Boris the Sloth

"Well that was pretty fantastic" were the words I said after I finished the game. So that's about what I feel about the game This game is a lovely project that I am happy I got to experience. Each level is clearly crafted with thought and care, the audio design is fantastic, and I was rarely ever left wondering what I was intended to do, if at all. It's incredibly obvious that this game was made with equal amounts of care and skill.

Boris The Sloth is a game changer for me when it comes to platformers, and also me being bias with being a lover of all things Sloth. To capture how a sloth would function as a main character and not a support or enemy truly excites me. The game is pretty short but the puzzles and the ability to shift from real world to spirit world makes the replay-ability.

So, I originally saw the developer post some character designs on Reddit. It immediately piqued my interest, as sloths are my spirit animal. I have to say, this is a very well-done puzzle platformer! The mechanics were really cool, and I enjoyed the way you need to master several different styles of play to make it through. Fan of sloths and koalas? Fan of platformers? Fan of fun mechanics? Totally worth it.

A charming 2D platformer with a lot of heart. The game comes content packed and is a touching throwback to games like Donkey Kong Land/Country. I love the hand-drawn art style, the entire game has a real do it yourself feel to it and in the best way possible. The soundtrack is banging and there are settings for 2 different graphic styles for the main characters and both are equally pleasant. My only major gripe is that there could be more settings in the graphics/video options menus. That being said though, it seems like the devs regularly update the game so maybe that will be included in the future. At the time of this review, I have not yet beaten the game but I am totally satisfied with my purchase. [b]TL: DR;[/b] A fun little 2D platformer, bundled at a great price. Sloth fans don’t “sleep” on this one.

Fought a crow‚ became a ghost‚ moved a tree‚ ate a trippy plan and then died in a spike pit. 10/10.

An entertaining puzzle platformer that gives facts about Sloths. Phaseshift back and forth from the spirit realm to save your friend the Coala in classic "The princess is in another castle" style. A cute little indie game that I would recommend for the low price.
