Vex 8 is the latest in one of the best precision-platformer series on the web: a stickman, a set of brutally exact courses, and mechanics that punish anything less than deliberate movement. This instalment adds red-green light traps that only let you move on one signal.
Nine acts, secret areas holding trophies, and a new infinite mode for players who want a single unending run rather than a level list. The series' appeal has always been the same — the physics are exact and consistent, so every failure is legibly your own mistake.
Red-green light traps that only permit movement on one signal, nine acts with secret trophy areas, and a new infinite mode.
Because the physics are exact and consistent. Every death is clearly the player's own mistake, which is what makes a hard platformer feel fair rather than cheap.
Yes — a light 2D game with nothing to install.
