✦ AI summary

The Gauntlet is praised by players as a solid, fun parkour game with well-designed mechanics and good feel that appeals to both casual players and speedrunners. However, some players report inconsistency issues with wall-running mechanics, jittery sliding on moving platforms, and awkward control interactions like needing to look off to the side to start runs. Most players seem to enjoy it as a worthwhile experience, though a few note minor design improvements could enhance the overall polish.

Generally a pretty solid experience, definitely a fun little parkour game. Nice design, fun mechanics, decent look, decent feel, well input timer. Genuinely a good grab my overall take on it is great. Played fully on Keyboard & Mouse, got to the end of the last level, didn't beat it fast enough to see for sure, 1.3 hours. (Had some great runs seemingly) Does have some minor improvements I'd like to see, hoping that they are not overlooked for the future maybe? -Starting a run by looking off to the side to hit the elevator button is annoying to say the least, maybe another way to start it? -The wall running "strips" feel very off&on, majority of the time they work but sometimes they simply don't. -Sliding on obstacles (moving platforms) feels definitely jittery. -As far as I saw, there is no way to change the controls in the game itself, hoping to change sprint to like a mouse button as an example.

The Gauntlet is fun for everyone not just speedrunners! You can take your time OR you can rush really fast! Made for speedrunners but not mandatory to go too fast 10/10

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
