Chill

It's just a really chill side-scrolling platformer with some minor puzzle mechanics that get progressively and comfortably more difficult over the course of the game. The ambient soundtrack/noise is incredibly relaxing. Nothing overly complicated here, just really fun game.

Not my cup of tea. Might be a good game for people who like frustrating puzzles. You roll a marble in a two D world, trying to move off the right side of the screen. Sometimes you gain abilities, sometimes you lose them. Seems pretty. Keyboard only, FYI. No thumbs down, a total meh for me.

Straight out of the 2000s flash era, this is an enjoyable physics sphere platformer enjoyable in bite sized chunks. The game provides 10 different areas, each featuring 13 levels. Each level is composed of 3 screens, and the controls and abilities of your sphere vary between levels. You generally have left/right rolling, and sometimes brakes, boost, or gravity inversion. Some levels also feature vehicles. There is also an alternate variant of each level accessible by creating a second save. These levels are harder, and require movement mastery rather than getting a lucky bounce as you might survive on in the main game. In general, you will find the first few areas a bit stale as the game does start very easy. But you will begin to encounter "walls" where a level just seems too hard - either through a puzzle that doesn't make sense, or just execution difficulty. Taking breaks and trying again later, or bouncing around to other areas to play different levels, gives you the space to come back and push through the challenge. Overall, I found completing the entire game to be satisfying, coming back periodically to knock out whatever stopped me last session, and making constant progress. The hidden stars - once you learn what their exit locations look like - are a satisfying way to find alternate exits in the marked stages. On a sale, this game is absolutely worth picking up for ~8 hours of spherical platforming challenges.

很好，很有趣

Сначала - да, вроде красивая игрушка, приятные звуки, головоломки какие-то, ну вот посидеть пару часов позалипать. ПОТОМ это становится невыносимым насилием над кнопками, кучей попыток просто совладать с неудобным управлением, короткими таймингами, головоломки уходят на второй план, вся сложность начинает заключаться только в душноте геймплея; а графика, на самом деле, выглядит скорее сыро, чем минималистично. Но цвета приятные, все же просто трата времени

A beautiful puzzle platformer, cast in a lovely ever-changing set of worlds, in which most of the colour is found in the background. You play as a ball, or sphere, as the game describes it, and you have to use your environment to complete a large collection of puzzles. Some levels allow you to flip gravity, to brake, to sprint or dash, some levels even have pinball paddles for you to control, or contraptions for you to ride. There's tons of obstacles to discover, and in some cases, use to your advantage. Looking at the art style, I had an inkling who developed the game, and lo and behold, I was correct. The same person who created the Knytt series, created this, and it shows with how much passion was poured into it. Honestly, you should really give this game a go, it's criminally underrated and will pose a serious challenge in certain sections!
