Kid Bubblegum

This game is a gem, just like every other game from this developer. The mechanics work perfectly, and some moves really take some practice to master.

I'll probably swing back to update this review a bit after finishing the game, but I wanted to leave a bit of a review now that highly recommends the game. It has great level design, fun boss battles, and the platforming with the bubblegum gun works far better than you think. It feels like a natural way of moving around the level as opposed to a gimmick. This will probably be a great game to toss into your speed-running queue for people who like to do that. Outside of that you still get a great retro feeling platformer. Also the Dev is awesome, as they responded pretty quickly to a bug I'd experienced and helped me troubleshoot things so I could get into playing.

Bug has been fixed, fun little game, definitely recommended if you like old-school platformers, not terribly difficult either

Catchy music and a distinct visual style. The pixel art is well done and looks quite polished. The level of challenge is high, certainly a precision platformer without an easy mode. The bubble mechanic requires a little too much in way of quick thinking, even when compared to other games that demand perfection. That said, I see so much potential here and could imagine multiple modes of this game and maybe longer stretches of bubble time (that's what I'm calling it, heh) making for a fun and worthwhile time. Of course, if you're already looking for an intense challenge, it will be satisfying. I consider myself low skill but could feel how I was getting better with each try and more capable of clearing levels. Each time I've returned to this game I thought about returning again, there is appeal here and updates could be of interest. The Xbox controller controls don't feel quite right. The d-pad is best but for some reason the analog stick feels like it would be ideal for me if movement was somehow adjusted to be suited to it.

Fun game! Takes a nice concept and runs with it. Controls take a few levels to get used to, but it's pretty satisfying when you chain a few moves together once you get the hang of it. Definitely worth the asking price for a fun platformer!

This game is a lot of fun. Tricky levels with, thankfully, just a few enemies. Recommended!
