I've lost hearing in my right ear (hopefully temporarily) and I couldn't get a doctors apointment until June 13th (a month from when I wrote this) so I'm currently playing shorter games where sound doesn't really matter so much (in a sense that there's no real plot or voiced dialogue)

This is a pretty simple precision platformer with unlimited lives, but it never gets as difficult as other games of this type (I still died a fair amount towards the end, but it wasn't in a "I want to throw my controller out the window" kind of way) It's also suprisingly funny.

I feel like with games like this, people will just automatically ignore it since it's cheap and was originally a mobile game, but mobile games aren't inherently bad once ported to systems with actual buttons instead of touch screen controls.

It's pretty short too, depending on how bad you are at platformers, but it goes on sale for less than £2 all the time.

A great 'palate cleanser' type of indie platformer game that features basic (but precise) controls and a simple level design that only escalates in difficulty in a few levels towards the end of the game.

Dadish is a fairly simple platformer but does provide a good time and for the low price of admission (it can be bought for under a dollar when the game is on sale), you really can't go wrong with this game if you are into side-scrolling platforming games. The game takes inspiration from Mario games in terms of looks/feel but does feature a double jump mechanic which is fun to use in order to adjust jumps between platforms and obstacles.

Adorable.

This game isn't deep or complicated.

Just a good time.

I loved this game! The platforming in the final world is genuinely hard and builds up well, the dialogue is very funny and so charming. The music and art in this game is really nice, and I love the way Dadish and his children fly off at the end of every level. Also, the possum was genuinely hilarious and a great addition.

The enemy types were interesting but I was waiting for another one to be introduced, and the final boss was mega ugly. The bosses in general are the worst part about this game: either incredibly easy or annoyingly finicky, and they're all essentially the same. I liked this game a lot though, and it's completely free! I'm definitely playing Dadish 2! 😊

Where it Shines:
Cuteness - 7/10
Humour - 6/10
The Good:
It's very cute, has decent jokes, and is a short playthrough. All those things work in it's favour.
The Bad:
It's not a bad game, it doesn't overstay it's welcome, and for a game made by one duded, it's quite good. But if you're expecting GOTY material from this, you're looking in the wrong place. The platforming is fine, not too hard or difficult, but it can be very basic at times. Considering the whole game is platforming, it really should be shining rather than just "okay".
Summary:
If you manage your expectations and just want a quick game to try that's clearly got a lot love behind it, Dadish may be for you. But you're not missing out on anything by skipping this one.

****note on my ratings:

A fun little platformer I got at a heavy discount. The controls are nice and meaty, and the stars were mostly all fun to collect. I can't say I enjoyed the mushroom levels too much, the bounces felt a bit too unpredictable for my taste.
One thing that particularly amused me about this game was how much the creator blantantly, yet lovingly, incorporated from other games. Yes, I noticed the Kirby's Adventure clouds in the background, and the Mario sound effects, and what I'm sure were instruments from the DKC games in the background of the mountain levels. Overall it creates a charming little package, though it isn't one I think is worth the full $10 asking price on the Switch. Get it on sale and it makes a fine way to whittle away an afternoon.

Gets pretty hard pretty fast but not ridiculously hard. Most deaths do feel like they're on me, but there are some instances where I felt like it was the game's fault. Confusing hitboxes, non-existent attack patterns of a certain boss, and the high speeds of the mushroom levels felt unfair -- less like a platform game and more like lucky draw. But a very cute game with good music and fun platforming.

Edit: I'm deciding to put this game away for now on the basis that break is over soon and I'm going to be busy again, so instead of dedicating lots of time to one game that I pretty much get the gist of, I'm gonna spend that time checking out new games. I just don't have time for super hard precision platformers rn. Shelved at level 5-1.

Dadish is a cute platformer about a radish who needs to rescue his many escaped radish children from danger. And much like its simple lot, the gameplay is also very simple. You can double jump. That's it. Pushing boxes and switches while avoiding obstacles is all there is to the game. While the game introduces a suprising amount of challenge in its later levels, if you are expecting anything other than a casual, but tight platforming experience, this is not it. That said, the game is a lot of fun. Every level ends with a dad joke or quip from Dadish's kids, which always made me chuckle. While every one of these is unique, I wish there were more variety in enemy and level designs to break up the monotony of the stages. Contributing to the repetitiveness, the music stays mostly one-note for each world, and I ended up muting the game to listen to something else as I played it. A hidden collectible star serves as a harder objective in every level, but fails to have any purpose for the end of the game. Additionally, a world map allows you to retread old levels, but there is no world select, so you must manually move between the 50 levels in the game. Dadish is a silly platformer that scratched an itch for something new to play. Come in expecting a solid platformer with some funny dialogue and you'll come away having a good time.
