What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
kind of an annoying word in gaming as of late, but this game is incredibly cozy. the puzzles aren't very hard (as of full base game and first 3 alternative "hard" stages completion) so you have some mental bandwidth to spare to take in the art and music, each spectacular in their own rights. 2011, so it feels a bit like a flash game, but one of the top tier ones you would just replay on a break or something just to experience it again. it also has the length of one, with the game probably taking two hours tops if you aren't trying to do slick tricks (there are a lot of spots to do them, I got a lot of fun out of probably unintended clear methods). i don't think it's worth $10, but checking steamDB the game has gone on sale to $0.99 during every major steam sale in the past year (i.e. once per season) so get it for that

Nifflas's second best platformer in which you play a ball is mostly pleasant and very occasionally infuriating. While by no means a long game, the ideas feel a bit stretched thin by the end of the two playthroughs. Some alternative levels could easily have replaced the standard difficulty ones, trimming the second playthrough down to smaller set of bonus levels.
It's just a really chill side-scrolling platformer with some minor puzzle mechanics that get progressively and comfortably more difficult over the course of the game. The ambient soundtrack/noise is incredibly relaxing. Nothing overly complicated here, just really fun game.
just not particularly enjoyable - fairly basic puzzles
