If I were to say one thing about this game, it would be that it's a very cute 2-3 hour romp with some fun puzzles and very challenging gameplay, no doubt due to the controls, but you get used to it If I were to say say two things, it'd be that and Scout's Demo Domination Line 06: "Depth perception pal, look into it."

[@PineconeMuncher]

the controls are perfectly fine the challenge comes from the.. well the challenge

[@TheRedInkling]

@@PineconeMuncher what i meant by that is like it’s a bit hard to get used to the 3D. I played Celeste for 100+ hours, got 201 berries, and know each area very well. adjusting to 3D, with the new mechanics and physics, was a bit tricky to get used to, at least for me, and it’s definitely not helped by the lack of depth perception. but again, you get used to it.
