APPROACH WITH CAUTION ....
This guy's other game, "Milkmaid of the Milky Way" [MotM] is pretty good! But this .... This I cannot reccommend in good consious. There's a twitch component to "Embracelet" that mysteriously goes unmentioned, a component missing from MotM, which is one of the reasons why it's good. I play adventure games to deliberately avoid games where twitchiness is needed. If you think this is something that has a place in adventure games, then "Embracelet" is for you! However, if you also don't see it that way, then, like the title of this review says: approach with caution.
👍👍👍👍👍
Goooood game❤️
Could easily be 5 stars, if ...
I love the game and the story so far. But it‘s almost ruined by the awkward movement of the character and the stubborn camera. Please rework the jostick, even better give us controller support too so I can play Embracelet on the big screen, where it belongs. And use the upper half for camera movement by swiping please. I hope you address this in a coming update, can‘t wait to give you 5 stars then. UPDATE: Reduced to 1 star. Above still applies, but I won‘t waste any more time with these horrible, imprecise and simply not working controls. The only thing worse is the camera that NEVER looks the way I want it to. You managed to make a good game totally unplayable. Fix this thing already and add controller support. Aren‘t you even embarrassed to sell something like that? UPDATE II: Hi Mattis, I believe Controller Support would help, IF at the same time you make the character less jumpy. I really want to play the game, but right now it‘s way more frustrating than fun. Free camera would be optimal, if this is not possible, maybe you could make it more „intelligent“ for lack of a better word?

Progressive interactive narrative
Overall I preferred their 1st game...if you have the ability to make cool pixel art games, stick with that! I wasn’t a fan of the anti western values espoused in the narrative: The big bad capitalist drilling company, the “I hate how much those fearful, Ignorant Christians hate” theme, property destruction as a form of activism, the group of friends even call each other “comrades.” We all need to have a profound gratitude for the values and systems that lifted billions of people around the world out of poverty...even in the video games we play
Great game!!
I loved the story in this game! It was sweet and engaging. The controls to make Jesper move are frustrating at times, but that is the only negative I found. I finished the game last night and loved it!!! I gave it 4 stars due to the need to tweak the movement of characters .
Good but buggy
Fun game with a lovely story. It’s quite buggy though and will get stuck or crash at many cutscenes. At this point, I’m now at an impasse and cannot play further past a crash point. Please fix soon so I can finish the story!
Fixed an auto-save issue in one of the scenes. Thanks for playing Embracelet!
