La difficoltà di base è davvero elevata e nonostante possa piacere a molti, per quelli esperti ma più attempati come me, potrebbe risultare frustrante in alcuni casi. Tanto per farvi un esempio, ci ho messo 20 minuti a sconfiggere il primo boss: un paio di errori e tocca rifare d’accapo.

R&S ha il sapore dei giochi di una volta, quelli delle generazioni 8 e 16 bit, ma con uno stile moderno e avvincente. Sfoggia una estetica davvero sontuosa e la condisce con una colonna sonora piacevole ed efficace.

Oftast rör det sig från bildruta till bildruta där en ny delikat uppgift måste knytas upp. Det känns ofta som små minibossar och tack vare det finns det många inre belöningar att plocka upp längs vägen som håller spelaren sysselsatt. Det upplägget skulle kunna torrlägga bossfajterna, kännas som man redan har gjort det, men så blir det inte. De är oerhört praktfulla och tar spelet till sin yttersta spets.

Rise and Shine is yet another game published by Adult Swim that hits the spot, both in entertainment value and replayability. I had a few issues with the game freezing, to which I had to restart from the beginning of a section. I adored Headlander, and I’m equally in love with Rise and Shine. It’s not the longest of games, but its gorgeous style, great control scheme and constant gaming references offer plenty of reasons to keep playing and come back to. Super Awesome Hyper Dimensional Mega Team have done a fantastic job here, and I’m really glad I got a chance to play it.

Una grata sorpresa en forma de juego Indie que hará disfrutar tanto a los jugadores de corte más clásico como a las nuevas generaciones. Difícil, divertido y nostálgico garantiza horas de diversión. Su precio reducido hacen de la compra algo imprescindible.

A love letter to gaming that has more than enough to stand on its own merits, Rise & Shine could be a dark horse for one of the best of 2017.

What all this adds up to is a game that is incredibly unique and challenging, while at the same time being a visual delight. Admittedly, there were times when I got mad at the game and wanted to give up; I thought the section I was stuck at was impossible to pass. Thankfully with a little time away and some fresh eyes, I always managed to make progress. Rise & Shine takes many risks with its design and blending of gameplay genres; thankfully it came out the other end smelling like roses. While I don’t think any game is perfect, Rise & Shine is incredibly exemplary. Highly recommended.

Rise & Shine es una carta de amor a los juegos de antaño, es un homenaje a las arcadias y a aquellos títulos con los que crecimos muchos de nosotros. Es un juego divertido, retador, y aunque puede parecer que es “más de lo mismo” sinceramente te recomiendo que le des una oportunidad.

Es un juego más que notable al que le pasan factura dos cosas: lo corto que se hace y una historia que se siente desaprovechada debido al rico universo que tenían disponible. Sin embargo, el apartado artístico es una auténtica maravilla, así como el sonoro. En términos jugables, si buscáis un reto y una aventura de esas que os dejan satisfechos cuando la termináis, por 15€ no tenéis excusa para no haceros con el primer desarrollo ''grande'' de SuperMegaTeam.

Rise and Shine es un shooter 2D de amplia calidad, cuidado hasta el más mínimo detalle. Por un lado dispone de una cantidad de humor al más puro estilo Adult Swim. Por otro, una cantidad de acción sin descanso que, eso sí, puede llegar a frustrar en exceso. Rise and Shine es un reto en el que no te cansarás de reaparecer y volver a intentarlo.

Rise & Shine is a fun side-scrolling puzzle platformer that effortlessly blends together some fantastic functions and mechanics, which is further married to fluid and satisfying gameplay. There’s a great deal of variety not just to the level design but to the enemy variants too, which helps to keep the game feeling fresh throughout. Sadly the campaign is much shorter than expected, lasting south of five hours in total. Granted, the implementation of added collectibles pushes forward a couple of extra hours worth of play, but that’s not enough to justify the overall story length. That being said, the price point is more than reasonable so it’s hardly like you’re going to break the bank either way. Another brilliant thumbs up is the ridiculously funny humor that will have you in fits of laughter and stay with you until well after the credits roll. If you’re looking for an innovative and challenging adventure to begin the year with, Rise & Shine is a great place to start.

Rise & Shine es un título único, encandilador, entrañable y muy disfrutable. A su favor lo tiene todo para atraparte y hacer que salves “Mundojuego” acompañando a estos dos protagonistas tan carismáticos. Quizás en su contra juegue su corta duración, pero sin lugar a dudas es una experiencia que no deberías pasar por alto este año, más si eres amante de los retos y el sector de los videojuegos, dado que es todo un homenaje a los grandes clásicos.

