Light Tracer
SCORE: 68
I am extremely thankful Oasis Games sent Family Friendly Gaming a
digital download code for Light Tracer on the PS4 VR. The download size
of Light Tracer is 1.6 gigs. I have no information on a physical copy
version at this time. That may change in the future. In fact I hope it
does. Light Tracer is an interesting puzzle video game that reminds me
of the isometric video games.
There is a princess in Light Tracer. She will follow the light that we
put down on the ground with a staff in the right hand. Please note Light
Tracer requires two Playstation Move controllers. The left hand of the
player is used to move around the map, and to interact with objects.
Please note different buttons are used for those different interactions.
It feels weird at first, but I adapted eventually.
Like many VR video games Light Tracer can make you ill. If you spin the
world around too fast. This is something I did using the wrong button to
interact with moveable platforms in this puzzler. The 3D effects look
decent. I am not very pleased that we see the princesses underwear when
she runs away from us. The dress should have covered up better in my
opinion. I am also surprised the ESRB did not catch that. The ESRB
should pay Family Friendly Gaming for all of their mistakes we have
unearthed over the years.
The music in Light Tracer is nice. I liked the graphics in Light Tracer.
Others here at Family Friendly Gaming disagree with me, and think they
are just meh. There is talk of false gods in Light Tracer. In fact the
player is referenced to as a false god guiding this princess. I wish the
religious content had been left out since it will alienate a super
majority of Americans.
I did notice some glitches here and there in Light Tracer. The costume
of the princess can be changed. We collect gems along the way, and have
some very interesting boss battles. I enjoyed my time with Light Tracer.
I hope to see more Virtual Reality platformers like Light Tracer in the
future. The puzzle elements are a bit light. The action adventure
elements can take some time to adjust to. Like pointing, jumping, and
avoiding monsters.
