Lamm Portable Edition

Updated: Mar 12, 2020





















































About This Game Lamm is a hardcore platformer in which you have to pick up orbs to jump. Some orbs allow you to jump once, others twice, and they can go up to five jumps in a row !The game is separated into six different worlds and a total of 42 levels, each one harder that the last. They may even make you think since the order to pick the orbs up is crucial.Jumping SystemIn Lamm, everything depends on the number of times you can jump. There are five different orb types :- White orb : one jump- Yellow orb : double jump- Orange orb : triple jump- Red orb : quintuple jump- Black orb : no jumpFirefliesEvery level contains an hidden firefly. They're very tough to get and give another challenge for the best players. If you can find the six fireflies in any world, you will gain access to a bonus level !SpeedrunningA very convenient timer will record your best time for every level.The game is optimized for speedrunners, allowing you to try your best to be one of the fastest ! 7aa9394dea Title: LammGenre: Action, IndieDeveloper:Léo-GamesPublisher:Léo-GamesRelease Date: 9 Feb, 2017 Lamm Portable Edition Lamm is a minimalistic black-gray-white puzzle-platformer that looks like Super Meat Boy got lost in Limbo. The game mechanic is a nice fresh take on the 2D platforming genre: you can do zero, single, double, triple or quintuple jumps depending on which power-up orb you last collected \u2013 the puzzles are based on figuring out the right sequence of collecting the orbs & pressing buttons to be able to reach the end of the level. The puzzle solving aspect of this game is just as important as the platforming (which can actually be quite challenging in certain levels). There are 6 chapters each containing six levels. To complicate matters, each level contains a firefly, which is always difficult to spot and to reach. You need to collect all fireflies to unlock bonus levels and the final chapter. After completing the final chapter you unlock the game\u2019s ending, which is a single but pretty long and difficult level titled LAMM in which you get a new power: unlimited jumping. The level are optimized for speedrunning and LAMM includes a handy timer, but unfortunately no leaderboards. The game is rather short, but as it is cheap it is worth its price.The soundtrack is very good, composed by MetalRenard, who I had never heard of before. Unfortunately the soundtrack is not available as DLC on Steam and it is also not on Spotify. But you can listen to (for free) and even buy it on https:\/\/metalrenardmusic.bandcamp.com\/album\/lamm-ost.LAMM was great fun to play. I am surprised it is not more well known. If you like Super Meat Boy you will like this game too. The game certainly has replay value if you want try to improve on your own previous best times.However, the game is not without its problems, but they are mostly minor and certainly not deal breakers. - My main grime is that hitboxes around many enemies, especially bullets, are impossibly large \u2013 resulting in many deaths that feel unfair. I guess this was necessary to make avoiding the bullets not too easy, but I think it would have been a better option to make the bullets larger.- Scrolling not always feels completely fluent, even though my PC has a GeForce 1080 Ti card.- I had trouble getting my Xbox One controller to work with LAMM. I had to bind the buttons to keyboard keys to get it to work.- Full screen mode did not properly work the first few times I started the game but suddenly it worked (and kept working) just fine.
