______________________________________________________________________________________________________

  • Have you ever desired to feel the pain of failure, but the games you've played were just too slow and tedious?
  • Have you ever wished a game existed where not only a precision platformer was advertised, but you could move with speed and agility?
  • What if this game also included problem solving, maybe even a point and click component?


Well, Sally Forth Studios is here to give you Tin Tandem – your next adventure of frustration and gratification!



Conquer the treacherous tower with the two playable characters – Axle & Arx.

AXLEAxle is a tough, bouncy ball of titanium that uses torque to propel himself to extreme speeds and can jump twice, once from the ground and again in the air to climb to the top and beyond.

ARXArx is the speedy, jet-powered drone that you will direct with your mouse and activate machines through its zapper to aid Axle in his ascent.

  • Progress is autosaved while Axle is resting on a platform.
  • An array of achievements and leader boards.
  • Cloud saves are available.
  • Language Support.


Take the reins and face the pains. Play Tin Tandem now!

Tin Tandem is one of literally thousands of retro 2D platformers infesting Steam and lowering the average quality of all video games everywhere... and I'm not kidding. Searching for "platformers" on the Steam store page yields over 17,000 results! Is this one of the best of those? Absolutely not. I'm wondering if this was a student homework assignment or some kind of weekend project... a very weak "control two characters and make your own platforms" gimmicked platformer with bad art, worse controls, and no compelling reason for anyone to play it, as the SteamDB data shows. Platforming is an old, mostly dead genre, and this lacklustre experience, while it doesn't have an upfront cost, isn't saving the genre... it's no surprise this failed to capture any attention from gamers in the era of immersive 3D gaming. In terms of visuals, this features really godawful MS-Paint tier "art" instead of real graphics. It's hard to say if this was because the developer didn't have the skill to do the job of creating 3D visuals, or couldn't afford to hire someone who does, but it also doesn't matter. What matters is that this looks much worse than most other games because of that decision, …

Игра Tin Tandem — это очаровательное и немного меланхоличное приключение, которое с первых минут окутывает своей атмосферой. В роли двух крошечных роботов, путешествующих по постапокалиптическому миру, игроку предстоит решать несложные, но заставляющие задуматься головоломки, основанные на координации действий и взаимодействии. Управление двумя персонажами одновременно может показаться непростым, но именно в этом и заключается изюминка игры, побуждающая к поиску нестандартных решений и терпению. Визуальный стиль игры заслуживает отдельной похвалы: он прост, но выразителен, а музыкальное сопровождение идеально дополняет общую картину, создавая ощущение уязвимости и надежды одновременно. Tin Tandem — это не просто игра, а скорее интерактивная история о дружбе, взаимовыручке и поиске смысла в разрушенном мире. Она оставит после себя приятное послевкусие и желание вернуться к этим милым героям снова.

[h1]Before I played Tin Tandem, I had a small pp, no friends, no gf, depression, and no life. These things havent changed, but the game is pretty good[/h1]

Games like Undertale that remember what you did

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

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.
