My boss is a frog?!


I applied for a job at Tadpole Incorporated as a "professional friend". Now they want me to go to a bunch of islands to help everyone I meet. If I don't prove myself, I'm out of a job! Luckily the folks around here are kind. Kind and a bit weird. Should I just enjoy island life while I'm here?

To clarify:
  • Yes, my boss eats bugs and stuff.
  • Yes, he does wear a tie.
  • Type of frog? A green one?
  • Everyone I meet seems to be some sort of animal. How did I end up here?

Sincerely,
Niko

How to be a professional friend


Hi, Pepper here. I'm an executive manager at Tadpole Inc.

A professional friend is someone who is a friend to everybody! And who occasionally gets paid. On your journey, you'll meet many creatures that need help. Help them with catching fish, making art, or by just listening to their worries. If you're lucky you'll get a coin. Invest your coins in the railways so you can travel to new islands. Before you know it you'll be doing big business!

Travel tips


In Here Comes Niko you'll be able to explore 6 different islands! Play on Hairball City's lovely beaches, take a stroll through Salmon Creek Forest's luscious mountain trail, swim at the public pool. It's time to unwind, don't you think?

This has the vibes of a smaller game, and I think that's okay! I had fun talking to the animal characters and collecting goodies. It's hard to avoid comparing it to Gears for Breakfast's other 3D collectation, A Hat in Time. AHIT is definitely much better than this. That doesn't mean Niko is bad, it's just a smaller project. I recommend both games but recommend AHIT first.

A pretty short but still very enjoyable 3D platformer. You play as Nico who just got a job as a Professional Friend. Go out into the various towns, helping people with their problems and receiving quarters for your trouble. The game plays a lot like A Hat in Time and Demon Tide, so if you're a fan of either of those, you'll likely enjoy this game too.

A short, simple and sweet 3D platformer. If you like wholesome, feel-good exploration platformers this should be right up your alley. It controls well enough, though if I'm being honest, it's not the best controls wise, the player character get's stuck on some level geometry here and there and the platforms are not super precise, but the game is very forgiving so it's not a huge deal. The story is simple but sweet, as are most character interactions. Though the game likes to dip into (very light, cartoony) unsettling situations every now and then. Which, while not being bad, feel ill-fitting. Also it is quite short, I beat the main story in roughly 4 hours while being relatively thorough with my exploration. So I would recommend waiting for a discount.

Fun puzzles and platforming challenges in a vibrant and colorful world filled with cute, charming, incredibly well-drawn characters. I loved it! It soothed some of the feelings of depression that had been gnawing away at me. I'd offer Niko a coin if I could, because she's brought joy to my heart like only a professional friend could.
