Banger little game, gonna 100% this weekend hopefully1 found this helpful
It's good, but I don't think it's great. Which is unfortunate, because I really wish it were better. I finally got around to playing this and I'm sure there's nothing I can say here that hasn't already been said before in other critical reviews, but to sum it up: it has some annoying flaws that don't really kill the experience, but do hamper its quality. The music is great and I find the art style cute. I don't have any complaints when it comes to these. The story is fine, I didn't pick up the game for the story, after all. The controls are *slightly* slippery but not *too* slippery, which is fine for the vast majority of the game, but that makes a few specific challenges frustrating because they require dumb amounts of precision and speed (e.g: the Edge Games trinket). I did try turning down my gamepad's sensitivity, but it seems like that extra bit of momentum is inherent to the physics of the game. The difficulty is highly uneven. The game is fairly easy/normal for the most part, but then there's a few outlier parts that require countless attempts (e.g: Doing Things The Hard Way) because that's when the lack of tight controls (coupled with expected perfection from the playe…
I do recommend this game, it's short, straight to the point, charming and precise platformer depending on how you play it should take you around 2 or 3 hours to complete. It has collectables, and once you beat it you unlock a few more modes to keep playing, worth the money and time def!

I beat Path of Pain, I can do this. I beat Path of Pain, I can do this. I beat Path of Pain, I can do this. I beat Path of Pain, I can do this. I beat Path of Pain, I can do this. I beat Path of Pain, I can do this. I beat Path of Pain, I can do this. I beat Path of Pain, I can do this. I beat Path of Pain, I can do this. I beat Path of Pain, I can do this.

Beaten on steam and on mobile way back in the day. Keep thinking about it to this day over 10 years later. Absolute banger of a game and ESPECIALLY the soundtrack! Hope Terry is doing well these days!
