Nostalgia is a powerful sentiment, and Timespinner’s theme of destroying a character's investment in the present in order to go back in time to fix things does resonate well with its '90s-rooted aesthetic. But for those with no connection with the era Timespinner apes, there’s not much here to love. I enjoyed it, but it was a mild and affectionate enjoyment, a pleasure born of its lavish art style and my familiarity with its beats.
Timespinner takes everything that works so well in 16-bit Metroidvania titles and adds its own twist. Through the theme of time control navigating the world, creating a second map, and plot are all enhanced. None of the additional themes and features do anything to detract from the classic Metroidvania experience. Lunar Ray games have built an intricate world and populated it with enjoyable characters and fun objectives.
Timespinner es una buena carta de presentación para este estudio novato. Con su obsesión por adherirse a lo que era un juego de SNES pierde con respecto a otras obras que han sabido adaptarse mejor a los tiempos que corren, pero ello no implica que aquellos que busquen como aves rapaces nuevos juegos de aquella generación de los que disfrutar no vayan a hacerlo con este título.
