These Datacubes make a challenging chapter even moreso, but they are optional and clearly targeted towards the masochistic platforming fans. Even more than the hazards, though, is the challenge of collecting all the Datacubes in a chapter to unlock some extra hard levels. Right from the menu, too, Sunblaze offers a Zen Mode, which is basically an easier and shorter version of the main game, and it is clearly targeted towards those who are more interested in the story than the gameplay.Īcross the 6 chapters, new hazards are introduced, which make the stages that much more difficult. You can even access this menu within any stage, so if there is a particular one that is beating you up but you want to progress, you can use this feature to get past that stage so you can move on and get back on track. You can turn on Invincibility, have infinite dashes and jumps, and do other things that make the levels just a bit easier. Sunblaze has an amazing accessibility menu that allows anyone to play the game. Chapter 2 through Chapter 6 will test your abilities to the max, and I would strongly not recommend this game for casual players if it wasn’t for the following: However, after Chapter 1, things escalate tremendously. It does a great job of coaching you through the motions and controls and helping you to understand the ins and outs of the superhero training simulator. In regards to gameplay, Sunblaze starts off rather tame. Although some of the dad-jokes are a bit too much, the game does a great job giving our characters substance, and it is even better watching them grow and evolve. Thanks to the simple yet extremely effective setting, the story casually takes place inside the simulator until the finish, and it is a wonderful little journey all the way through. However, once he realizes his machine has put his daughter in danger, you can sense playtime is over and even Josie notices that. The change in the father’s demeanor is excellent, as he begins the game with this almost too-aggressive approach to “dadding” and trying to sound cool. The banter between the two is dorky yet heart-warming, but this interaction does not last too long, as the simulator begins to malfunction with Josie inside of it. This caters to the one-screen stages of the gameplay, and in the early sections, it is a proper teaching time between a superhero father and his daughter. You play as Josie, AKA the soon-to-be superhero Sunblaze, and it is finally time for you to do some deep training with your dad in his state-of-the-art superhero training simulator. The story of Sunblaze is a really fun idea that works great with the gameplay.
