So much of your enjoyment of this game is if you're willing to ignore how (to its credit, intentionally) disgusting it is. It's very Ren and Stimpy gross-out humor in, at least my opinion, a bad way. I was pretty willing to ignore it, even if it's very in your face at times but if you can't it will really weigh your experience down. Which is a shame, because everything else here is pretty great! Really fun movement, solid level design, and inoffensive combat that's pretty fun to demolish any enemy in your way. The movement is insanely freeing and gives you a TON of options, especially by the end of the game when you max out the skill tree. The little cherub you get "Nugget" lets you use him as a grapple hook and you can get up to 4 grapples + things like grappling straight up to gain height on top of various horns (think Hat in Time hats) that give you new abilities like gliding and sprinting. You can truly do almost anything you want if you think of it, and it's very fun to gain a ton of height or sequence break with well-timed grapples and such. The movement being as free as it is does kinda trivialize a lot of the platforming and level design though which can be seen as a negative, but it's really up to you how much you let that affect you. I found it pretty fun to create my own little objectives or limit myself to do things how they were intended to be done similar to like a Mario Odyssey. However, it's a lot more breakable and cheesable here and the intended solutions aren't quite as fun but that's also a pretty unfair standard to compare it to. I also wish there was some item that made collectables a bit more easier to find. Maybe after you beat the main game the horns that show you where teleporters and whatnot general locations are showed you the last few main collectables would have gone a long way. That or like a Spyro esque tracker where Nugget shows you the general direction of a main collectable. By the time I finished the game I was missing like less than 10 of each collectable but it just didn't feel worth following a guide to track down which exact ones I was missing.

I could see this being one of my all-time favorite Indie platformers if there were a bit more exciting and challenging platforming challenges. Even without skipping everything, it's just pretty simple (probably because they realized you can skip everything lol) and I would have loved some more interesting platforming gimmicks. There are murals you can eventually light up that give you small platforming challenge rooms, and these are pretty fun! There are just not a lot of them, and they're pretty quick. The biggest thing holding it back for me though is the general art style/humor. I think there's a select few people that this will connect with really heavily and more power to them, but for me I just actively disliked it most of the time. I never found it particularly funny and I just dreaded getting an ingredient and seeing the gross art for it. Still really fun, and I was generally having enough fun to be able to overlook that aspect but I'd be lying if it didn't hold it back for me a little bit.

Mmm pues me lo termine recien y tengo más puntos malos que buenos, esta cosa es un intento de A hat in time × Conker que intenta imitar mucho el humor y crueldad de Conker pero a mi parecer les salio mal, es un juego que es muy morboso y que aveces me dio asco el juego por como estaba hecho su mundo xd.
El combate no me parecio nada espectacular y sus boss fights no me parecieron buenas peleas por ser tan simples y sin mucha alma :/

Lo mejor de este juego fue que Nugget te daba una movilidad muy buena en los saltos y que sus niveles por lo menos se me hicieron bien hechos para poder moverte entre ellos.

This game is currently in the Humble Choice for January 2024, and this is part of my coverage of the bundle. If you are interested in the game and it's before February 6th, 2024, consider picking up the game as part of the current monthly bundle.

Hell no.

Hell Pie has you play the Demon of Bad Taste, and Satan calls you randomly and tells you to go tell the chef, he wants his pie. That act somehow has you roped into helping get the ingredients for the pie, which also involves you picking up a cherub and platforming through various levels. The game tries to be humorous while giving players large levels to explore and search out various items that act as the goal for the player.

But this humor is so bad, you’ve already seen a demon’s butt, but that’s hardly the worst. There are so many cringe-worthy and depressing jokes. This game isn’t funny if you’re older than a teenager and probably not even that funny for them either. Yet it is the type of humor constantly on display. The levels too aren’t that exciting and even when they are, it’s just crass humor at best.

Pick this up if you want a weaker version of A Hat in Time or Conker’s Bad Fur Day, but let me also say I’ve heard this game compared to both of those, and honestly, I’m offended, this is so much weaker it shouldn't be in the same sentence as those titles. The gameplay isn’t awful, but the writing and level design make this hard to accept. All I could think is how Demon Turf has a similar theme with a focus on Hell, but better gameplay and writing.
