You must help Aritana to find the harpy's feather in the top of a mountain, so the shaman can rid tribal the chieftain of a curse.

Aritana and the Harpy’s Feather offers the right amount of challenge and enjoyment with many throwbacks to our favorite platformers, as well as its own brand of passable mechanics.

I can’t say I warmed to the soundtrack, but I confess it’s cheery enough, and I can’t really identify anything offensively bad about Aritana. I think the dev team could make something really great in the future, but for the moment I could only recommended this game to a very patient platformer fan. And it would have to be on sale.

Behind the beautiful and colorful graphics, lilting plot, and responsive controls Aritana and the Harpy's Feather goes beyond a simple gameBehind the beautiful and colorful graphics, lilting plot, and responsive controls Aritana and the Harpy's Feather goes beyond a simple game platform.The levels were well elaborated and fulfill their part on the game, face the challenges established withing the fauna and the flora, and the weather will affect hugely the gameplay. As the game advance you will learn new powers, and to advanced you need a good understanding on how to use it.The responsive controls are not only a good implementation of the game, but you depend on it more than you can imagine because advance the level depend on you to make the right move at the right time, in the exact position and without thinking twice. Sometimes will be very frustrating to pass an obstacle, but it is very satisfying overcome the challenges placed before us.Aritana and the Harpy's Feather is the best game I played this year (2014) so far.Excellent game, very fun and challenging.At the moment I laid my hands on the game I could only stop playing when I saw the ending animation. And I encourage you to try to get 100% of it. You will take 5~6 hours on the average to finish the game in a straight line, and another couple to get 100% on the game and Steam achievements.Since the game concept and the first version the developers keep contact with the players, and they continue updating the game to improve the player experience based on community feedback.TL;DRGreat game, if you like old school platform and challenging games(in a good way) you can go for it with no regret.BTW: I just found out that Harpy is a type of neotropical eagle. = pBTW2: Prepare to die, don't worry about that.PT-BR video review: http://youtu.be/GIm6yqEUj2Y
