Almost There: The Platformer

Simple graphics but addictive gameplay requiring sharp reflexes and patience. Prepare for funny falls and moments of exciting challenge a great platformer that keeps you hooked from start to finish.

Geometry dashes little cousin. Time trial platformer where precision is important. Great game to pass the time or try get a high score. Reminds me of cool maths games in school.

Your basic platformer game. It's decently fun, with a few frustrating levels, but that's all part of it. The reason I'm not recommending this game, though, is for two reasons that, while they don't seem that bad, make me hesitant to recommend it. For one, the achievements are very buggy, often not unlocking and requiring you to replay a level or restart the game for them to pop. On top of that, all of them are labeled as out of 100. I guess it's meant to be a percentage rather than just showing how many stars you are missing. The second reason is gameplay related. The homing missile launchers either need some form of telegraphing, whether audio or visual, or they need to be consistent. The amount of time I spent running my head into a wall waiting for one to shoot the same way it did previously so my route would work was just annoying. Overall, if you got it for pennies or free and like 2D platformers, maybe give it a shot. Otherwise, it's not worth investing your time into.

Non functioning garbage I have uninstalled within minutes. Buh-bye!

Pick any other popular precision platformer. Buy it instead (doesn't matter which). It will have better personality and style than this game. Made for gamers who hate themselves.

Almost There: The Platformer, developed by Bony Yousuf and published by The Quantum Astrophysicists Guild, is a stripped-down precision platformer that commits completely to mechanical challenge over presentation or narrative. It doesn’t try to charm you with characters or immerse you in a story; instead, it focuses entirely on execution, asking players to master movement through a series of tightly designed obstacle courses. From the outset, it’s clear that this is a game built for players who enjoy testing their reflexes and patience rather than exploring or experimenting. The core mechanics are deceptively simple. You run, jump, and occasionally interact with walls or momentum-based movement, guiding a small geometric avatar through levels packed with hazards. The simplicity is intentional, as it allows the game to build difficulty purely through level design rather than introducing an overwhelming number of mechanics. Early stages act as training grounds, gradually teaching players how to handle timing, spacing, and rhythm. As the game progresses, these elements are layered together into increasingly demanding sequences that require near-perfect execution. What makes the expe…
