There are so many bright and positive things I can say about ElecHead, a tight puzzle platformer based around the mechanic of manipulating your electricity-charged head to power platforms and objects to navigate the world. Standing at a confident four hours long, it manages to pack an immense set of skills and tricks that all stem from its primary two-button control scheme. After obtaining the ability to throw your head, that's it, and it is because of this simplicity that not only do all the puzzles seem fair and within reach, but are critical to how well-designed every asset of ElecHead is. The core adventure of the titular robot won't give too much pause, it consistenly challenges the player by presenting new obstacles and ways to shake up your existing knowledge. Talking any more about the puzzles themselves would be robbing the game of its best solves, so instead I will say constantly be thinking about everything the game has told you and try everything. It was a joy to see everything ElecHead has to offer and I hope a new game or more levels will grace us in the future.
Also, the music is incredible. Put it on the maximum setting.
