Rochard PC game - Use it to change gravity at will, manipulate the environment, and throw huge crates at your enemies. Join the amazing exploits of astro-miner John Rochard and embark on a gravity-bending journey across the Solar System! Rochard is an award-winning side-scroller featuring hours of mind-blowing gravity gameplay, puzzle-solving and action. Gameplay is mostly about knocking out enemies, bots and auto guns, by launching and dropping box and explosives or firing at them. Narrated in a humorous cartoony style, Rochard tells a thrilling story of villains, a damsel in distress and a mysterious alien civilization.
Rochard is an interesting platformer. Your main gun mostly acts as the Half Life 2 gravity gun, except that it can also fire lasers, and you can also reduce the local gravity. A big part of the puzzles is also the use of fields. Each color has a function - red won't allow people to pass, yellow doesn't allow equipment, etc. So far I like the puzzles, but I'm not sure if it won't get too repetitive - that was a complaint in some reviews.
