Great indie exploration game! The game was made with love and it shows. It is oozing with heart. Give Platy a play and be sure to step on snek!3 found this helpful
I previewed the game because I thought it would suit my niece. I was captivated & enthralled by the characters, landscapes, and original instrumental soundtrack. Check out the forest landscape & listen to the Reunion track. I recommend purchasing both. The Platy package is full of surprises. This is incredible work from an Aussie independent game developer with a passion for the unique Australian flora & fauna.2 found this helpful
The game is pretty crude in it's current state, but it's constantly updating and the developer is very devoted, active, and responsive to feedback. I'll certainly be playing again in the future to see how it has evolved over time~ Kudos as this is a solo developer.2 found this helpful
Thoughts so far as a new player: Incredibly detailed world that's really just stunning. All made with passion by just one guy. Every single asset used was created by just one person. I haven't gotten far yet but so far it's been a fairly pleasant experience. The game is regularly updated even over a year past its release. Honestly I'm pretty impressed and feel inspired to do more with my own stuff!1 found this helpful
I actually stumbled across this game on Twitch, so I was able to see live game play and ask questions before I even purchased the game. The moment I saw the little Platypus I knew this was a game I wanted to play. The scenery and music in this game are amazing. I even bought the soundtrack so that I can listen to the music while I am not playing. I would definitely recommend.
This game is great, I love all the Australian animals that interact with each other. The soundtrack is awesome it even has a didgeridoo, a truly remarkable set of tracks that compliment the game perfectly. This is not a gory killing game and would be a good choice for children wanting to experience Australian animals.
