-SPROUT-

Very nice precision platformer (like Celeste) with a very nice soundtrack (I also write music in that style). As a lover of Celeste and precision platformers in general, I enjoyed this little gem.

This game was really fun! Its very well polished and a very streamlined experience. I really loved areas 3 and 4. It's certainly worth the price and I will definitely head back to it to try the achievements!

I do not understand how the hell this game has positive reviews... -Abyss level is pure ripoff of Ori and the Will of the Wisps zone called Mouldwood Depths where player needs to run from light source to light source before darkness devours him. -Game difficulty is a joke, beaten entire game within 2 hours being terrible at games overall (playing Ori and the Blind Forest took me like 30 hours and like 2000 deaths, while i didn't even complete Super Meat Boy) -TRAPS MOVE AND KILL PLAYER DURING PAUSE GAME!!!!!!!!! -Controller does not work properly - you cannot dash like you can on keyboard. -You can actually stand on the edge of platform with spikes and the hitbox of fire balls is 3 times smaller then its size. The cute pixel graphics and tracker chiptune music does not save the game. I'm aware this was made partially during Game Jam but still why the hell is this worth few dollars? This does not deserve to be paid.

Fun little platformer with tight controls, although a tad too short. Very nice experience nonetheless.

一つ一つのレベル（ステージ）がとても小さい2Dプラットフォーマー。1レベルは数秒で終わるような小ささで、20レベルで1エリア。エリアは全部で5つ。20×5=100レベルある。エリアにはそれぞれそのエリアを象徴するギミックがある。 アクションゲームとしての操作感はcelesteに近い。特にこれといった癖もなく、アクションゲームに慣れた人ならプレイを始めた瞬間から気持ちよく動かせるはず。 単にすべてのエリアをクリアするだけなら１時間程度で終わるが、このゲームの醍醐味はその後のコレクションアイテムの収集やスピードランにある。各エリアの目標タイムは2分で設定されている。 プレイを重ねるほどに自分のスキルの上達とこのゲームのさらなる奥深さに気づくだろう。他の人のレビューを見る限り、全実績解除にはアクションゲームが得意な人は5時間程度、そうでない人は10時間以上かかるらしい。

Sprout is easily one of my favourite bitesize platformers out there, its a simple 2d platformer with a dash mechanic, featuring 5 worlds each with their own gimmicks. The gameplay is simple yet fluid and each level is relatively short, the achievements to speedrun and flawlessly do everything, both work really well for how simple yet clever the level design is, its speedy on purpose and it flows really well, and within each world the gimmicks thrown in take time to adjust to but still aren't overwhelming and do their purpose very well to add some variety to the mix. The graphics ill admit feel a tad simple, and spikes can blend in a little sometimes but it isn't too much of an issue plus the game risks losing its simplicity if it were more complex so, who knows? The music is astonishingly good for a small short indie platformer, especially the abyss zone, i was crazily shocked to hear how good it sounds, the game excels in this department and can't praise it enough. Overall the game is just generally really solid, allowing for casual players to take their time and figure things out and for more advanced players to whizz through and push themselves for deathless/speedrun achievements, absolutely pick this up whenever you can.

To put it simply, Sprout is a very focused game. It is a very minimalist platformer that has been distilled to give you a pure platforming experience perfect for speedrunning and those that like to challenge themselves. It's a short game but the replayability comes from the want to master each level. You know what you're in for when you play Sprout - a mini platforming puzzle with no frills attached. The graphics, music, presentation, and juice is all there (I'm a big fan of the visuals and how the game is presented.) but you can tell it is a game that strips down the unnecessary to provide a pure lesson in platforming and game design. It's good at what it does. It's precise, simple and it is easy to want to run each mini level again and again to get a better time/score. The leaderboards are a great incentive to want to strive for the number one position. If only I wasn't so bad at platformers.

VERY GOOD GAME!!!

If you like arcade games and/or precision platformers, -SPROUT- really scratches the itch better than just about any game I’ve played in recent memory! The chiptunes are incredibly memorable, the pixel art is crisp and chunky, and most importantly, the gameplay is airtight! A perfectly scoped game for anyone who enjoys a good, sweaty controller! 😅

"-SPROUT-" is a nice little precision platformer with tight controls and fast-paced gameplay, featuring colorful and distinctive worlds both aesthetically and gameplaywise. You can beat it blind in about an hour and can start running and achievement-hunting it afterwards. One minor complaint: The walljump feels very restrictive in its angle.
