Stilt

About

In the world of Stilt, you are a furball with two arms. You were routinely flying your spaceship delivering gift packages until a giant octopus living atop a volcano decided to steal your spaceship, dispersing the precious cargo all over the hills. You equip yourself with a springy stilt in each hand to bounce through the challenging landscape to retrieve the lost gifts and eventually get back you…

The gameplay is reminiscent of N64-era platformers, featuring enjoyable movement mechanics that allow for parkour-style navigation, enabling players to skip sections of levels. While this approach can hinder collectible acquisition, the game encourages replaying levels to gather more items, and the jumping mechanics are noted for their smoothness and polish.
- “It's essentially an N64 era platformer collect-a-thon with some of the most fun movement mechanics I've tried in VR.”
- “The one thing I absolutely love about this game is the movement mechanic, and the fact that you can do cool parkour to practically skip most parts of levels, though this is punished because you don't get to collect stamps or gifts (but you can just do the level again and collect more, it stacks).”
- “Very smooth jumping mechanics and feels polished.”

The graphics are criticized for lacking distinct art direction, resulting in a repetitive visual experience that fails to foster an emotional connection with characters and collectibles. Despite this, some users express hope that the multiplayer experience could evoke the spirit of classic arena shooters like Quake, even if the graphics do not meet modern standards.
- “It does lack in art direction, as the graphics get very same-y, and there is no emotional connection between you and your character/collectibles.”
- “I wish multiplayer lobbies were populated because I bet multiplayer would be the closest thing to a modern Quake arena (despite the graphics, of course).”

Players appreciate that the game avoids grinding and repetitive content, with each level offering fresh experiences and engaging power-ups, similar to the mechanics found in "Neon White."
- “Similar to Neon White, you get power-ups in the level and there's no grinding or bloated repeated content; every new level feels fresh and interesting.”
