    • “Great game, I like the retro graphics style, it looks great.”
    • “I love the simple but effective graphics.”
    • “The graphics are simplistic, the controls are basic, and although not a terrible game, my advice is to wait for a decent sale, then give it a shot.”
    • “The graphics are a bit too flat and cartoonish for my taste, and the colors as well as the flashing effects often make it hard to tell the background apart from objects, especially when there is a lot going on on the screen.”

  • gameplay
    30 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with many players noting issues with control fluidity and repetitiveness, leading to a lack of engagement. While some appreciate the charming art style and solid platforming mechanics, others criticize the gameplay as generic and lacking innovation, suggesting it feels more like a collection of familiar elements rather than a unique experience. Overall, the game offers decent content but may not justify its price for those seeking a fresh or captivating gameplay experience.

    • “The gameplay possesses a charming style all its own and the focus thankfully is on gameplay above all else (as it should be).”
    • “Its a good platformer, with cute cartoonish graphics, interesting gameplay and much content.”
    • “The platforming elements are really solid, including some of the physics elements like the swinging stones and rolling boulders.”
    • “The controls for the game don't handle well; they're not fluid or smooth, and it borders on the point where the gameplay itself feels laggy. For that to be present in this type of game really brings it down.”
    • “The gameplay gets repetitive quite quickly.”
    • “Definitely not worth the money, considering how generic the gameplay is. You could play a flash game of similar (or better) quality for free.”
