Good points: the gameplay is nice and evolves through the game. I always think they reached the end of the gameplay's possibilities and they find new ways. The music is nice too. Bad points: graphics are not my type. It's the "binding of isaac" type of graphics. Not my thing. Also there is a problem with the voices: while the actors are trying their best, they sound like they've been recorded with a Nokia3310 in a church or something.

No Time to Explain is a fast-paced, fun game full of humor and chaos! The controls are smooth, and the jetpack gun adds a unique twist to the gameplay. Each level is full of surprises, with quirky enemies and environments that keep things exciting. The bright visuals and catchy music fit the crazy vibe perfectly. It's a fun, over-the-top adventure that doesn’t take itself seriously. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a quick and enjoyable experience!

No Time to Explain is one of those Difficult 2D platformers. The game takes an interesting way of traversing the levels by giving you a Laser gun that is used as a jetpack, because of this, you have to be able to aim correctly and use the momentum of the gun to propel yourself so you can be able to reach high ground or jump a very big gap. At the end of each world, you fight a boss with your gun and you have to be careful because the gun naturally pushes you backwards when you shoot, so boss fights can be challenging because of this factor but also in general the boss fights are a little hard. The story is pretty silly and it made me laugh a few times and it is a game that does not take itself too seriously. Every Time you reach a new world they would introduce you a new gameplay mechanic or change the way you play, which I thought was really nice since it kept things fresh throughout your journey. Overall I would say this was a pretty fun and challenging game. if you are into Difficult 2D platformers with a lot of variety in gameplay I would recommend this game to you. The game is pretty short though so if that is an issue then get it on sale if anything. However, there is a ton of community made levels that you can donwload from the Steam Workshop so even if you finish the game, there is still tons of levels you can try out plus 2 bonus worlds after you beat the game.
