The visuals and sounds are great! A bit difficult to control the movement, it feels a bit heavy, but cool nonetheless

Ynglet left me with the lingering thought that asked: Is this what a more abstract and psychedelic take on Hohokum looks like? I think the answer is probably yes, but to the game’s merit, this is also something entirely it’s own. Unique visual style aside, what absolutely needs to be mentioned is the soundtrack. Comprised entirely of chill melodic techno, the music is absolutely superb and I need to remind myself later to download this on my phone for regular consumption. Do yourself a favour and put on your favourite headphones or connect this to your home theatre system, and turn that volume up! Regarding the actual gameplay: Mechanically, I’d argue that if this is not truly unique on that front, then it is surely a niche concept that stands out brilliantly. While the controls are simple and straight forward, they deliver exceptional polish that synergizes perfectly with the various challenges presented in each level. This creates a really interesting meta context that develops during the game’s play through, I had a constant stream of reactions that I would describe as laughter, deep sighing, surprise and eureka. That’s quite an emotional rollercoaster to ride, and it’s fairly easy for devs to fall victim to the myriad pitfalls that exist when toying with someone’s brain, Ynglet managed to avoid them all with a level of skill that makes it look easy (it’s not). There was some initial cognitive dissonance with the environment and control, but by the second stage, the novel concepts on interaction had established a baseline for me, From there, it was muscle memory until the end. I actually don’t think I really had any conscious thought for what button needed to be pressed on my controller from that point on. Working through each stage, I felt like the developer found the right balance for ramping complexity, I was never left feeling either overwhelmed or bored. I think that’s important to note, because the game also never once explicitly stated to me, the player, how to play. You’re expected to make decisions and infer the objective, strictly on your own, so use your inherently human ability to reason, and put on your critical thinking hat, or whatever. If I had any complaints to make, it’s that I am left wanting more. The game is relatively short, but not unreasonably so. Which, I suppose means it doesn’t overstay its welcome but I’d definitely be open to more if that were to be an option in the future.

A short, fascinating platformer. The game has ~6 main levels and ~12 optional levels, which are accessible from the start via "Extra World" and "Special World". The game's big selling point is that platforms aren't solid objects, instead they act like bubbles of water you float/swim through. While you might think this would make the game easy, later levels introduce more mechanics and drastically reduce the number of available platforms, forcing you to work with the game's physics. Good stuff: + For a platformer, it controls surprisingly different than other games in the genre, and requires a different thought process to make it through most levels. + You can make your own checkpoints without using any resources, allowing you to customize difficulty mid-level + Art style is minimalistic and makes it easy to understand mechanics fairly quickly + New mechanics require a little bit of trial and error to figure out, there's no direct explanation given. This keeps with the game's aesthetic, though. + There's an entire mini-golf minigame with 18 holes you can unlock, which feels more fleshed out than I would expect. + There's accessibility options Stuff I'm not fond of: - Level selection is deliberately obtuse, and when you unlock a new level, it's rarely placed on the map next to the level you just completed. You need to hunt for where you're supposed to go next. - Progression is strictly linear, you unlock one level at a time. I'm not crazy about searching for levels on a world map. - The PDF achievement is genuinely ridiculous. Read which keys you need to press during the credits and it will unlock, you don't actually need to go to Copenhagen. [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1336070/Ynglet_Prologue?snr=1_7_15__13]There's still a free demo if you're on the fence. Again, the game isn't too long, but it took me two evenings to complete. I'd recommend trying it out if you'd like to experience something fresh, gameplay videos don't do it justice.
