The game was so much fun, I laughed so much! And the slapping makes it even better xD They look sooo cute! I'm looking forward to the next Episode! ♥ Edit: I was so happy when I saw the new 3rd Episode. But it was pretty short and boring. I'm a bit disappointed. But I'm still looking forward to the next episode! I hope it will be better and longer!

If your friends live far away, don’t play this game — because you have to host the server, and that means they’ll lag so hard it’s like they’re stuck in molasses. This game is co-op, but it only works if your friends are close enough to have a low ping. Like, you know, actual close friends sitting nearby or on the same Wi-Fi. Otherwise, everyone else will be teleporting, dying randomly, and yelling at their screens. Also, heads up — the last level is pretty tough even if you’re not lagging. If you are lagging, good luck. You’ll probably die a lot and break the chain, which just adds to the frustration. And trust me, after a few rounds of “Why are you lagging?!” and “It’s your fault!” you might find yourself... with no friends left. So yeah, if you want to test your friendships or lose them entirely, this game is perfect. TL;DR: Only play if your friends are near you — otherwise, prepare to say goodbye to your squad.

Pros: ✔️ Game is funny to play with friends ✔️ I like the model of the teddybears! ✔️ Concept is really fun and if continued to be done properly would be an interesting playable game! Cons: ❌ Desync issues mean that Running + Jumping is difficult ❌ Motionblur makes it so It's difficult for me to be able to play the game ❌ The chains are way too tight. That mixed with Desync and other lag issues means I constantly get jolted back and it hurts mine and others heads ❌ Had a friend had to quit the game because the desync was so bad it kept jittering the screen and causing their head to hurt. ❌ Random game breaking bugs keep happening at seemingly random. ( Screen violently shaking, players getting teleported backwards for seemingly no reason.. ) ❌ Players falling for no reason, flying everywhere and jumping at the same time causes all of the players to fly in a tornado like pattern for seemingly no issue?? ❌ Spacebar seemingly sometimes doesn't wish to work and refuses to take imput. Again, seemingly at random ❌ Puzzles that include having to throw stuff is IMPOSSIBLE when working with desync / lag issues. The game is really promising!! I enjoy the game but it's currently a really buggy mess haha
