Also, when playing as Carol, players will miss out on bits of the story, which makes for an even more confusing and disjointed experience, as the narrative was clearly written with Lilac in mind. Even worse some of the cutscenes barely add anything of value to the story or development of characters, like a drawn-out slumber party scene between the protagonists in their clubhouse that would have felt more at home in a fan fiction story about the character’s lives than in the actual game. On top of that, the voice acting is inconsistent both in terms of quality and fidelity some lines sound like they were recorded on a professional setup and others almost sound like a Skype call recording. The story isn’t all that interesting or original - an evil villain with an army of robots steals a powerful stone - but mostly because the other bits of the story are hard to follow and make little sense. The mid-air dash can also be used similarly to Sonic’s spin dash to be able to instantly get a boost of speed from a dead stop.Īdventure mode is the story-driven mode that includes plenty of cutscenes with fully voiced lines, but it is also probably my least favorite mode. The level design doesn’t encourage the use of the mid-air dash very often, a shame since it’s a unique move, but the times you do need it feel solid and thought out. The main character is Lilac, a furry dragon who has a punch attack, a kick, a double jump that causes her to whirlwind enemies, and a mid-air dash that works similarly to the one from the classic Rocket Knight Adventures, which is by all means a good thing. There are three characters on offer and each play differently. Simply touching an enemy doesn’t inflict damage instead, they have to be attacking, which can be both a good and a bad thing good because you’ll almost never get slowed down, and bad for a similar reason, as levels end far too quickly.
However, instead of rolling or jumping onto enemies to kill them, the two main protagonists, Lilac and Carol, have a dedicated attack button that makes them punch and kick.
Having started out as a Sonic the Hedgehog fan game, Freedom Planet unsurprisingly looks, sounds, and plays similarly to the beloved original Sega Genesis trilogy with a hint of some of the newer Sonic games.
