I got this because I love the party game Heave Ho. This game takes the core mechanic of Heave Ho, turns it into a linear platformer, and gives it a story. It even adds a couple of extra powers. Some of these levels are extremely creative. Overall, it's done very well, but wow, this game is frustratingly challenging. Some parts of this game are mentally exhausting from testing your patience. I do like it, but it's almost too hard. This game isn't for everyone, but for those who are looking for a challenge, they'll find it here.

Its the name of the game. A limp appendage paired with a convulsive one guiding a blind con-jointed heads named Troy and Hector that both can scream and yell for various reasons but seems to be their primary source of communication. Additionally, both have individual styles of apparel. During this journey they fight in the modern Left vs Right showdown in order to inch & crawl towards some middle ground. A frustrating hilarious masterpiece. 10/10

Did you ever play Ren and Stimpy on Sega back in the day? Earthworm Jim? This game is like those in terms of style, graphics and jokes, it has a very nostalgic feel if you've ever played those. The level design is great, you always know what you gotta do to proceed. I feel bad that I got this on sale, because these guy really put their hearts into this game. The only "con" is it's a QUOP type game. Another summation i can think of is a longer, 2D side-scroller Octodad, with just as much charm. Highly recommend
