About Ynglet: Prologue
✦ AI summary
Float through a platformer with no platforms, using wall bounces and momentum to navigate handcrafted doodle-filled levels with fully customizable difficulty and dynamic music that reacts to your gameplay. Ynglet strips away traditional jumping mechanics for a fluid, physics-based movement system that feels fresh and satisfying.
Ynglet: Prologue is a short and sweet introduction - a prologue if you will - to the upcoming game, Ynglet by Nifflas!
Absolutely no platforms (which is really unusual for a platformer)!
Fluid Difficulty
Find the level of challenge that suits you with granular difficulty settings. The ability to set quick respawn points at any time means repeating frustrating sections is never required.
Feel Good
Dash into walls that reflect you. It feels really good and looks awesome!
Did I mention there are no platforms?
Reactive Soundscape
A highly reactive and dynamic soundtrack thanks to Ynglet's custom and needlessly complicated music software.
Doodles for days
The hand-drawn art style takes a fresh ‘illustrated’ approach, reminiscent of expressive doodles come to life. There’s lots of unusual creatures doing their own thing, making the world feel alive.
I have made a lot of other games before like Knytt, Uurnog, and Affordable Space Adventures but I really hope you will like this game too!" / Nifflas

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
"Ynglet: Prologue" is not a game. It's an advertisement for a product called "Ynglet". Ynglet is erroneously described as a platformer, but it's a very mediocre hand drawn 2D "movement" game, not unlike Sparkle except without combat, with some puzzles, and an insult from the developer to all PC gamers as he demands you play his game with a console peasant's childrens toy gamepad instead of KB+M. But this isn't completely relevant because this is not Ynglet, it's just an advertisment for it, so it's not correct to try to review that completely distinct product. We must instead review this for what it is... an advertisement. If you enjoy advertisements, you can consume them for free on the web or on Youtube without needing to add them to your game library, download them, and then launch the advertising. It's impossible in a general sense to recommend people should do that over playing real, full games on Steam, and that applies here with "Ynglet: Prologue" too. The purpose of this advertisement is to get you to fork over a whopping $8 USD for the full game, and I don't recommend you do that either. This is only free in the same way that adverts on Youtube and banner ads in …1 found this helpful
I found this game really fun. The music fits well into the game and it flows so nicely. My main issue with it was that it was so short (because it's the demo). The game is just so surreal and just feels so nice to play at first I almost did not try it because it was not on keyboard but the game would not feel right if it was. I would recommend playing the demo of this if you have like 30 minutes. (I am thinking of picking up the full game)1 found this helpful
This was really cool!! Serene soundscape and very fluid in more ways than one, I'll check out the full thing eventually

Игра 'Ynglet: Prologue' - это приятное и короткое погружение в необычный платформерный мир, где игрок управляет маленьким существом, перемещающимся по динамичным линиям, которые формируют ландшафт. Механика передвижения ощущается свежо и интуитивно, требуя от игрока ловкости и умения читать визуальные подсказки. Визуальный минимализм с яркими цветовыми акцентами создает запоминающуюся атмосферу, а медитативный саундтрек прекрасно ее дополняет. Prologue демонстрирует потенциал основной игры, заставляя с нетерпением ждать ее релиза. Управление отзывчивое, что позволяет быстро освоить систему передвижения. Некоторые уровни могут показаться немного сложными поначалу, но после освоения базовых механик, прохождение приносит большое удовольствие. "Ynglet: Prologue" определенно стоит того, чтобы уделить ей время, особенно если вы ищете что-то новое и нестандартное в жанре платформеров. Это отличный пример того, как оригинальная идея может быть реализована с любовью и вниманием к деталям. Рекомендую к ознакомлению.
hell yes. this rocks, can't wait to play the main game
