What a joyful little game. It's an indie platformer that comfortably sits in Metacritic's Top 10 Switch games of all time, and now I finally understand why.
The game is a wonderful blend of tight platforming, environmental puzzles, and a genuinely engaging story. The music and art style both serve to amplify this, paying tribute to 8 bit and 16 bit platformers but also having its own distinctive "style".
I'm loving how they introduce new mechanics gradually and so the game never feels stale. I'm on the last chapter now (7) and it's hard as nails, but ultimately fair. I can't get mad at it because I know exactly why I died each time.
Probably one of the better games I've played in the last year.
