Nov. 2024
As much as I love Metroidvanias it’s nice to have a level based 2D platformer. It feels so rare nowadays. This one is really good. If you go for everything there’s plenty to get your money’s worth. Going fast for the speedrun time is pretty fun or getting a perfect on every level. The perfect is the speedrun time and all the parts. Not everything about the game is great. My biggest problem is that the hitboxes feel off. It might be me but I’ve felt like I’m not touching the thing and still die. There are 76 levels (48 + 4 bosses + 24 bonus levels postgame that you unlock by getting perfects). Most of the levels are great or good but I really didn’t like some of them. A few levels are gimmick based and some say it’s a nice change of pace but I didn’t have fun with most of them. Thankfully there aren't that many of those. The final boss kinda sucked. Not that hard just really long. A 2 minute fight and kept messing up a minute in. The bonus levels were by far the best levels in the game. You start off with just a jump then quickly get a double jump then a dash. The game gets really good once you get the dash. Most games you only get one dash in the air but there’s no limit here. It’s really fun moving around in the air to get a fast time and items. Overall as much as some parts made me angry the rest of the game makes up for it. This game has a hard mode that’s normal but with 7 lives. Not a chance I can beat the game (52 levels) with 7 lives. The only achievement I can’t get. 24/25 hurts lol

Just beat the game. Visually the game is amazing. I love the colors and sprite animations as well as how the animations for the enemy objects have very clear timing to them. As far as gameplay I really like how as you progress through the levels it introduces new abilities to spice things up and the level designs grow with each new upgrade. I thought the level design was very challenging. Me and my friend died over 100 times to beat the game. I was surprised at the comedic element of the game. I tried to jump on Emilys head as she was flying around as a monitor and she actually responded to it. Nice little touches like that. I can see this game as a franchise.

A nearly perfect platformer designed with speed in mind. BZZZT is one of the best platformers I have played in a long time. Pros: - Every level is designed with speed in mind. If you play fast, every obstacle and moving platform is set up perfectly to allow for continuous movement - Optional perfect clear achievements for each level exist, rewarding collecting everything and playing fast - Levels are all challenging but fair - Music and graphics are great - Optional bonus levels for people who want more of the game Cons: - The game is on the shorter side. My playtime includes all Steam achievements as well as perfect clears of all the bonus levels. If you are not aiming for perfect clears on every level, the campaign can be reasonably completed in around an hour the first time through. If you are not interested in 100% completion, consider waiting for a sale.

This game is the definition of short and sweet. Pros -Great bite sized levels that are challenging but fair to achieve all the extra goals in addition to just completing it. -Jammin' soundtrack -Gives each new ability introduced time to breathe before giving you a new one. -Works fantastic on the Steam Deck -While not directly game specific, the developer is very responsive and helpful to issues/suggestions posted on the forums. Cons -Bosses/secrets in the game stray a bit from the basic platforming challenges, which can be hit or miss for some players. I found them to be fine at best, but definitely preferred the standard levels. -Those that like to get 100% achievements may find completing Insane mode (only 7 lives for the whole game) a bit frustrating, but it is possible! Highly recommended if you want a game on the shorter side and enjoy platforming challenges.
