Fantastic game, very enjoyable platforming. Will not hold your hand in many cases, you need to be very aware of how things in the environment look (looking at you slug positioning and scarabs) if you want to 100%! If you go for it, definitely go for the teleportation quest... I mean... it's a metroidvania, you really need the teleportation!

The graphics and core of a modern platformer like Rayman, with the more engaging movement and casual vibes of pinball games and a truly unique (Polynesian?) theming with weird (and sometimes unnerving) looking creatures, all in the package of a little ladybug game that has to deliver mail to all the island residents. (A MUST STEAMDECK GAME) The travelling can be a bit tedious, but it's never not engaging in my opinion. I loved every pinball, the world and all the hints & secrets you find along your adventure. Have you ever played a pinball game where you fight bosses and must help a god? If no, this is your time.

I didn't recognize this game until recently, this one is an amazing game, here are why: pros - most innovative metroidvania ever - amazing art, sound, gameplay, overall great production - the map is big and the exploration is fun as hell - no corpse runs or any other fake timesinks - fast travel system, once you get the hang of it, is incredible and opens up a lot of possibilities - lots of side quests to do neutral - this is an easy game, you simply don't die - therefore doesn't last long but it's ok - controls are usually great but you can't slowly press the flippers - the story isn't super original but it's cute as hell and there's a big plot twist. cons: - too few boss fights, essentially 3. I mean it's ok but boss fights are tense and fun. - too few different upgrades.

Spent way too long backtracking the whole game and post game just because the devs didn't want to implement quick warp back to the post office. Some pinball stages felt hellish to fully complete due to bad oversight. Really needed a toggable post game secrets revealer. Otherwise it was an incredible time.

I used to play Sonic Spinball on the demo Genesis unit at the local Sears. Yoku's scratches that itch without having to wade through rows of cheap clothing and overpriced tools.
