Dec. 2024

This highly crafted platformer is a true standout, blending technical precision with an undeniable sense of style. The humour, music, and animation are all top-notch! The platforming mechanics are fresh and incredibly enjoyable, and while the puzzles aren’t overly difficult: they’re well-paced to keep the experience flowing smoothly. The gradual unlocking of new abilities for your blob is timed perfectly, offering just the right challenge without feeling overwhelming. I fond some areas quite tough the first time, but never impossible, striking a great balance. Additionally, the game has that elusive charm that makes it a joy to play from start to finish.

A good nostalgia trip if you played it back in the day, highly reccomend even if not an old fuck.

Sept. 2024

I really enjoyed this one for what it was: a simple chill puzzle platformer to play when you want to relax. Nothing was too challenging, everything about it was fun. I would recommend this one if you're looking for something to totally unwind to in between more stressful games. Pretty short for the price (definitely get it on sale) but worth it. 8/10
