A Fugu's Dive

Having finished my 3rd run now, I'm happy to say I really enjoyed A Fugu's Dive. If you're a fan of other rage climbing platformers ("Foddians") like Getting Over It, Jump King, A Difficult Game About Climbing, Slimper, etc., you'll certainly appreciate this one too. As usual in the genre, there is a mystery waiting for you at the top of the map, and after being introduced to the controls, you'll need to decide if you have enough curiosity and determination to find out exactly what it is. The simple mouse-only movement mechanic is fun to master, and the difficulty certainly lives up to the genre. The physics are extremely consistent and I encountered no gameplay bugs to speak of. However, the real standout qualities are the polished art style and environmental design, with the cheery cartoon world provoking a feeling of calm contentment in contrast to the punishing gameplay. It's just so lovely to look at that you can't stay mad for too long, even after failing the same jump for the 20th time in a row or launching at the perfectly wrong angle to send you tumbling down to the bottom of the zone.

My Playthrough : https://youtu.be/GM2yLSPKdbs Overall : 5/10 Average, adds nothing to the genre. Carried by exceptional graphics. Graphics : 10,000/10 Super polished, gorgeous, and SO cute. imo on par with big games. Audio : 5/10 Nothing memorable. Gameplay: 5/10 A typical rage bait game. • I didn’t know how to play at first, just a one-line tutorial would be enough. • How do I respawn at a checkpoint? There are no control settings. I’ve tried R, Space, Enter, etc. Bug? • The game's icon on taskbar is still the Unity logo.
