The premise is as simple as ever: beat the linear obstacle course in front of you and keep climbing upward. The first minute or two are encouraging, mainly thanks to the responsive controls, which include a double jump and the ability to automatically grab onto platform edges and pull yourself up. Unfortunately, that initial promise quickly disappears once the game throws one of the worst obstacle courses at you. The first platforms are simple and straightforward, while the second challenge introduces rotating logs. The problem comes with the final two logs, which spin so quickly that overcoming them feels less like a test of platforming skill and more like a matter of luck. Making things even more frustrating, the game treats even the slightest contact with moving objects as a failure, killing you instantly. If you somehow manage to get past this section, the game once again tries to give you a false sense of fair gameplay, as the next couple of challenges are surprisingly easy. One genuinely good feature is that each challenge begins with a checkpoint, meaning you do not have to restart from the bottom every time you die. At least, that is how it is supposed to work. Unfortuna…

Another “Only Up”-type of game. As always, there will be pain, there will be tears, but you’ll still want to reach the top. The graphics don’t look that good to me yet, but it’s still playable. Hopefully, the developers can improve the visuals with brighter, more vibrant colors.

UP is a focused 3D precision platformer that takes a very simple objective and turns it into a demanding test of movement, timing, and persistence. Developed by Silvain and published by Ssyphus Games, it revolves around climbing steadily upward through an obstacle-filled environment where every successful jump brings you closer to the summit. There is little need for complicated storytelling or extensive progression systems because the challenge of reaching higher ground is the main attraction. It is easy to understand within minutes, but completing the climb requires far more patience than the straightforward premise initially suggests. Movement sits at the heart of the experience. Players must navigate platforms, narrow surfaces, gaps, and increasingly troublesome obstacles while carefully judging distance and momentum. Individual jumps can appear simple until the consequences of missing become apparent. Falling can cost meaningful progress, creating tension even during seemingly ordinary sections. This makes concentration important because becoming impatient or overconfident can quickly undo several successful maneuvers. The controls and mechanics are approachable enough for ne…
