The movement mechanics are the best thing about this game. It honestly might be the only part that’s genuinely well designed. The levels barely feel play tested, the collectathon progression is too strict, the art is inconsistent, the writing is A Hat in Time put through Google Translate three different times, and the checkpoint mechanic is really clever but undercut by a one-hit system which doesn’t compliment the level design at all. I don’t know how to describe any of this game except that it feels like a licensed game made by an indie team. I wish there was a version of this game with actual polish.
