About
Overview:
Is This a Platformer? is a fast-paced action platformer that throws players into a hilariously absurd adventure filled with quirky characters, over-the-top obstacles, and laugh-out-loud moments at every turn.
Step into the shoes of Kenzu, a young Japanese video game otaku, suddenly pulled into a bizarre digital world. His mission? Rescue his brother from the clutches of a mysterious creature in a universe where nothing makes sense—but everything is a challenge
Art Style:
Is This a Platformer? brings its vibrant world to life with charming, retro-inspired pixel art. Think chunky, colorful pixels reminiscent of classic platformers but polished with modern touches. The result? A visual feast that blends nostalgia with fresh, creative flair.
And where else will you find a laughing sun or a bunch of screaming grapes? Oh, and don’t forget the explosive Kaboom! effect—because why not?
Gameplay:
You’re just Kenzu—a regular guy with a killer jump and a mean punch. But in this world, every movement counts. Precision platforming, tight controls, and quick reflexes are your only allies as you leap, punch, and fight your way through absurd challenges.
Boss fights? They're epic, over-the-top showdowns that mix intense platforming with wild humor and massive, unforgettable foes.
Think you’ve got the skills to beat our toughest boss? Prove it. We dare you.

FUN TO PLAY requires about one hour to finish. art style - good gameplay - nice fun to play not that good tho music - masterpiece price - acceptable (need more content) # advice if you play it focuses on the timing .
El juego esta bien,tiene un aire retro,aderezado con un toque comico,e incluso en lo que respecta a dificultad,el mismo recuerda a juegos de antaño.Personalmente cambiara que cada vez que mueres se repitan ciertas conversaciones,lo sentí un poco pesado tras varios intentos,y también creo igual algún checkpoint le vendría bien,habrá jugadores mas jovenes que quizá repetir tanto varias zonas se les atragante (aunque esto igual es un poco mas personal)

Very interesting and funny game 👍💖
I love the idea of big bosses in the background it makes me remember old games back when i was a kid, totally worth it for its cheap price tbh.
This game was a pretty fun experience. The play time is about 3 hours, if you have a skill issue, if you do not however, the game will take you 1-2 hours. 7.5/10 would probably play again some bosses have dumb attacks and the game is pretty short but i liked the humor and characters and also the gameplay. Now just a quick warning spoilers ahead so if you haven't played the game please finish it then read the review. (or just dont buy it) so I will be ranking each and every boss and region in the game starting with the first area which i forgot its name. so as a tutorial it is pretty good and i do not have many critisims about it and as for its boss (the grape lumber i think he was called?) was a pretty good beginner boss he becomes really easy after you memorise his... 2 attacks but I just wish his laser attack had a bit more of a charge up to it. also i hate when you hit him and if you are just a BIT late he will destroy you with an attack but luckily other bosses dont have this issue why DOES HE HAVE IT IDK this area and boss gets a 7/10 next up are the banana lakes, this place was pretty interesting and kinda fun! i really dont have that much to say about it other than the part with the platforms was really annoying. also the snail guy was... well.. pretty...... interesting... as for the regions boss (banananana) he was a really fun boss! you have to memorise his attacks and actually develop a strategy for him so pretty fun boss! this region gets an 8/10 next up if i remember was the orange area with the really annoying desperate female orange queen! now the orange queen was actually a pretty good, fair, challenging boss. as for the actuall region, it was like, fine this area gets an 8/10 so next up we just have a chase scene with like the sweet worm queen? and boy was this chase fun! 9/10 chase anyways next up the boss is the ragnarock guy and this boss was REALLY GOOD his attacks gave you enough time to react, they were pretty cool, and well.. HE WAS JUST A FUN BOSS OK? 10/10 boss next up we have the moon! now from here on the game (especially the platforming) gets a lot harder. it was REALLY hard for me because of those light things and flashing and moving platforms but after some time you memorise it and win (and lose your sanity) next boss is the moon knight he was... REALLY easy i kinda dont like the fact that he has a really cool design only to be stupidly easy... really soon after that is the moon saint.. which... well... was really hard. i did find a tactic for it which is just stay in this area if he does the blue comet attack just wait for the first one to go then go to the middle, the laser attack couldnt even reach you and the explosion attack you just needed a bit of reflexes for it. but in his phase 2 i really hate that it just becomes impossible so the tactic i used to counter this was... well... dissapointing. i just stood on the very right of the screen rendering me immune to all attacks except for a very easy to avoid light attack.. this boss was dissapointing but hey at least he had a cool design! 8/10 for the area 10/10 for the music 3/10 for the bosses (if you are wondering why i didnt do this for the other areas its because the music is pretty much fine like nothing is good or bad about it except for in the moon area) now we have the final boss! just instantly! the final boss! who is... THE SUN ITSELF now this boss had the same issue with the moon saint but WAY WORSE the first phase is fun and pretty good! (just like the moon saint) but the phase 2 is just... IMPOSSIBLE no joke.. call it a skill issue, but ALL "SAFE SPOTS" just get destroyed the only was to beat this boss is just dissapointing. theres a very specific area where you just have to stand there AND ATTACK THE BOSS AND DO NOTHING ELSE... AS I SAID, JUST LIKE THE MOON SAINT BUT WAY, WAY WORSE. 2/10 final boss... anyways, the ending is definatly worth it! (which i will not spoil) 7.5/10 AS I SAID, would probably play again, needs some more content and balances.
The game is great, tbh i wanted more content but for an indie studio and a small price, 4 hours of gameplay is decent, Great music and visuals too.
CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP
Strongly Recommended!! I LOVE THE BOSS FIGHTS A LOT! the music was diabolical too, i wish they will publish a DLC soon.
wow the game after the update got a ton more content! tho i think the BANANANA boss need to be nerfed.
