Buy Flyhunter Origins

Flyhunter Origins is a mobile platformer game that got released on pc.
I havent played the mobile version so I cant judge if this was a good port.
You can change resolution, full screen/windowed mode and controls at the start of the game. This game supports a controller.

This game is aimed at the family with a younger audience as a focus.
The creators all work (or used to work) at Pixar.

In Flyhunter Origins you play Zak, a clumsy one-eyed alien, who seems to be the only survivor of an alien spacechip. Because of an incident all precious cargo has been ejected from the ship and landed on planet earth. It's your task to return it. This precious cargo is a bunch of exotic flies, hence "Flyhunter".

Armed with a Fly Swatter (later you get access to a gun) and a jetpack you have to find these flies. On your quest you'll find numerous obstacles and enemies (earth's insects). Zak is a very small alien, so earths creatures are about his size or a lot bigger. You can collect eggs you can use to upgrade your weapon stats (add +1 to damage, very basic).
At the end of a level when you're about to catch the fly the game changes to a 3d racing game, in which you have to smack the fly a few times. Odd imo, but it works.

Its a typical platformer. Controls are easy (jump/doublejump/shoot/melee). There are plenty of spawn points. Anyone can play this.

The good
- Lovable and funny maincharacter
- Very easy controls
- Controller support
- Nicely priced
- Pixar style artwork and characters
- 3D Racing
- Upgradable weaponry

The bad
- Hit detection seemed to be off sometimes. I had a lot of trouble defeating the big spider. Could be me though.
- Might be a bit too easy for the more mature players.
- Graphics arent really impressive

Overall a nice game for the younger audience. There are more impressive platformers around though.

Recommend? Yes, but not for everyone. 70/100

Cute little game that's fun to play and has a Ratchet and Clank/Jak and Daxter feel to the cutscenes. There's also a lot of whimsical humor and charm. It's obvious some talented artists came together for this.
