Blanc? More like Janc.

I really wanted to like this but despite the inherent cuteness and nice music, the gameplay makes it a chore at even just 3 hours in length.

Platforming and movement just doesn't feel good, especially if you're playing solo as you'll probably end up constantly confused about which side of the controller is piloting which character.

The game isn't hard but some parts could've used better signposting. It doesn't help that I had to reload several sections due to glitches - either an event not triggering or my character straight-up disappearing off the map. In one case I reloaded and the game skipped a puzzle lmao.

Checkpointing is also really poor - I reloaded a level and had to play through a whole 10 minutes again.

Hated the part with the ducks - it went on way too long. Enjoyed this way more in the early going when it was just a simple traversal game. Also the fake-out peril moments did nothing for me.

Throw in not-great controls and an awkward camera and this just feels hugely undercooked. Shame.
