However, I found it weird that the third region has harder levels than the last one. Secret levels and collectibles will also appear on some level which can give a harder challenge for those who seek it.
Although most of them require you to traverse the area to reach the exit, some will have variations in it, allowing you to solve a puzzle before you can move to the next one. 4 regions in total with varying levels will await to be cleared. LevelsĮach region focuses on a certain mechanic. Controlling the character becomes weird and stiff as a result, which is more noticeable at the last level since it focuses on moving around. I got stunlocked once with my character floating on the screen because of this and I found that the character’s movement will often mess up if you do this, forcing you to press either the left or right button to fix it. The game already restricts your movement so that you can’t move any platforms while you are moving, but there are cases when you can register action right after you move the platforms around. You need to wait for the character to finish doing any action before doing the next, or risk getting stunlocked. Switching the screen will also change the gravity, turning the previously unreachable area within your reach. There were a lot of times when I released my arrow button only to find that my character is already one or two tiles forward, killing him in the process since there is a hazard waiting for him. Holding it for a longer time will move it faster, and while the speed is alright, the acceleration is not. Your character doesn’t behave like platformer games – he is so heavy that you need to hold an arrow key longer than usual to move it a bit. Luckily, restarting a level is simple and fast. Some decoys will also be placed on the map, so you must plan your move carefully. More mechanics will be added later on, including the ability to move platforms around. Doing so can only be done by touching a certain object that is placed on the level, and you can only move the screen based on what the object dictates. Tetragon‘s gameplay focuses on rotating screens. There seems to be some kind of background in the world of Tetragon, but the game doesn’t explain it enough for me to understand its importance. The ending also doesn’t seem to be that important either, and the twist that was happening at the end feels empty since I didn’t know what happened. Sure, you might still follow your initial objective, but there isn’t any correlation between the dialogues and your goal. However, the dialogues that happen afterward seem to contradict that scene.

The storytelling is done through a series of images at first, showing what you need to do. I won’t have any complaint if it looks good, but the font doesn’t match the background at all. There doesn’t seem to be any effort to it, especially since there are only texts that are placed behind a beautiful-looking background. The main menu looks weird compared to the in-game visuals. The animation that happens after you finish each level also looks great with it zooming in to the next level, giving an impression that you are making progress. The first region is my favorite – it is focused on a forest-like area with a lot of greeneries in it, making you feel calm whenever you see it.
Each region has a different theme that looks unique, yet still pleasant to the eye.
