"l'm happy. l'm where l'm meant to be, where I need to be now." ~ Bianca
Finally, a game takes climbing seriously! Jusant is an absolute joy to play, with a lovely and gleeful-looking almost clay doll-like artstyle and landscapes that made me stand in awe at their beauty.
Being so grounded in your abilities to scale up a wall, Jusant manages to make me so invested in a long climb that I stood on the edge of my seat several times, with the wind blowing strongly enough as to propel me sideways, with the walls glowing with bioluminescence, with the scorching sun weighing you down.
The environmental storytelling is unexpectedly good, and the text logs manage to convey a near sense of both mourning and hope. That is because Jusant is a game about change, trying to reflect about how we can bear to live in the present when all we feel we should be thinking about is how to best protect the environment for future generations, for those who are yet to come?
Through the logs, I also came to understand that Jusant is trying to talk about learning to appreciate the beauty of what's in front of us, which is fitting for a game which snuck itself in a genre brimming with beautiful Journeys, but one which gave me immense joy in playing it.
