I kinda had Hell Pie on my radar, and eventually I snagged it from a Humble platformers bundle awhile ago. Kinda expected it's humor as a crutch and a game second-nothing to write home about. Come to my surprise that its actually pretty damn good. It's a weird blend between A Hat in Time & Conker's Bad Fur Day and it works.

I loved how Nate & Nugget controlled. They felt like if Hat Kid had a grappling hook at all times which made exploration really damn fun alongside collecting goodies. I liked how each world was basically a hub world with plenty to collect and explore alongside containing sub-levels that were linear-esque challenges that also contained a fair amount of goodies too. Its nothing super challenging, but when you get the hang of the grapple, its really fun to just tear through levels.

The game's visual and dialogue humor is very reminiscent of Conker's Bad Fur Day. This game is raunchy and has some gross out elements to it. That type of humor isn't for everyone obviously, I mostly chuckled at the absurdity of the whole game, with some NPCs being literal shitmunchers and the Spongebob/Ren & Stimpy-esque closeups the game threw at you when collecting ingredients.

I do wish there were more bosses, this game only has two which is a shame. Overall, I recommend checking this game out, if you can get by its visuals/humor you're in for a fun time.
