Telmari

Simple mechanics will delight both slow players and speedrunners. The story follows Telmari, who wakes up one day to discover that her prized sunflowers have been overtaken by roots. They must be coming from the large tree in the distance, so she grabs her plunger and goes to investigate. First and foremost, this is neither an adventure or metroidvania type of game. Each screen is a separate puzzle of obstacles where the objective is to reach the other end of the screen. You can go back to any completed puzzle from the main menu. There are no collectibles or bonuses to worry about, but you can get a speedrunner trophy by completing the stage before the cat. Although the game takes you through four different zones, the mechanics remain mostly the same. It involves the plunger. You can fire as many times as you wish, and plungers will stick to practically any surface. The girl can jump, but she has to use springy plungers to get higher and farther. You can shoot straight ahead, up or down diagonally. That’s all you need to know. It sounds simple, but stages can be quite tricky. The limitation is that you can only bounce off a plunger twice before it breaks. You also can’t use it to beat enemies standing in your way. All you can do is dodge them with plungers. You will die frequently because a single hit can kill you. Fortunately, the respawn is fast and does not require you to wait for any loading screens. The only quibble is that enemies do not return to their old positions when you die. This may not seem like a big problem, but it turns out that the optimal way to beat a stage is when foes are in their starting spots. Because the cat does not have to worry about enemies, this problem solely affects speedrunners. Another small issue is that the game doesn't have a lot of eye candy. The art is nice and fluid, but assets repeat throughout the zone.

I love this game, from the simple mechanic that is hard to master, to how complicated levels get as you progress on the game. If you want a platform that tests your metal and you patience, this one is for you.

El primer par de horas han sido muy positivas. Con muchas ganas de continuar. Un plataformas hecho para los fans del género. Actualización: Ya lo he terminado. Muy divertido y muy recomendable. Dadle una oportunidad!!

I love tihs game, its to hardd but that is one of the thing i love of tihs game. i have not finished it yet but i would love to do so in a near future, i always play it after school with my little sister.

Truly one of the best 2D games I ever tried. I`m not used to play 2D games because of personal experience, but this one is so freaking good. I had a lot of fun exploring the new mechanics in this game. The idea of you making your own way to complete the levels is something that makes you free. I'm not a speedrunner but i can see it's potencial. This game will explode in a few months, if you want a casual game for having fun and speedrunning game you can have both of these things here. The colors are nice, they selected a really good color palette for the game, i love how the enemies have specific colors to warn you from the danger that they represent. i would love to have a sandbox mode to create my own levels, that's all i can say for now. I don't have much time to play due my career but i will give it some more hours in a future. 10/10

I have played about 30 levels and it has been an extraordinary experience, it reminds me of the best platforms of the past, a lot of attention to artistic detail and mechanics, without a doubt, what I like most is that it has very precise physics

I have been following the development of this game for a while and I finally have it, I am fascinated by the mechanics of jumping on a plunger, very original and fun, I really recommend it to everyone.

¡Guau! Un juego muy diferente a lo que estoy acostumbrada en el buen sentido de la palabra. Encantada con esa espectacular mecánica que han introducido Pheonix Blasters. Hay que reconcer su mejor aspecto que es el espléndido mundo del que formaremos parte, es super divertido. Estoy ansiosa de llegar al final, a ver si no tardo mucho rato. ;)

A truly fantastic game! Much of the prestigious work it seen in the programming, through performance and visual art with level design which is ferocious and uncanny. The fast pacing, and fast thinking resource which you ought to tap on to in order to finish the screens as fast as possible can be frustrating, but it is truly fulfilling when beaten to the fullest. A game with a great amount of speedrunning potential with a relatively long runs. There is also a unique incentive which revolve around a secondary character that races you in each level, and which you must beat in order to collect all of the trophies and achievement. And the truly most impressive aspect which many pixel enthusiast will enjoy is the atmospheric influx whit its music and all the graphical design. holding vivid colour distinct in each world and ambient effect that truly brings the world alive. It does hold minor issues as of now, which you can expect from a newer company and game, nothing game breaking though.

Game is solid, graphics as well as smooth game play. Feels like I am playing mario back in the early 2000s. Cant forget about the catchy music specially when you are trying to beat a level to its rythm.