Le jeu est magnifique, les couleurs sont chaudes et riches et les détails fleurissent dans tous les sens sans pour autant polluer l’immersion. La durée de vie se fera selon votre humeur et votre doigté. La difficulté supérieure appelée Iron Man se débloquera à la fin du jeu, histoire de satisfaire les plus hardcores d’entre nous avide de challenge mais aussi les chasseurs de succès que je suis. La direction artistique, les références et l’humour tout y est. L’année commence très bien avec ce titre, véritable bouffée d’oxygène dans ce genre . Malgré sa difficulté au premier abord, le jeu pourra être apprécier par tout le monde avec un double regard et le temps passé dessus glissera sur nous comme une chips sur le t-shirt d’un geek.

There’s little more that I can say about Rise & Shine now, having put all of my thoughts down onto paper (well, so to speak). For the most part, it’s a special little game that will challenge and impress players with its charming presentation and unforgiving gameplay. It is, however, not a perfect game, although that’s easier to overlook given that this is a studio’s debut effort, and a very good one at that. 

Rise & Shine does a brilliant job of enticing players into it’s challenging gameplay; with jaw-dropping art work, adorable animations and cameo appearances from some of gamings greats (and not so greats).

El trabajo realizado por Super Awesome Hyper Dimensional Mega Team es sin duda una obra de arte que merece ser experimentada. El equilibrio entre puzles y disparos es perfecto, gráficamente tremendo, correcto el apartado sonoro y por ultimo sus geniales diálogos hacen que este título sea una necesidad en nuestro catálogo de juegos. Su único punto flaco es su duración, es demasiado breve ya que nos deja con ganas de más, pero, ¿Podría ser esa la voluntad de los diseñadores?

Rise & Shine es la forma perfecta de iniciar este 2017 para la industria española, ya que estamos ante un juego realmente bueno en todo lo que hace y lo que propone, ya sea su apartado técnico, lo ajustado de su jugabilidad y lo divertido de su planteamiento general. Basar un juego en las referencias a otros clásicos puede salir mal, pero aquí el resultado es encomiable.

Rise & Shine is a great little title that incorporates a few gaming styles well. it features a decent soundtrack and a good handful of gaming character parodies that will sure put a smile on your face. Shooting is a little tricky to begin with and will require some getting used to to get through some of the tougher sections of the game. In all though a nice little challenging game that's well worth picking up.

Rise & Shine se ha convertido por derecho en una de las primeras sorpresas de este 2017. Un título entretenidísimo y muy variado, desafiante, bien diseñado, con un apartado visual precioso y con un atractivo ineludible para cualquiera que lleva años disfrutando de este hobby. Quizá lo intransigente que es con el jugador no lo haga muy recomendable para los usuarios con menos paciencia, ya que la muerte aquí es una constante (pudiendo provocar cierta frustración y hastío), pero si os apetece una buena aventura que mezcle con acierto puzles, plataformas, acción y amor por los videojuegos, os recomendamos darle una oportunidad al viaje de Rise y Shine.

After playing over 150 Xbox One games (and many more on various other consoles), I have found that nearly all games share several aspects with other games. This is not a bad thing so long as it is done in moderation and games with similar mechanics or aesthetics don’t start to actually copy one another.  In Rise & Shine, players will traverse platforms, collect power ups, and shoot enemies with an oversized gun. At first glance this all seems pretty familiar, but just a few minutes with the game and players will see that Rise & Shine uses these common game aspects in tandem in a refreshing way.

Simply getting to the end of a level isn’t all that hard, it’s the sheer number of enemies and puzzles that are nearly always solved with accurate shooting or simply more bullets. Since the game sports such simple controls (run, aim, jump, shoot, switch bullets), tackling these puzzles and enemies feels wonderful and rewarding. Whether it be because you figured out which bullet type to use or got a headshot on a space marine and got to watch his head exploded cleanly off their shoulders. I enjoyed all of this plenty until certain areas became too difficult either by having too many enemies (thus too many bullets to dodge) or puzzles that require players to guide a bullet to a target (which is behind obstacles) while dodging enemy bullets and lasers. A section being difficult wouldn’t be too bad if it weren’t for the slightly too long respawn times.

In Rise & Shine, the protagonist, Rise, is able to respawn indefinitely so long as he carries Shine, a legendary weapon that has many important properties. This is all explained much better in-game through the linear story that takes no time at all to start-up. Within the first few minutes of the game, players will be given Shine and tasked with saving the world. The cliché here is intentional as even the character that gives you Shine looks awfully similar to a certain green tunic wearing adventure we all know. Having such a general, overused plot (unlikely hero gets magic weapon, saves world) allows the game to get away with all the references that it has on offer.

In fact, the entire lore of the game relies heavily on these references. The game’s world is called Gamearth and is correctly inspired in every aspect from the scenery to the characters the player will meet. There are several unique and original characters, but there are just as many that are inspired by (or direct references to) characters from other games. Personally, I think most gamers, especially Xbox gamers, will be able to easily tell who Rise’s father is supposed to look like.

