Call To Power 2 Cradle 3+ mod in progress: https://apolyton.net/forum/other-games/call-to-power-2/ctp2-creation/9437883-making-cradle-3-fully-compatible-with-the-apolyton-edition
Graphics: 5.0
Gorgeous, stylized, fluid, groundbreaking…it’s like watching a trippy Disney movie, except you’re fully controlling it. The only greater compliment is that the game is so good, you often completely forget about the graphics.
Sound: 5.0
Wonderful! The music strives for striking simplicity in its haunting violin-and-harp sea shanties. The dynamically generated battle music is particularly inventive, and the characters’ grunts and squeaks (friend and foe alike) never fail to delight.
Controls: 4.5
The camera can go absolutely bonkers during battles, and pulling out your wand to do repetitive tasks gets a little old, but everything else—fighting, jumping, walking, sailing, standing around just looking at stuff—is bliss.
Fun Factor: 5.0
A brilliant, dazzling wonder, no matter how you feel about Link’s new pants. It stretches tried-and-true Zelda gameplay where change was due, and leaves it alone where it’s always worked. If this game doesn’t make you happy, then it’s physically impossible for you to be happy.
I hate the fact that they make features, Nintendo throws some money at them if they lock off some of those features (For no reason) unless they hook up a GBA game too. I have every right to be negative about that, I have no plans ever to buy a GBA and I don't think I should have to go without those extra features just because Nintendo is pathetically trying to leverage their handheld monopoly...
The only potentially cool stuff is using the GBA for the opsat map (even though I used that map about two times in the game, total), and using it was a remote control for the sticky bomb. I can't help but wondering how inconvenient it'd be to switch controllers mid-game though.
The "unlock level" stuff is absolute crap and people should protest to Nintendo because of it.
