Look no further, Flynn: Son of Crimson is exactly what you're looking for. Set on the vibrant island of Rosantica that's been struck by an ethereal evil, the game follows Flynn, a young hero tasked with protecting his homeland from the corruption known as the Scourge. The story is very linear and simple to follow, but the more you learn, the more depths and layers you discover about it (and the more the title of the game makes sense lol) Gameplay is where the game really shines. Unlike more rigid retro platformers, Flynn’s controls are tight and modern, allowing for precise movement and fluid combat. As you progress, you unlock different elemental abilities (like fire, ice, and lightning), which add variety to both combat and puzzle-solving. This system keeps things fresh and gives you a sense of growth that feels meaningful rather than incremental. The soundtrack is really good and complements areas of this adventure very nicely, enhancing emoti…

Old-school 2D platformer that is chill to progress through with classic art and music to boot. Basic story keeps you going to the next stage and the different unlock and level mechanics keep things interesting enough. Mostly linear but the small amount of doubling back for challenge stages, hidden items and reuse of maps for the scourge are done decently without making things feel repetitive. Couple of fun boss fights toward the end a very chill play experience.

This is a pretty decent platformer in my opinion. The story and gameplay feels normal to me but that probably because I've played tons of platforming game in my entire life. The story is just a simple save someone without heavy plot twist and such but the gameplay is where the game shines. The skills you can unlock make it more fun to attack enemies, the level design are fine and boss battles are fun. The normal enemies do feel a little buff though which can make it feel like a chore to attack them. Also I love the pixel art a lot, it's really beautiful. You can see the soul and hard works of the artist throughout the game. Overall it's alright. Not really for a hardcore gamer but would feel nice to a casual gamer

A great retro platformer.

This SNES style game was fun, but there wasn't enough dog time with Dex for me which was why I wanted the game. I'd still recommend. After all, there's a dog, and she's a good girl.

Quite fun. I like the animation alot, and I love the big puppy. It does feel like there isnt enough coyote time, and that can make platforming a little difficult.
