Tiny Hunter

[b]Tiny Hunter[/b] is a platformer in which you play as an antivirus clearing files of viruses by killing them and platforming to the end of each level. Everything is presented with that idea in mind, with the game's menus being inside a computer and levels being presented as files. Even as a pretence to give players a bunch of levels to play, it's simple but works well and doesn't detract from what you actually want here: running through levels at the speed of sound, dashing like a madman to the exit. Gameplay is on the complex side here, with a huge array of movement options - it truly is a technical platformer to the core. You can run, jump, double jump and triple jump; you can dash forward, but also downward and upward; you can even combine all of these movement options to create slightly different variations that let you get more speed, distance or height. It's honestly a joy to work with such a varied moveset that feels great to master, especially when the levels start getting really hard. And here is where the other side of [b]Tiny Hunter[/b] shines: every level has a Speedrun mode, with a timer and no checkpoints. Retries are very fast and thanks to the game's moveset, you've got lots of routing and options to do in order to get the best times possible. It's a game built with speedrunning in mind and it clearly shows it. Although I'm not a big fan of speedrunning myself, I can't wait to see how fast skilled people are going to finish some levels! My main gripe with the game would be a lack of settings and accessibility options, as well as a soundtrack that's a bit too repetitive and bosses I didn't enjoy as much as the levels. They're fine for the most part, as they're tough but can be beaten quicker with some smart thinking - they're just a bit less interesting than the main levels which keep challenges fresh. I could see the dev adding more accessibility features in the future that could help with this, as well as bonus levels with more mechanics, but what is there is already quite solid for such a low price. All in all, [b]Tiny Hunter[/b] is an interesting platformer - it looks like a hardcore, tough-as-nails precision platformer at first glance, and it kind of is! But although later levels get quite more difficult, you can always go back and play the earlier ones after having grown as a player. Not a lot of games manage to get that progression right while having such an extended moveset and that's why I absolutely recommend it, especially at that price and with a demo to test the water.

Just played an hour of Tiny Hunter and it's a great, challenging platformer. Playing without a controller was really difficult (as someone who rarely plays keyboard only) but great fun and I'm a big fan of the speed run mode. Clean and clear UI with a steep but fun challenge curve. If you're into twitchy 2D platformers and have an appetite for speed running, well worth a look!

Un bon petit jeu dont la difficulté augmente au fur et à mesure que vous progressez ! Jolie DA avec une jouabilité très fluide ! Si vous aimez Celeste, Hollow Knight, Super Meat Boy, n'hésitez plus ! Le prix est également très abordable surtout pour un contenu de plus d'une centaine de niveau et un mode Speedrun pour ceux qui aiment le challenge !

Tiny Hunter a un gameplay très très propre ! La prise en main est excellente et la physique est loin d'être abusée. Tout cela combiné à un level design solide et une marge de progression cohérente : ça promet juste du lourd. Ce jeu a clairement été pensé pour les amateurs de speedrun ; mais là où Tiny Hunter est super c'est qu'il reste accessible aux joueurs moyens. Étant clairement un débutant, j'arrive pourtant à m'amuser alors que certains niveaux sont difficiles et c'est pas peu de le dire ! En fait, Tiny Hunter réussit très bien à maintenir l'équilibre entre difficile et gratifiant. Pour finir, n'oubliez pas de soutenir vos petits développeurs locaux, surtout quand leurs jeux sont aussi propres que celui là, et alors qu'ils coûtent moins d'un demi-kebab. Merci beaucoup aux développeurs de m'avoir fait découvrir ce jeu en convention !

Un jeu indé d'une grosse difficulté si vous voulez tout finir à 100%, pour tous ceux qui ont appréciés celeste et super meat boy. De plus, pour un prix inférieur à celui d'un sandwich, vous aurez des heures de jeu et tryhard devant vous :)

Very good indie platformer with influences from Super Meat Boy, Celeste and Ori. If you like these kind of games, try this one, it's quite hard and challenging.

Great indie game. A really top level design, a multitude of really interesting mechanics and a really hard execution demand. We take pleasure to play and die in loop until finally succeeding certain level. Congratulations to its creator. A great little game to test and enjoy.
