Quick score: 4/5 Notes: Honestly, a very good platformer. The camera is a bit ass, and visually the game feels extremely low effort. But in terms of platforming and level design the game is generally pretty great and right up there with Super Meat Boy and Celeste. Extremely difficult game overall, especially the "hard" levels. I would say harder than Meat Boy, but not by a ton. In terms of movement it feels extremely close to super meat boy. One minor issue I had is that the dash button wasn't working on controller by default, a simple fix is to just use steam controller config and bind RT to "Shift". I instantly skipped past this game based on the trailer, but decided to give it a shot upon someones recommendation, and I would definitely recommend you try it out as well. Especially if you can get it on sale.

Surprisingly great for a game that looks like it was someone's final project for a college class. Tons of fun with friends. I couldn't figure out how to get past one level for the life of me (and there's no guides online), so I unfortunately couldn't experience the whole game. Still had lots of fun with what I did play.

The game start off as easy jump platformer game and it's really a lot of fun to play with your friends. The difficulty of the game keep increasing along the way to the end which frustated me and my friends while attempting to finish this game. There is a lot of one chance level where from the start to finish you shall not make any mistake or you will have to start the level over. Because of that, you will die a lot in this game. There's even an achievement for dying a lot. All my struggle is worth it to finish this game. Oh yeah, I suggest that you play this game with your friend. I can't imagine someone finish this game in single player mode (that's badass).

Online multiplayer with a bunch of friends on Steam is a blast. This game is worth way more than 50 cents (that's how much it was when I got it on sale). It's sort of like Super Meat Boy 2.5d with online coop. Graphics are good. Performance is solid and the netcode is very well-done. Great game if you like challenging and fun platformers.

Bob was Hungry is a difficult precision platformer which emphasises on a somewhat of a trial-and-error playstyle. The game seems very similar (if not almost identical) to the hit game "Super Meat Boy!" - With the exception that it is a different art-style, and of course 3D. The game is incredibly challenging - I have been a platformer for years and was surprised to see some of the early levels be so difficult. However, after one or two failed attempts you can easily do the level. Some of the obstacles placed are in ways that you may not notice until you either land right next to it, or right into it - Highlighting the trial-and-error playstyle I mentioned. Despite it's difficulty, the game is incredibly forgiving. There is no life system, no punishment for dying and no setting you back - Instead you have a death counter in the top right, tracking how many times you died attempting that level. The death counter will stick on your personal best (If, of course, it was your personal best attempt) and will go down with further attempts. Each level has a secret "sauce" that must be found to complement the main dish at the end of the level. It isn't needed to complete it, but it adds an extra reason to explore levels and take more risks if you're a completionist. I would recommend this to seasoned platformers and to people who are looking for a humourous yet challenging game.
