  • story14 mentions

    The game's story is generally well-received, featuring a unique and enjoyable narrative about a pig with amnesia on a quest to reunite with his family, which adds depth to the gameplay. However, some players feel the story is stretched too thin and could benefit from more focus and development, especially given its cliffhanger ending. While it provides an interesting backdrop, some aspects may be easily overlooked, and there are calls for a sequel to enhance the storytelling experience.

    • “Great game with a great story!”
    • “The story is strange but also funny and enjoyable, and it adds a lot more depth to the game than other indie platformers where you just grind through levels, not knowing why.”
    • “Along the levels, you follow a story about Mr. Bree traveling through the forest to get back to his family.”
    • “The whole pretext of the story is a pig waking up with amnesia after escaping from a slaver, and he has forgotten most of his basic skills.”
    • “Much like Meat Boy, though, the story is near-irrelevant fluff meant to tie certain worlds together.”
    • “The story is decent though I felt that it lacked something.”
  • gameplay14 mentions

    The gameplay is a mixed bag, featuring fast-paced mechanics and a variety of levels, but is marred by an unforgiving wall jump mechanic and a frame rate of 30. While generous checkpoints help balance the challenge, the boss fights lack excitement due to repetitive mechanics. Overall, the game offers interesting elements like mood changes and collectibles, but the core gameplay experience is hindered by frustrating controls and bugs.

    • “Fast-paced gameplay.”
    • “Mr. Bree balances the hardcore nature of the gameplay with very generous checkpoints.”
    • “With the changing mood, great soundtrack, level-based metroidvania-esque mechanics, and tens of levels and collectibles, this game will not leave you cold.”
    • “The wall jump mechanic is just ridiculously unforgiving and difficult to use.”
    • “The 2 boss fights in the game are okay, but don't feel too fun because of their boring mechanics that are reused between both of them.”
    • “New mechanics are introduced in a counterintuitive manner - the wall jump, for example, is acquired in a tight space with no way to try it out immediately.”
  • graphics8 mentions

    The graphics in the game are generally praised for their beautiful art style and colorful visuals, contributing to an enjoyable aesthetic experience.

    • “The story is strange but also funny and enjoyable, adding a lot more depth to the game than other indie platformers where you just grind through levels, not knowing why.”
    • “And the hilarious localization errors.”
    • “The first of which is how to jump (lol, that was kinda funny).”

    • “The game crashes and freezes randomly, has poor controller support, and environments that blend together, making it hard to distinguish foreground and background.”
