  • graphics3 mentions

    The game's graphics are characterized by a crude, early 2010s aesthetic that some players find charming despite its intentional ugliness. The visual design effectively captures the goblin theme, creating a cohesive experience that blends various models and set pieces, contributing to a unique beauty in its imperfections. Overall, the graphics reflect the game's early access status while maintaining a consistent artistic vision.

    • “I've decided to write a review mostly because I want to provide feedback on the game, but also because I feel some affection towards the crude aesthetic of the game.”
    • “The visual aspects of all goblins feel true to the goblin aesthetic. The game shows a decent amount of cohesion in both lore and gameplay, so I'll assume the graphics are intentional as well. It plays like a game you'd find in the early 2010s; it's somewhat ugly but it isn't trying to be. There is a beauty in the ugliness, and it manages to blend whatever models and set pieces the game throws together into a somewhat consistent experience.”

    • “It may or may not be intentional, after all the game is in an early access state, but the visual aspects of all goblins feel true to the goblin aesthetic.

    The gameplay of "All Goblin" is reminiscent of early 2010s titles, featuring a unique charm in its visual style that blends cohesion in lore and mechanics. While currently linear, the developer's promise of expanding the map suggests potential for more exploration and puzzle elements in the future. The platforming and slingshot mechanics are enjoyable, though players may find resource availability, like rock piles, somewhat limiting.

    • “If you're the kind of person that enjoys seeing a game grow and want to participate in a somewhat niche corner of the internet, then you would probably enjoy All Goblin. It's dirt cheap on discount, so if you wait, you might get it for less than a dollar. Most importantly, at the time of review, the developer promises that the game's map will keep growing. If eventually the game's progression becomes less linear and we have a much bigger map to explore, then I can see the game taking on a more puzzle/exploration-oriented gameplay. I'd like to see such a small game grow and develop, and if you enjoy the idea of seeing that too, then you should try the game.”
    • “Platforming is decent, and the slingshot mechanic is fun too, although at a point it felt like there weren't enough rock piles, as I had to keep going back to the sacrifice sanctum to grab more rocks.”
    • “The game shows a decent amount of cohesion in both lore and gameplay. It plays like a game you'd find in the early 2010s; it's somewhat ugly, but it isn't trying to be.

    • “The gameplay feels outdated, reminiscent of early 2010s titles, and while it has a certain charm, it lacks the polish and innovation expected from modern games.”
    • “At the moment, the gameplay is quite linear and repetitive, which detracts from the overall experience and makes it feel more like a chore than an enjoyable adventure.”
    • “While the game has potential, the current state of gameplay is frustratingly simplistic, leaving little room for exploration or meaningful interaction.”
