This game is just... absolute peak.
Not only it this an amazing tribute to the janky glitches found in n64 games like Zelda, but it is also would be completely amazing and stand on it's own as just a normal n64 tribute. Unlike a lot of games based around puzzle solving by exploiting bugs, which I find often have thier intentional glitches feel to artificial to feel like naturally occurring game bugs(not shade to those games I like them). There was never a point while playing this that I felt like I could reasonably determine what was an intentional "bug" or an actual glitch I uncovered. Paired with a really cool story and great music.
Abandoned 64 keeps the feeling on n64 games whilst modernizing the movement so that the jank of things like the lakitu camera from Mario 64 or other such tedious game mechanics from the time aren't present.
Honestly less of a review and more of a rant about how much I adore this game. If I have somehow convinced even one person to download this after reading this comment than I can assure you, you wont be let down.
I can't wait to see what gems you or your team make in the future, so please keep creating art as lovely as this was to experience.
made an account just to comment. lol. i actually liked and enjoyed the game until the part which im assuming was the end but its where there are pulses of red waves coming at you through the room and i kept getting to the sign where you have to do the infinite sword, could it have been a bit easier to do that "glitch" because its honestly what got me to stop playing since i kept falling and dying over and over.. annoying. it was very fun up to that point.
The Zelda glitch references were phenomenal, and the puzzles were very clever.
It's surprising how clear the puzzles in the game are, despite looking so confusing at a glance.
Gold star from me!
awesome concept and fun to play! **SPOILERS** i got the same ending no matter if i spared or killed the serpent. not sure if that's supposed to happen, but cool game nonetheless. would love to see more!
Honestly one of my favorite games I've played in awhile, loved it!
I really enjoyed this! I want to replay majora's mask now lol
Full Play No Commentary
Wow, this game is super cool ->
im sorry but this is just a crow 64 rip off at least say that the game was inspired by crow 64 or something
yes because every N64 inspired game is a rip off to that... okay
I'm gonna be real with you here, I've never heard of crow 64 in my entire life until today.
Gave it a Lets Play, was able to beat it, though unsure just how much content in the game I missed and if I just had skipped most things or not and went straight to the end in decent time or not, was silly/interesting
I enjoyed the concept along with the meta-narrative. I liked the mystique of this game and am interested to see what you all put together next!
I made a YouTube video about this game and a few others where I discussed the story a bit and offer feedback.

Really cool
Very inventive! I'd like to see more of this world and style! Seems it could go on a shelf right next to Crypt Worlds!
Liked the main character too
Show post...
cool vibe N64 ;d and so CRAZY PUZZLE BUG ;D
It's always great to see an indie game being produced with inspiration from the N64 games. This one is amazing. Congratulations guys.
