.
Also have in mind that it is very different to the first game, so it's not a platformer anymore.
Overall I must say I enjoyed the first one more.. To address some of the other reviews.<\/b>
No, it's not the same as the previous Lovely Planet. The "Arcade" in the title imples that it's something different. And that's not a bad thing. The original Lovely Planet was great! Fantastic! This Lovely Planet is just a little different, but still great.
There's no vertical aim, meaning you only control which horizontal direction you're aiming in. That's one of the biggest changes and it's something that takes a few minutes to get used to.
There's less emphasis on exploration and mapping out your own path through the level to try and be just a little bit faster. There is of course a fastest path through the course, but there's less freedom to make up your own. The speed-running in this installment is more based on skill rather than ingenuity, although it does take some ingenuity to find the quickest, most efficient path though the level. But once you find that, your speed is mostly dependent on how skillfully you can navigate the level and shoot the baddies. I think more so than the original, this game has more puzzle elements to the level design, but don't get me wrong, it's still balls-to-the-wall difficult to execute in the harder levels.
A few cons.<\/b>
There is currently no level editor. It really seems like a game that would lend itself well to that, so it's a shame that it's not there. The built-in levels are great and all, but replaying the same levels to try and set a new PB can get repetitive.
There are no leaderboards. This one really bugs me. I'd love to see how my times are compared to other people's instead of just trying to beat my own all the time. While the original Lovely Planet had leaderboards, I'm pretty sure the top times were broken or full of people glitching the game is various ways, so that might be why there are no leaderboards this time around. Because he couldn't differentiate cheaters. Who knows. It's just a guess.
TL;DR It's a great game. No vertical aim takes some getting used to. More puzzle-based in the level design but still very mechanically difficult to pull off in the fastest way possible. If you don't care too much about beating your own times, then you might only get a few hours of entertainment of it, but it's not an expensive game. Sadly no leaderboards or level editor :(. More downplayed and puzzle-oriented version of it's predecessor. While the original 'Lovely Planet' has 'Quake' vibes, this game can be compared to 'Doom' instead. Your vertical view is locked and the platforming elements are (almost) absent. And although you probably will still have some fun, i say buy the original instead.. You shotgun your hostile neighbours. The original IMO was a masterpiece but i went in to this intending to judge it as it's own game the first 3 acts are fun but far too easy and short then act 4 introduces enemies that give you a grey screen when you kill them until you shoot another enemy and friendlys the shoot at you that can't be parried this doesn't give a fun challenge it just makes the game irritating and imo unplayable very disapointed.. Absolutely love it! Downloaded it last night and currently going threough Act 2. A fun game that you can jump in and play for a few minutes... or can spend hours perfecting the route to take and sequence to take down enemies to get a three star rating.
Simple arcade shooting on the surface, really interesting puzzle game if you want it to be!

As a huge fan of the original Lovely Planet, it's with a heavy heart that I have to write a negative review for its succesor. I've played Lovely Planet for 250+ hours, and I held WR runs in many categories, so I feel that I'm obligated to do this.
This game is not for speedrunners. That's all there is to it. No chance of sequence breaks, no vertical aim, no glitches to shoot through walls. Honestly, there's nearly no freedom of movement. The ability to choose how to route your levels was what made the original so great. Jumping in this game is next to useless as far as routing goes. The levels railroad you to take the intended route.
As a casual game, I'm sure this is jolly good fun, but as someone who was expecting a true sequel, I'm left with a bitter taste in my mouth. I'm sorry, but I just can't enjoy this game.
