I've only played a few hours so far.
Whem this game was announced in the Nintendo Indies direct, I was intrigued. I'm not exactly convinced by the main character's design, especially in the artworks, but in-game, Penny is charming and controls well.

The level design so far blends platforming sections with wider areas you can speed through. It's up to you whether you want to chain tricks to go as fast as you can or take it a little bit slower to explore more and find secrets, even though it feels like the game is mainly made for the first reason. It is extremely satisfying to keep your momentum and breeze through the levels if you've mastered the movement.

One thing that still trips me up sometimes, though, is you have no control of the camera. Sometimes, I want to adjust the angle mid-jump to see a secret area better, but the right stick is used to throw your yo-yo and I end up falling to my death.

It is a lot of fun to play, though, and I'm curious to see what the gane still has to throw at me in the coming levels.
