  Way too rough. I love the idea and presentation. I mean, it's a tomato with a hat. Of course I'm gonna spend a couple bucks on it. But it just isn't polished enough to be out in the wild. Especially given it is a trilogy. Maybe I can appreciate it in hindsight if I play the other two games but there were just too many headaches in the 80mins it took me to completionist this game. False positive with virus protection on the .exe, crash to desktop on first launch, options menu wouldn't load, no gamepad support, crash to desktop twice more while playing, frame dips, bad camera angle switches, obstacles that could become mistimed, a couple bad checkpoints, endless fall if you go too far off a ledge which requires shutting down the game, etc etc. It's half baked, if that. Love the idea, love the visuals, and would be proud to of made something remotely close to half as good as this. I can appreciate what the dude pulled off. There's some great concepts here. A good base, unique visual style/animations, and even serviceable ball rolling vibes... But it just isn't ready for the limelight. I'll plow through the other two games down the road and circle back with an edit to this review with that perspective. It might be fun to see the developer's growth through the three games. But this game on its own is only a "neat project", and even at the tiny price, probably isn't worth it. There's definitely worse stuff on Steam. A LOT worse. But this is just too rough for a recommendation.

  'Have you seen that game with the adventure archeologist with a brown hat? He runs and rolls around to find treasure' 'Ah you mean..' 'Indeed, Tomato Jones' Tomato Jones funny platform puzzle game. You play as a (very overripe) tomato seeking gold coins and artifacts in dungeons filled with traps, railcars, platforms and some hostile, plale collored, unidentified fruits. The game houses a variaty of levels with a couple different styles. The game is simple to play, you can move and you can jump. (A bit of a shame you don't have a whip.) As you play for a while the music track is rather repetivite and so are the squishy sound effects. But that isn't too bothersome. The nicely made levels will keep you busy anyway. The game is fun to mess around in for a little while. Still, I'd get it on a sale.

  I bought this to be a light game, to play on my ultra book, but this game is poorly optimized, it can run well but the top of my lap begins to burn. On my tower, the game still has a low frame rate, and still has clunky, unresponsive controls. Pros: Nice style Low power drive Solid platformer Fez inspired gameplay Thoughtful level design Cons: Horrendous camera Unresponsive controls Artificially padding game time via starting the level with a back screen for a few seconds Clunky gameplay Low resolution textures Overall verdict, you should buy this game. I seemed harsh on this game, at the beginning of this review, because I really like this game and I want the developer to help fix these issues. I want him to grow and learn, from his past, and honestly I love this game and I want to see more platformers like this.

  Edit: 8/3/16 Load times have been drastically shortened and is better optimized, which definitely improves the game! Still worth buying, even without the 2% discount! Original review: Tomato Jones is a simple platformer with a funny theme. It's amusing for what it's worth. Unfortuntely, it's also poorly optimized. While the game hasn't crashed yet, poor frame rates, long load times, and camera issues definitely bring the whole experience down. 7/10 Get it while it's 2% off!

  Really great concept and an enjoyable game to play. Besides the interesting control (which In my opinion is fitting for the game) the only real problem it has is the load times. The game has about a 5 second load every time you die because it reloads the whole level rather than just reverting you back to a checkpoint. If those loads are reduced, and the game optimized and tweaked a bit, this game will be fantastic!