Even though the writing in the game does cover a ton of the references, I feel like it could hold its own if the game had its own lore and what not. The writing breathes life and personality into the game’s characters as they deal with one another. Besides developing character, the writing is constantly making jokes that will at least make most players crack a smile. In fact, I found myself smiling throughout most of this game and don’t have too many complaints.

From the adorable characters to the satisfying music and sound effects, Rise & Shine delivers in droves. Having several levels filled with either hordes of enemies or just a few very large enemies such as bosses and mini-bosses. There are quite a few of these scattered throughout the game and each requires their own technique to beat. These larger enemies always seem to show up at the perfect time as well due to the game’s linear level design. Even though I’d normally dislike this linearity, it feels natural in Rise & Shine. Combined with the various power ups found throughout the game, the levels feel like they are constant action from start to finish. Each level I played in the game was fun and kept me engaged until I ran into one of those areas that felt far more difficult than the areas before it. Other than that, I would tell anyone that is even slightly interested in the game to give it a shot.

All things considered though, if you like a good challenge and value quality gameplay over length, which you should, Rise & Shine is a great little title and a great start to the gaming year. The visuals impress from start to finish, the audio constantly delights despite a lack of voice acting, and the frenetic action is varied and addictive. It’s a game for gamers who’ll chuckle at every little visual cue that’s generously strewn throughout its running time and then go back to see if there’s any they may have missed. Those with little patience may quickly find themselves throwing their pads in despair, but those who can hack it will be utterly charmed.

Not to say this makes a negative impact on Rise and Shine as the good really does outshine here. This has been one of the most refreshing and enjoyable side scrolling shooters I’ve experienced in a long time and love the lateral, thought-provoking action gameplay. I loved the colourful and beautiful art style and the fantastic, respectable homage to gaming.

This is an absolute recommendation from me despite some short comings. 

Rise and Shine ist das perfekte Spiel für den geneigten Ü-Dreißiger, der sich mit Vorliebe in die guten 2D-Zeiten zurückversetzen und dabei auch noch gehörig gefordert werden möchte. Zwar ist die Rettung von Gameroth kein reines Run and Shoot-Game, sondern liefert eher taktisch anspruchsvolle Duelle bei denen Denkvermögen mindestens so wichtig ist, wie Geschicklichkeit. Die Schusstechnik ist mit seiner Twin-Stick-Mechanik zudem sicher nicht jedermanns Sache und könnte zusammen mit dem doch hohen Schwierigkeitsgrad Skeptiker schnell frustrieren. Dafür punktet Rise and Shine mit toller Optik, abwechslungsreichen Boss-Gegnern, hervorragendem Humor und eben auch mit feiner Steuerung. Die Spieldauer hätte jedoch mit ca. vier Stunden auch etwas wohlwollender ausfallen können. Wer also auf kreative und dabei harte Oldschool-Kost steht, der wird mit Rise and Shine einige vergnügliche Momente erleben. Wer sich nicht ganz so sicher ist, wartet vielleicht besser auf eine Preissenkung, da der Titel mit 14,99 Euro, gemessen an der Spielzeit, ordentlich zu Buche schlägt.

Si vous êtes un amateur de jeu de plateforme en 2D assez difficile, il n'y a aucun doute que Rise & Shine saura vous plaire. Malgré une histoire peu développée, l'excellente jouabilité du titre va vous embarquer dans l'action et les nombreux casse-têtes vous creuseront beaucoup les méninges.

Un juego divertido y muy disfrutable, aunque se quede corto en su propuesta y llegue a desesperar por las imprecisiones de su sistema de control, si lo juegas en consola. Si ese no es el caso, disfrutarás mientras te dure, con su peculiar mezcla de acción y puzles, con una altísima dosis de humor.

Como conclusión final, no podemos sino rendirnos ante las virtudes de Rise & Shine, que llega como un clarísimo homenaje a todos aquellos buenos momentos de los 90 en los que la diversión se medía por balas desperdigadas en el suelo. Es una lástima que dure tan poco y que no resulte demasiado rejugable, pero sin duda esos minutos serán gloria bendita para todos los veteranos del lugar y todos aquellos que busquen de una propuesta divertida y frenética a partes iguales.

Rise & Shine nos gustará más de lo que nos divierte. La mecánica de juego tan exigente choca frontalmente con los tiempos de carga después de cada muerte, un problema que esperemos logren solventar con una actualización, porque realmente se convierte en un problema. Nos queda un juego brillante en cuanto a su puesta en escena, tanto por su impactante colorido como por la cantidad (y calidad) de los guiños que se han introducido, pero que no mantiene el mismo nivel en cuanto a jugabilidad por las mencionadas interrupciones de ritmo. Continuamente estaremos probando para progresar poco a poco, lo que sumado a las numerosas muertes supondrán cortes jugables que terminan por penalizarle. Un gran juego en apariencia al que le ha faltado muy muy poco para conseguir el mismo resultado a la hora de pulsar los botones.

