✦ AI summary

Players praise the game's charm, appealing art style, and solid platforming mechanics with a good difficulty balance that's accessible yet challenging. However, critics point out that later levels become too large and empty with repetitive button collecting that serves little purpose, creating tedious exploration similar to Yooka-Laylee's design problems, while some also mention inconsistent camera and mechanics issues.

The game starts out all right, with a pleasant charm, small levels and good music. But as I progressed and the levels got larger it became clear that they became too large and very empty, at least from a Completionist perspective. Having buttons be the only collectable aside from eggs quickly became an annoying chore having to run around searching for side areas only to find 1-3 buttons tucked away. By the time I reached world 3, buttons served no purpose other than needing to collect them for the achievements and by the end of the game I had 1200 buttons with nothing to spend them on. I'd say the later parts of the game suffers from the Yooka-Laylee approach, having enormous areas that doesn't reward the player with anything worthwhile for exploring. If you have an itch for playing something similar to Banjo-Kazooie and want to listen to music that Grant Kirkhope made, then try it out. If you're like me and like to 100% complete games, then you might not enjoy this one.

Slept on the demo, but it's actually a super fun little 3D Platformer, with a good moveset, some great level designs and surprisingly challenging sections. I ended up getting 100%, took about 8 hours. Art style is nice, reminds me of Tearaway. The voice acting is a mixed bag, the writing is very generic, but a couple lines did get a chuckle out of me. Blinky is the best character, I wish he was in it more. I encountered bugs, but nothing egregious.

It's so cute and easy enough to play without getting enraged but also just difficult enough that it is a challenge. I love it and want more levels!

Incredibly inconsistent mechanics and camera, scissors has weird interactions with grapple/jump/glide.

The game is incredibly charming and family friendly. The platforming isn't too demanding and the collectibles are all somewhere close the mission path so you will collect most of them simply by walking around. It's got this unique art style that looks like a children's book come to life and i loved that.
