No game better encapsulates the idea of puzzle-platformer. There are platformers that have puzzles, and puzzle games that have platforming, but this is the first game in which the actual platforming IS the puzzle. It will test your video game literacy. Very impressed
Those last few levels were cruel. XD HECK YEAH FOR MARLEY!
this was difficult for my tiny brain to understand but once I got it I got it. very interesting/unique design!
