This is a wonderful take for Kirby. Abilities that can be upgraded, quirky brief power-ups, a main hub world of sorts that gets unlocks as you progress and all that with cute and pitoresque visuals as well as interesting character designs. This feels like the 3D World/Odyssey of the franchise. Absolute buy!

[@xbenas]

For me, it feels like Balan Wonderland, and we all know how that game went...

[@MarcMarioMaster]

@@xbenas But other than that game, HAL knows how to distribute buttons. The whole problematic with Balan's game was that they tried to extremely simplify and double-map button functions. There were also way, way too many transformations, some with the same or no proper function even. The Kirby franchise did build on that mechanic since Kirby's Adventure on the NES. I don't think anybody really needs to worry about them suddenly forgetting how to build their gameplay around something they have been using in a dedicated 2D-platforming franchise just because they are in a 3D environment now.

[@Coplanersirtax9]

@@xbenas how is this even remotely similar to that game? lmao

[@user-account-not-found]

Marc you should do reviews

[@MarcMarioMaster]

@@user-account-not-found Ah, there are surely already people who will notice the enjoyable aspects of such takes for that (mostly already rather solid) platformer franchise. I bet somebody like Nitrorad will review Kirby when he notices that the pink Puffball has ventured into 3D. I'd be also happy to see the Yoshi games try something new and go onto a grander quest , possibly going into the same new dimensions outside 2.5D. Not saying that Yoshi's Woolly World or Crafted World weren't with cute ideas but to me at least the original Yoshi's Island felt special in terms of boss and level designs.

This game is like a perfect combination of Air Ride’s exploration, and Crystal Shard’s experimenting with endless combinations of abilities. I would have been obsessed with this game as a kid. Kirby is long overdue for an experiment like this. I never liked the bland 2.5D Kirby platformers, so this is exciting to me.

[@gustavoduarte3507]

I mean, i respect your opinion, some Kirby games can be a bit bland in their presentation, but bland is a very bold statement for the series overall. Have you played Planet Robobot? It has a more unique aesthetic and the levels all follow a central theme that is very important to the story, with a very fun main gimmick and clever level design and puzzles, with even some plot twists and terrifying lore details. I really recommend it Overall, i'm a huuuge Kirby fan and this game cannot come sooner, but i like to respect each installment on its own, and although i agree that the 2.5D games are starting to become stale, i think they're all amazing games worth checking out, with Star Allies being a great celebration and finale to the 2.5D segment of the series.

[@2CoolBros.]

@@gustavoduarte3507 Thank you for appreciating Star Allies. lol

[@C_Arson]

@@gustavoduarte3507 I agree with you. Kirby definitely needed a refresh, but that doesn't mean the past few games aren't worth anyone's time. Some act as if every modern Kirby game is "New Super Mario Bros" levels of bland just because they're mechanically similar, but the "Return to Dream Land Quadrilogy" was significantly better about that. The 3DS games were definitely not bland from an aesthetical viewpoint (Planet Robobot has an obvious visual identity, but Triple Deluxe also has a light fairy tale vibe I enjoyed). Return to Dream Land also had some solid level backgrounds if you actually stopped to look at them, and even Star Allies had some cool looking environments in the second half. To me, the gameplay improved with each game (except for Star Allies, which at least still had the Friend Abilities and the Dream Friends to set it apart in some way), whether it be through the addition of multiple planes in Triple Deluxe or a more fulfilling gimmick (the Robobot). Each game also had their own unique villains/stories and types of music to help them stand apart from each other.
