Our take on LOVE 3
The checkpoint system reduces repeated-failure friction, but it can also lessen the pressure of completing a section without assistance. The focused platforming structure leaves limited room for broader exploration or character development.
What is LOVE 3?
LOVE 3 places fiveEight in a mechanical wasteland across 25 demanding precision-platforming stages.
Hazards, concealed switches, secret passages, and collectible items fill the levels, with discoveries affecting the conclusion. Player-set checkpoints enable instant revival after a life is lost, while optional settings restrict checkpoint frequency or available lives, add slow motion, and alter the game mode. James Bennett provides a separate piece of music for each stage. Speedrun leaderboards let players compare completion times. The package also contains the full stage collections from LOVE, LOVE 2: kuso, and LOVE Remastered, along with the original soundtrack of 42 tracks.