Rise & Shine, per certi versi, ci ha ricordato quella pietra miliare che va sotto il nome di Metal Slug. E, per un momento, il nostro cuore ha ricominciato a palpitare. Un inferno di esplosioni e nemici pronti a farci la pelle, pattern d'attacco calibrati al millimetro e morte, morte ovunque (anche se purtroppo, cosa piuttosto grave, nella modalità principale non esiste il Game Over). Il titolo degli spagnoli Super Awesome Hyper Dimensional Mega Team è splendido a vedersi, nonché cattivo e intransigente quanto basta per conquistarci - e metterci alla prova con diversi puzzle ambientali ben congegnati - per le quasi cinque ore spese in compagnia del ragazzo e della sua arma leggendaria. Rise & Shine, però, soffre di una cronica carenza di contenuti che azzoppa il fattore rigiocabilità e non riesce a stuzzicare il giocatore con sfide o altri succosi extra. Una volta portata a termine l'avventura, insomma, non si trova alcun valido motivo per tornare su Gamearth.

Rise & Shine feels like a game that tries too hard to be too much, ultimately coming together in a fun package that could have been great. The action is tight and rewarding, the gameplay is varied, and the difficulty is satisfying, if a bit frustrating in some parts. Fans of old-school arcade shooters will find plenty to love here, even if the jokes don’t always hit home.

Rise & Shine, sulla carta, ha tutto per diventare un vero classico dei videogiochi: una grafica disegnata a mano curatissima con animazioni splendide, un'infinità di cameo, citazioni e frecciatine alla storia dei videogiochi, un gameplay run 'n' gun frenetico con una difficoltà pure piuttosto alta, capace quindi di offrire divertimento notevole. Tutto questo però funziona a tratti: alcuni dei combattimenti finiscono in una serie di trial and error, o durano fin troppo grazie a obiettivi che richiedono troppo tempo, per non parlare delle sezioni puzzle-platform dove dobbiamo guidare proiettili telecomandati che spezzano fin troppo il ritmo del gioco o di alcune hitbox dubbie. Nei momenti in cui Rise & Shine fa quello che gli riesce meglio, però, è soddisfacente, esilarante e brutale al punto giusto: se siete appassionati del genere, dateci un'occhiata!

It only took three hours to get through Rise and Shine in its entirety but it was an enjoyable experience. With beautiful visuals and some exciting boss fights, there's plenty of flash to get your attention. The combat is interspersed between cool set pieces and interesting puzzles, which keep things fresh as you die your way through the game. The only hiccup was the finale where two fights accelerated the difficulty to such an extreme degree that playtime can nearly be doubled. That, combined with a hit and miss story, made this game a little weaker than it could have been. Ultimately, Rise and Shine is a game that fans of the genre and those looking for a quick experience will enjoy, but hesitant players may not find their experience worth the purchase.

Despite its brevity ultimately doing some notable harm to it, Rise & Shine is still ultimately a solid platformer for the most part, one that has a lot of cute callbacks to classic video games while still having its own unique charm, along with some impressive graphics and nifty ideas sprinkled throughout. The action gets nice and intense, and save for the end, puts up a meaty yet fair challenge. So while it isn’t exactly the greatest at skewering gaming culture while also honoring it, it’s still an overall good game, and one that may indeed be worth checking out. At the very least, you get another chance to kill the Duck Hunt dog again, just in case you still couldn’t get enough of that before.

Once I defeated the final boss, I felt a sense of accomplishment and pride; my victory was well-earned. I had a great time playing through Rise & Shine, but sadly, I know I'll never go back to it. I wanted to complete it; I very much so enjoyed the final twist of the story and the end "solution" even more. Enjoying the end, however, doesn't change the fact that the glitches, bad button layout and overly annoying self-awareness, really make it hard to enjoy at times.

I’m sad that my enthusiasm for Rise & Shine dropped so thoroughly during my playthrough, because it’s not all bad. My favorite parts are the ones that lean heavily on puzzle-solving, like using your radio-controlled bullets to avoid incoming fire and hit switches. The art direction is also impressive, with colorful hand-drawn characters and landscapes that make the action pop. I even liked some of the nods to other games, including characters who are only as different from Mario, Link, and Marcus Fenix as law requires. However, even these references get stale as you realize that the world has no identity of its own; it’s just an amalgam of game industry winks and nudges. That kind of erosion sums up my feelings about Rise & Shine as a whole; it feels clever and promising at first, but doesn’t change its approach when the formula wears thin.
