App of the Day – LostWinds: Winter of the Melodias

App of the Day – LostWinds: Winter of the Melodias (iOS)

As with the original Lost Winds that released in 2008, this sequel from Frontier Developments started out as a WiiWare title ahead of creating the transition from a single radical control system to another. In this new touchscreen adventure our hero Toku is tasked with traversing a wild and windy planet in order to track down his missing mother.

It’s a platformer based on the principle of exploring the prospective of the control method, rather than trying to decrease any inherent hindrances. You’ll develop snowballs by pinching together snowflakes, and unleash boulders to smash by way of walls. Although the surface gameplay could be straightforward, Lost Winds is particular in its exploration of that simplicity. It is a game about playing with the fundamentals of nature.

Tapping at a point on the screen will send Toku running there, and he’ll automatically hop onto platforms if they are low enough. To make appropriate progress through the game though, you happen to be going to want to master the gust mechanics exactly where finger-swipes gently send him sailing about the landscape.

These gusts of wind are not just utilized to transport Toku about the world – a gentle flick of the screen when he’s close to water will send splashes towards saplings which then grow into the sky, helping him navigate an otherwise impenetrable level.

Frontier Developments took a little stick for the implementation of the controls with the first game, and this shortcoming was maybe unsurprising given the speed at which the port was turned around. The very good news is that whilst Lost Winds two may possibly not have quite perfected the gusty gyrations demanded by the gameplay, it is far improved and not nearly as fiddly – there’s also the alternative to fall-back to a virtual d-pad if that is your preference.
