Double Pug Switch

Only two buttons but super-satisfying gameplay on this platformer. Getting all achievements is really hard but the game is still fun and challenging without that so it's a good game for kids.

Double Pug es un juego que nos recuerda a muchos de su género (side scrolling 2D precision platformer) como Geometry Dash pero a la vez nos narra una historia de lo más simple pero que hace que el juego no se limite a avanzar niveles. En el juego somos Otis, un perro, que con la ayuda de la profesora tenemos que solucionar los problemas que causa Seker, el gato. PROS -Niveles con dificultad elevada -Los niveles son cortos y con abundantes check points -Podemos personalizar a nuestro perro -Hay "poderes" que harán nuestra aventura más amena CONTRA -El apartado musical no es el mejor. Hay melodías muy repetitivas -Cuando usemos el poder de la velocidad iremos tan rápido que no podremos ver que tenemos delante por lo que moriremos de forma inevitable la primera vez que pasemos el nivel. En conclusión, es un buen juego de alta dificultad con un protagonista adorable donde moriremos una y otra vez Para más detalles: https://theartofgaming.es/analisis-double-pug-switch/

Double Pug Switch is a simple side scrolling precision platformer and is a frustratingly addictive indie game developed by The Polygon Loft. In order to reverse the consequences from a catastrophic laboratory accident, Otis the Pug must jump through different dimensions to stop the evil cat, Sker. Otis has to switch between dimensions and avoid countless spikes and pitfalls to get to Sker and turn him back into the good cat, Whiskers. Double Pug Switch is not a game for the easily frustrated or people with slower reaction times. This is a game that will require your total attention and focus at all times. You have to survive by narrowly dodging spikes, avoiding fast approaching pitfalls, and collecting power-ups to inch your way to the next checkpoint, all while higher skilled players try to collect gold and purple coins to buy neat cosmetic hats and masks for Otis to collect in the game’s hat shop. The player will infinitely keep repeating from the last checkpoint they reached, until they reach the next checkpoint or the end of the level. Let’s start off with the good traits of Double Pug Switch. The art style of this game is adorably cartoonish and soft. Character designs are simple, yet easily distinguishable, which makes the characters more charming and memorable. There are 5 different dimensions, each with 7 levels and one boss fight at the end. The level backgrounds followed a theme around several dimensions and were stylish and simple, and very importantly, they were not distracting during the fast action gameplay. The music was surprisingly catchy and thematically fitted the aesthetic of the different levels. The hat shop is a wonderful feature that gives players an incentive to do well on stages as well as increase the game’s replayability. There is also a marker placed vertically on the screen that lets the player know where they last died, to help indicate how much or how little progress you are making. Unfortunately, there are a few minor flaws that the developers overlooked and could have improved on. There were a few different sections where the checkpoint started too close to a section of obstacles. The reason that is an issue is because Otis immediately bolts forward after restarting and there is a peculiar timing delay around how fast you can switch between dimensions and there were a few checkpoints that felt cheapened by their own placement. I think those sections could have placed the checkpoint a little further back to allow for some more reaction time. Another criticism is that you are forced to use the “Z” key on the keyboard to jump and the “X” key to switch dimensions but there is no option to remap those buttons. Eventually, after 100’s of deaths, my fingers started getting worn out and I was wishing that option was included. While the boss fights were exciting at first, they are a little too simple. The boss stages are usually not the hardest level in a dimension, even though it’s always saved for last. You only get to dodge spikes, missiles, and lasers; it would have been much more engaging and fulfilling if you had to attack and damage Sker’s machine somehow. The Polygon Loft also failed to think about the accessibility for newer players of the genre; a feature that adjusts the speed for less experienced players would have been nice. Double Pug Switch offers hours of highly challenging, yet rewarding fun if you are into fast precision platformers like Flappy Bird and The Impossible Game. At its core, it is a very simple game and although there is some love put into this game, it could have been a little more ambitious.  Rate: 6.5/10

It has a pug in it yes, can i agree its a masterpug game yes, does it make u go insane yes,so its pugfection game 10/10 pugs

Barely recommended, but only if you like difficult games. There is a lot to like here. The graphics are decent, several levels with a ton of challenge, really low price for the content you get and of course, it has a cute pug. On the flipside, the precision needed is frustrating and since its an auto runner, you will have to restart over and over. Its very cheap and well made, but too frustrating for me personally.

Il primo titolo dello sviluppatore indipendente The Polygon Loft avrà un protagonista alquanto insolito. Stiamo infatti parlando di un cane, precisamente un carlino. Il gruppo di sviluppatori ha creato un platform si articolerà su due dimensioni. Sembra un titolo particolare, a partire proprio dalla scelta dei personaggi. Oltre al carlino infatti abbiamo come antagonista il classico e antipatico gatto, in costante conflitto con il cane. Double Pug Switch è disponibile su PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 e Xbox One. Noi abbiamo testato la versione Nintendo Switch e PC. DUE CARLINI AL PREZZO DI UNO Il nostro amico Otis, questo è il nome del protagonista, dovrà destreggiarsi in due dimensioni, sarà come avere due amici al prezzo di uno. Il titolo è suddiviso in 32 livelli totali e in ognuno di questi Otis dovrà cercare di arrivare alla fine senza morire lungo il percorso per diverse cause. Come inizia però la nostra avventura nel mondo bidimensionale? Otis sta facendo il suo riposino pomeridiano nel laboratorio del suo proprietario. Qui però c’è anche un gatto di nome Whiskers, il nostro futuro antagonista, che ha la brillante idea di colpire due provette contenenti dei fluidi di laboratorio sotto lo sguardo scioccato dello scienziato. I due liquidi una volta rovesciati apriranno un portale nel mondo bidimensionale luogo di tutte le nostre avventure. Una volta che avremo attraversato il passaggio, il proprietario del laboratorio, padrone di Otis, ci istruirà sui comandi da utilizzare per superare i livelli. Potremo vedere subito quelle che saranno le eventuali cause di morte del nostro piccolo Otis. Si potrà infatti morire per non aver effettuato correttamente un salto, per essere finito su degli spuntoni presenti nel terreno o nel soffitto e per non aver cambiato la dimensione abbastanza in fretta. Un elemento che potrebbe dare poca soddisfazione al giocatore riguarda lo spostamento di Otis; infatti questo non necessiterà di nessun nostro comando per camminare. Non possiamo dunque renderlo più veloce, rallentarlo o semplicemente fermarlo per capire come effettuare il percorso seguente. Il nostro scopo sarà quello di destreggiarci tra le due dimensioni, nascondendo le trappole e facendo apparire le piattaforme su cui camminare per poter finalmente tornare nella realtà.
