About
Iko is an aspiring yet hopeful warrior exploring the land and sky to reunite a series of floating islands. With his rickety airship, he must travel from island to island in order to reignite each one’s magnetic core while fighting off the many adversaries standing in his way.
Islets is a surprisingly wholesome metroidvania about making connections with the people around you. By reuniting the islands and befriending a cast of charming characters, the world expands and reveals new parts of each area for Iko to explore. Scour every nook and cranny in order to collect the many upgrades hidden around this world and face its numerous hidden challenges!
There’s also a tour guide to show you around, but you should be careful. The guy’s got some really weird vibes...
Connect the islands like a puzzle to discover new ways to explore previous areas and reunite the vast world around you.
Fight back against terrifying monsters and ruthless sky pirates in epic boss battles.
Discover upgrades to help you on your journey by completing challenges and uncover the islands’ many secrets.
Make friends with a wide cast of charming characters—including a pretentious warrior classmate, a suspiciously friendly frog, and so many others.

Very nice :3
I just hit 100% completion and am now happily hunting down the remaining achievements. Coming off the punishing difficulty of Nine Sols, Islets was exactly the breath of fresh air I needed. It is incredibly refreshing to play a Metroidvania where you don't have to "try hard" or sweat through every single monster and boss encounter. Instead, the game focuses on delivering a smooth, charming, and genuinely fun experience. The platforming feels great, the world is beautiful, and the progression is super satisfying. If you're looking for a relaxing, well-crafted game to just kick back and enjoy in the evenings without the stress, this is an absolute must-play.
J'ai pas encore fini, mais c'est une promenade de plaisir ! Si vous êtes friand des metroidvania, mettez la difficulté en difficile directement pour "un peu plus de challenge". Le level design est très agréable à prendre en main et bien construit, l'ambiance est sympa et coloré, les boss sont plutôt bien travaillé. J'aime bien le concept et je valide à 100% Qu'attendez vous ? Foncez et bonne aventure !
Cute metroidvania. Bosses were easy to learn. Really enjoyed it
Metroidvania facinho, leve e divertido, recomendo! :)
Très bon jeux. Extrêmement fluide. Pouvoir intéressant au fil du temps.
A really neat metroivania where you don't see the hours pass as you advance it! All the bosses are original, with complex and unique mecanics, which makes them all unpredictible and fun to fight. The artstyle is just amazing, with multiples characters you can interact with during the whole story. It may seem scary to buy a game for a price like that but if you like metroidvania games I'm sure you'll love this one! (And he game is pretty long don't worry) I've discovered Kyle Thompson's games last year with Crypt Custodian on Xbox, and I just fell in love with it. Both are incredible games and I'm still very impressed by Kyle's talent for making such games and his brother Eric's talent for making such great soundtracks for his games. As someone who is working on a video game, that's really inspiring! I'm planning on playing Sheepo next and I can't wait for Well Dweller to come out! (The demo is already available if you're interested, this is probably going to be a solid game too!)
Played many MVs, I love the way this one is structured. Also love how fluid it is in terms of controls and how there is no loading after the initial one.
A great little metroidvania. The progression is smooth with no fluff, so the collectables are fun to hunt without feeling like busy work. I'm a veteran of the genre so I played on hard, which gave a good level of difficulty with the bosses.
it's like Ori and Tunic went to the Planet of Lana and had a baby and this is what came out.
