Tiny Whiny Island

[b]PROS:[/b] + chill music + collectibles + great on the Steam Deck [b]CONS:[/b] - wonky controls - lifeless world - super short - no steam cloud [b]Comment:[/b] Accidentally stumbled upon this game and thought I would give it a try. It looked cute and fun enough. Seemed like it could be inspired by Postman Pat. But upon starting the game you immediately notice the stiff controls. This is accompanied by useless moves assigned to buttons - backflip (in place) and wheelie (tilt backwards). Neither of these help when you get stuck in terrain. They are just for show and the trailer I guess. Now the island itself can be explored and there some interesting places, like the active volcano or the lighthouse. But most of it are just copy and paste models and roads that lead in a circle. The whole island, including the inhabitants, feels wooden and lifeless. What adds a little bit are the collectibles to add at least some extra game time. Speaking of game time, the "story" itself is almost non-existent. You deliver a couple of letters and that is it. It takes about an hour (or less) to do a 100% run, if you do not goof off or explore the island more. You do get to play after finishing th…

What a cute little game. Spend roughly a hour and a half, exploring, collecting, and delivering mail, while helping the townsfolk. Would have liked if the camera followed behind instead of having to constantly rotate the camera, but it wasn't a big deal. Ran ok, i didn't have any issues.

gus gonna get some play bru

absolutely adorable tiny island. i couldnt find the last letter ([spoiler] i found it today, just go around the island on the sand/beach [/spoiler] ) but i had a fun time riding the bike, though i needed some practice in the first jumps haha. (it was good with controller)

This is honestly a really chill relaxing game with some cool platforming challenges. I went around, collected mushrooms and paper planes, and delivered letters to some NPCs. I like the story telling through peeking at the letters and found the two italian brothers who own competing restaurants and sending each other cease and desist letters really funny. definitely recommend it if you're looking for a chill fun game.

This game is the epythome of "depends on your mood" If i play it when im in the mood for it, then its ok. If im not, i start to see the flaws, which aren't things like bugs or this sort, but the Art and the mechanics in general. They feel... weird. Or out of place, that's how i would describe this game It's literally surreal but not in a good way. It looks like it was made with or by AI. The story is... idk man nothing much but You cant even focus on it cuz its not really important. U cant play the game more than once like finish it then replay it, cuz it would be extremely boring due to the fact that the game is pretty short and you dont have anything to do beside do some parkour-esque tricks to collect these mushrooms that shine with the most outwordly template, they literally look like they came from another game or idk man, I just use the environment to test things jump around review my Skillz and reflexes, and maybe test different weak systems from time to time, to see how they run this game. So for that its good. I wouldnt call this a game but more like a benchmark to be fair. its a Tiny game.
