Rotund Takeoff

The gameplay of this game simply consists of pressing right or left in addition to the jump but the game requires precision and mastery which makes it rather difficult during certain phases.

Quick score: 5/5 Notes: Quality platformer all around. If you like what you see in the trailer just buy it, you won't regret it. Well, unless you are a completionist, in which case god help you lol. As far as speedrunning goes, this is one of the most difficult platformers on steam to 100%, which is shocking considering how cute and simplistic the game is on the surface. If you are extremely skilled at platforming games you might be able to 100% it in 30 hours at best if you use a guide. Game is fine for a casual playthrough, so if you aren't super into speedrunning no reason to avoid the game entirely. But if you are someone who enjoys challenging games, this is the game for you. It took me about 35 hours, using mostly other peoples guides/routes, to get 100% completion.

Wonderfully cute IL platformer that becomes a decent challenge as you progress. It's not as good as the sequel, Rotund Rebound, but it's a solid game well worth your time! Check out https://store.steampowered.com/curator/41559946 for more recommendations!

This game is better quality than more than 75% of the dog S***t that gets released and upvoted because of boobs. Play this game. Its awesome.

When you first check out Rotund Takeoff, you're probably going to think it's some kind of platformer. It both is and isn't. If I had to classify it, it's closer to a very unconventional and challenging hybrid between a racing game and a puzzle game, because the point of the thing is to figure out shortcuts in order to get faster times rather than to just survive to the end of the stage. You will die a lot, but again, that is the point. You can't take it slowly and carefully if you want to get through to the end. You need to play with bold and reckless confidence and hurl this fat rabbit forward with zero regard whatsoever for its safety. Respawning is quick and painless and doesn't disrupt the flow of gameplay at all, and there doesn't seem to be any benefit to making it through any of the stages without dying once. Controls are very easy and intuitive and the entire game is playable with one hand (both WASD and arrow keys work). The music and graphics are fine. I would definitely recommend this game to speedrunners and the kind of gamers who prioritize things like high scores and fast times. This gameplay concept is pretty brilliant, actually. Give it a shot.

Usually I am not the biggest fan of precision platformers, but somehow this one clicked for me. Controls are simple, levels for the most part are well designed and challenging, (with some frustrating ones in between, looking at you World 4 and some of 5) and going for some gold medals is really satisfying once ya get the stage layout down. Only major gripe is with the bosses, World 3's and the final boss are a bit rough sometimes. Other than that, I don't really have much to say. It's actually pretty good for a remake of a Wii U eShop game. I like it.

This is coming from someone who's played so much of the original game that this is a remake of, but I love this game. Amazing gameplay and concept, great visuals, an incredible soundtrack, and so much replay value with the emphasis on speedrunning. If you like platformers that can get very challenging, this is a must-play. I genuinely consider this one of the best games in the platformer genre of all time.

This game demands precision, accuracy and perfection. It will test your timing, patience and the strength of your very soul. It's a very unique game in its classification. I would put it in the bouncing speedrun platform category. Simple controls, simple objective, clear graphics--but beware of the obstacles and the clock. Fun game that will test your will to die in order to advance. Looking forward to the sequel. Find out what happens to the evil carrot and give it a try!
