  [i]Boson X[/i] is just such a clean game. You play with 3 buttons, which correspond to jumps in 3 directions; it matters how long you hold them for. Jump around through the crazy levels. Each of them has a different layout, yes, but there are also stunningly looking graphical gimmicks that'll make you think "who needs drugs anyway?". A video will tell you more. But there is no need to guess whether you'll like it or not, because 6 of the 18 levels are available to [url=http://boson-x.com]download for free[/url]. I've played Boson X before its release on Steam for something like 20 hours, and I still haven't had enough. ★★★★★★★★★☆

  If you like the "runner" genre you'll love this one. You're basically running through an endless tubular map and you jump to either side or straight up and you can jump higher by holding the button/direction pressed. You cannot move more than 1 tile to the sideways without landing first though. The goal is to get as much energy as possible by running on the blue tiles while avoiding any collisions or bottomless pits. Once you reach 100% of energy you're free to collide against something or fall to end a stage, otherwise you can keep going and try to reach a higher score. * Simple graphics, which means it can run on any toaster and wont bother you while going at full speed. * Good soundtrack! It's kinda electronic-something, I don't know, it sounds good enough in game and it changes dynamically (The more upbeat version plays when you reach over 100% of energy). * Controls are quite comfortable. You can just plug in your Xbox 360 controller and be ready to play. You can move with the triggers, the shoulder buttons, the directional pad and the analog, they're all supported at the same time. * Excellent port of what I suppose is an iOS game. No flaws in framerate nor stuttering or anything. * Achievements aren't something so special here, they're all about you beating a stage. Latter stages are quite hard though! Still, it would've been cool to have some weird achievements or even some score attack ones to push you to try harder. * Good replayability if you care about score attack and leaderboards. I'm sure the graphics are WAY too simple for a lot of people but the game is just 3 dollars full price. I don't really mind that. I had lots of fun so far and I expect to 100% the game in a few days.

  I love this game and would recommend it to almost anyone. -Simple controls -Beautiful asthetic -Well executed science theme -High difficulty - However, this is not the kind of difficulty that makes you angry at the game but instead, determined to beat it. -Completely addicting I've spent many hours playing this game before it went on steam and I look forward to playing many more now.

  Boson X is a minimalistic runner with very simple gameplay. However, that's all it needs; the execution is almost flawless and the game is very fun, challenging, and addicting. Boson X is based around one main mechanic that involves rotating the world as you jump, allowing you to leap to either side of you or straight ahead. By running on glowing blue platforms, your score (and speed) will increase; victory is achieved by scoring 100%. As mentioned above, while the premise is very simple, each level is distinctly different from one another and some even include special hazards. $3 gives you 18 levels with huge replay value. The price is exceptional for what the game offers, but if you aren't convinced, there is a free version on the [url=http://www.boson-x.com/]game's website[/url]with 6 levels (and one less character skin). Overall, Boson X is a great game and I definitely recommend it.

  I'll start simple. This game is possibly one of the most beautiful things i have witnessed. Anyone who's played the early stages will disagree. once this game lulls you into a false sense of security with how the levels work. It will simply add a new mechanic. After this, it decides to blind you with AWESOME to the point you can't win. If you enjoy Super Hexagon, you'll hate this just as much. Enjoy Bit Trip Runner, you'll be tripping when you get to about level 8. If you've got the money to spare buy this, it's not a mistake. BTW in the process of playing this game you will want to commit suicide several times BUT DON'T (that means the devs win)

  [b]Recommended[/b]: A runner game isn't going to set the world on fire, but the interesting theme and tight design make Boson X well worth playing. It marries a variety of interesting obstacles with some quite interesting voxel art design in the levels and characters to create a strongly-themed and quite technically-proficient runner game.

  The instructions weren't clear enough. I got my dick caught in the particle accelerator.

  Boson X is an extremly fun game. It is the perfect mixture of challenging levels and simplistic gameplay that will leave you playing for hours on end. The soundtrack and sound effects are top quality, and the graphics are excellent (if simplistic) for an indie game. Thank You for making such a great game for people to play! :D

  Boson X is one of these games that deserves a place in your library. As hard as fun this amazing and highly addictive 3D platformer indie game will destroy your keyboard, not for pressing many keys, it's because this game will test your reflex and this game will challenge you in every single level. As a cheap game, this game worth every cent. Graphically looks friendly and the soundtrack fits perfectly with every level. Basically i can't stop thinking on flip flip. 10 / 10
