For: The Farewell Medley
For: The Farewell Medley
"The Farewell Medley is a large adventure game", that's pretty much the only comment written by Kurath on this page when the game was first released. It was such a simple sentence that served as an invitation to the public, and we had no idea how much of a looming presence was behind it. It's been a good while since then, and thus there is a correction that must be made to that statement to truly reflect what we players have discovered: The Farewell Medley is the largest fangame.
To understand how the game works, it is worth knowing it is split into two parts. The first is the main storyline, which is comprised of a plethora of stages that vary across the spectrum of the fangame genres. These stages represent the creativity and artistic passion of our community and show the best of what we have to offer. They contain some of the best platforming I have played, some of the greatest bosses I have challenged, and the most enjoyable puzzles I have solved. This storyline is very long, but throughout the entire time I applauded the creators for maintaining my interest the entire time; there is never a single dull moment in this game.
The second part is where the game bares its true colors in the form of optional content. I said the main storyline is very long, but the remaining optional content absolutely triumphs over it tenfold in the amount of stuff there is to do. So much of this content feels like the envisioned dreams of the creators, as they each put forward unique ideas that make every inch of this game worth exploring. There are several minigames you can play, entire stages hidden behind various guardians, even areas that will test your logic. The piece that holds all of this together is a wonderfully crafted achievement system, which ensures you see all that The Farewell Medley has to offer. Rather you hunt down items for the game's optional Collectathon, test your knowledge against the online leader board, or do battle against memories of the past, there will always be something lurking around the corner to do next.
I now wish to talk about areas in the game directly, I do not recommend reading if you have not played the full game. To save space and to be more readable I have pasted such on this Trello board: https://trello.com/b/m4z54PJM/farewell-medley-stage-reviews
With all of this said, The Farewell Medley is absolutely the greatest entry within the Adventure genre and is without a doubt my favorite fangame. It is a constant source of variety and enjoyment that lasts for tens of hours, and a monument to everything I want from a game in general. It without a doubt deserves all the honorifics it has earned and more, and I also believe immediately places Kurath as my favorite maker as well. Well done to the various makers within, thank you for this experience.
If you like IWBTG Fangames, you should play this. This is the pinnacle of our community, the absolute best we have to offer.

I feel as if when it comes to absolute fundamental design for an adventure game, Diverse is the perfect example of what works, at least for me. The traps are pretty well placed, and they aren't too basic while not being super elaborate, it's just a little flavor I'd say, and the stages are good, introducing simple but fun mechanics and capping each off with a boss, and this game has really good bosses in my opinion, fun attacks, unique mechanics, everything that makes a boss good in my opinion is present in these bosses. It's a shame it never got finished, although the current final boss is definitely one of my favorite fangame bosses, it's just really cool and has a nostalgia factor since I first saw it as like a 12-13 year old. Really fun game in my opinion, I think it's aged gracefully.

Neat pattern avoidance with platforming segment. It's weird to figure out how the patterns work, but you will learn it after a couple of minutes.

There is nothing special about the Needle game, but this game was released in 2015, so the requirements cannot be too high, but aliceNobodi said that the game only took two hours to make, so the quality is not too high, and it will not be bigger than aliceNobodi Part of the game is good, overall, it’s really nothing special, but I don’t have too high requirements for the game, so it’s acceptable for me
沒什麼特別的東西的Needle遊戲，不過這遊戲是2015年出的，所以要求不能太高，不過aliceNobodi說了這遊戲只花兩個小時製作，所以品質也不會太高，也不會比aliceNobodi大部分的遊戲好，總體來說，真的沒什麼特別的，但我對遊戲的要求不會太高，所以對我來說是可以接受的
