"From the team who made Sonic Mania" perhaps did this game a disservice. Yes, momentum is a huge part of this game, but it's a bit more technical than the blue boy's escapades. Going through the game the first time will be a bit strange, figuring out how stringing the moves together is like practicing a dance routine. Once it clicks, the fluidity of the movement becomes clear, and it's a riot. Penny is a game warped from an age where a platformer could be straightforward, relatively quick to beat, and oozes replay value in the thrill of moving above collecting lots of trinkets. And I'm glad it's here.

Very fun game. The publisher should be dropped for getting them to release with 0 advertising, and having the first thing you see upon launching the game be 3 very long EULAs. Always leaves a bad taste in my mouth when multibillion dollar companies publish under a fake indie label.

PBB absolutely released too early, but it's still the best platformer I've played in years. And there's no reason to assume that any problems won't be fixed soon. Detailed video review below. https://youtu.be/2fXNpuZYVgc

Love letter to old fun game design. Was worried they wouldn't be able to follow up mania on their own ip. This game is absolutely wonderful.

STEAM DECK EXPERIENCE SO FAR: Amazing on Steam Deck. It's still early days, but the game runs at locked 90fps on my OLED model so far. Main menu and hand-drawn cutscenes are forced to 16:9, but all gameplay and in-game cutscenes are 16:10 and fill the entire screen. No HDR support, but looks nice and vibrant anyways. Looks and controls feel very fluid. I did feel some haptic feedback happening as well. Settings are very basic, really just a slider for draw distance, and a toggle for vsync, tripple buffering, and anti-aliasing, but you can max it out and no dips in performance. Feels very polished so far. Excited to experience the rest of the game.
