  • Fast-paced and engaging gameplay that is fun to play with friends, offering both local and online co-op modes.
  • Crisp and colorful graphics combined with a catchy soundtrack enhance the overall experience.
  • Variety of levels and character skins to unlock, providing a sense of progression and replay value.
  • Repetitive gameplay with some levels feeling either too easy or arbitrarily difficult, leading to frustration.
  • Lack of clear instructions and anti-progression mechanics, such as restarting levels upon dying, can hinder enjoyment.
  • Graphics and controls may feel simplistic or low-effort, especially for players expecting higher quality from a PC game.
  • story
    11 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story mode of "Spitlings" features a linear progression through levels that introduce gameplay elements while increasing in difficulty, framed by a simple narrative conveyed through unlockable comic strips. Players can challenge themselves with timed versions of levels and harder "b-side" stages, which add a competitive edge, especially in multiplayer. While the story itself may lack clarity, the gameplay experience is described as fun and engaging, albeit sometimes frustrating.

    • “You'll probably want to start out playing through Spitlings' story mode, which has you complete a linear list of levels introducing various gameplay elements while gradually ramping up the difficulty.”
    • “This gameplay is framed by a simple story told through short comics you unlock after completing certain worlds, providing some nice diversion.”
    • “I played the whole story; it was really fun and sometimes frustrating.”
    • “While there are a couple of levels unique to this mode, most of them are taken from the story mode, being unlocked once you’ve beaten them there.”
    • “Besides a story mode (really not sure what is going on, some subtitles would be nice – you have to guess by watching some cartoon), there is also a party mode, that is supposed to allow for co-op local or online play (haven’t figured out how to do the online co-op, but maybe there is no longer a strong community playing this game).”
    • “Hardly a success story, gamers just weren't all that interested in the game.”
  • graphics
    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game are characterized by a crisp and clean art style that aligns well with its fast-paced gameplay, reminiscent of titles like Pico Park and Inversus. However, some users criticize the visuals as simplistic and reminiscent of low-effort flash or mobile games, suggesting that they fall short of the high standards expected from a PC game. Overall, while the graphics are polished, they may not satisfy players looking for more depth and detail.

    • “Graphically, Spitlings features a crisp, clean art style perfectly fit for the gameplay.”
    • “The game has modern-day graphics with easy controls that smoothly transition from location to location.”
    • “While the graphics are clean and polished, they come across as somewhat simplistic and low effort.”
    • “The game features somewhat lazy, simplistic 2D graphics, of the type you normally expect to see in low-effort flash/browser games and mobile apps.”
    • “While they're clean and polished graphics, they're really simplistic and come across as a bit low effort.”
    • “Considering this is being evaluated as a PC game, having the graphics phoned in like this isn't going to result in a high quality, visually impressive game that PC gamers are used to seeing.”
  • gameplay
    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    • “Three of these packs make up one of 12 worlds, each of which introduces unique gameplay components, which very much keeps things fresh and creates a nice difficulty curve.”
    • “Goofy mechanics + demanding perfection = annoying.”
    • “It has some mechanics similar to that of the old game Bubble Trouble, where there are some big balls bouncing about the area, and when you shoot them, they split and divide into smaller pieces.”
    • “You'll probably want to start out playing through Spitlings' story mode, which has you complete a linear list of levels introducing various gameplay elements while gradually ramping up the difficulty.”
  • optimization
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

Additionally, the music complements the different areas effectively, contributing to an overall enjoyable experience.

    • “The game’s soundtrack is honestly fantastic, with a great variety of catchy tracks that don’t become annoying even when you’ve been stuck in a level for half an hour.”
    • “The new soundtrack for each area is very in line with the fast-paced nature of the game.”
    • “It's probably worth mentioning two high points: the music is pretty good and the online functionality was solid.”
  • humor
