These all look awesome! Sucks that I'm at work right now. I'm going to give all 3 a try when I get home this afternoon.

I've been wanting Trine for awhile on PSN. I think it came down to $9.99 and a sequel was announced. Hmm. How challenging is it? I hate getting stuck and just giving up, especially with puzzle platforming games.
Are the other 2 on Steam?

Trine is not difficult, though there is a bit of a challenge in getting 100%.

It's a good challenge, nothing too frustrating (although the final level is a bit hard, especially if you're going for all the trophies). You should definitely be able to complete on the standard difficulty without too much hassle.

I own Trine and Noitu Love 2. They are both fantastic. Noitu Love 2 is easily one of my favorite PC games!

Really? I've been a little reticent about getting the full version because I thought the demo was too easy. I love the graphics and gameplay though. What makes this one of your favs?

First off about the difficulty, I wouldn't be too concerned, much like other games in the genre it picks up a bit as the game goes on. Not to mention there are several difficulties to play on. They even have extra optional characters and secret bosses based on what difficulty you play it on.
Back on the characters though, they all play completely differently. For example the first girl you get is entirely projectile based which changes how you have to approach the level entirely.
I will have to say though I am a really huge fan of Contra/Metal slug style games so I am a bit biased.

Noitu Love 2 is great! It reminds me a bit of Gunstar Heroes.
