The Gunk feels very inspired by ps2 era 3D platformers. In particular, this has feels very much like a Ratchet n Clank game, but with a fraction of the tools/weapons and overall much less emphasis on combat. Honestly the scifi premise and the environmental art were the main aspects driving me forward.

None of the mechanical features felt very good. The jump is ok, but they do the thing where you can only mantle on to things with the a yellow mark which feels much more out of place as a 3D platformer compared how to they do it in Uncharted. You also have to spend resources to use a dash and its a pitiful one at that. For a game all about collecting resources, you don't really have a lot of upgrades that you're excited to use it on.
