Lovely Planet Download PC

Lovely Planet is a first-person shooter platform video game developed by Indian indie developer Quicktequila and published by tinyBuild. It was released for Microsoft Windows, OS X and Linux in July 2014, and later for Xbox One in January 2016, and the PlayStation 4 and Wii U in April 2016.

The game received mixed reviews from critics, with praise given its visuals and soundtrack, but criticism for its presentation and level of difficulty.

Gameplay

The game is a speedrunning focused first-person shooter where the player must complete the level as fast as possible to progress. There is no plot, but rather "micro-levels" contained within larger areas. Being hit by a bullet, falling, or touching enemies causes the player to die instantly, and the player must memorize the levels to win.

The player's gun does not have an aiming reticle, and bullets move slowly, forcing the player to lead their shots. Players can earn up to 3 stars depending on how fast they beat a level, with the third star requiring perfect accuracy.

Certain level hazards also force the player forward, for example, apples that must be shot out of the sky or they will kill the player when they reach the ground.

Development

The game's art style and music has been compared by several critics to Katamari Damacy. Andras Neltz of Kotaku found the dissonance between the game's graphics, music and shooting mechanics to be "unsettling".
