WHOA Fynn sounds JUST like Croc!
An adorable N64/PS1 homage platformer, with unique level themes and a dream-accurate presentation the whole way through. So accurate, that it also veers into nightmare territory... which often brought it creeping into an aura of horror! The music really leans into this too. It fluctuates when you enter new areas, like you're changing the RPM on a record player. It's truly unsettling and fun every time.
The gameplay was satisfying for me, even if a bit clunky and at odds with itself at times. My only real issue was dealing with depth perception for some obstacles, especially in the ending, where frequent death felt unfair. Most of the game is forgiving and pretty breezy, so it didn't feel like the game was prepared to deliver on the ending it attempted.
All in all though, this was a pleasant and concise experience! In the midst of all the massive undertakings this year (Tears of the Kingdom, Baldur's Gate 3, Starfield...) it was a welcome and refreshing addition to my list of 2023 games.
