amazing game from start to finish, only potential flaws being the odd difficulty spike around chapter 5, plantera (WAY too much rng, only fight in the game that's like that) and a weird bug that occurs when you have the IWPO patch (that's by no means the developer's fault and isn't affecting the final score though, just something to watch out for if you plan on playing it with friends)
for what it is, it's a very refined and pleasant experience.
by the way, if you happened to play LittleBigPlanet 2 as a kid, i think you'll get quite the treat out of the sound design ;)

v1.1 is impossible, the screenshot here is v1.0. This game is only possible by changing versions at impossible segments

Quite literally one of the worst adventure games I have ever played, it took me nearly 2 years to find the strength to come back and beat it due to how horrible my first playthrough felt before quitting, and the return was not glorious at all.
Groovy has 3 main issues, it has traps at the end of the longest saves, visual challenge as a main gimmick, and terrible cycles. There is one save where you need to perform a long autoscroller on a bounce pad, which has both foreground clutter all over the screen, cycles of killer objects, traps in the middle of it, and is followed by a screen that has no save on it, falling killers as traps, a fake floor as a trap, and a spring when you jump down that you have to double jump over; this save is quite literally one of the worst things put into an adventure game.
Visual Challenges are all over this game, especially in the Cave and Ocean stages. The Ocean stage has a gimmick that literally just makes your screen blurry the longer you are underwater and is basically what I've decided to call the "Concussion" gimmick. There's also a bit of mashing in the game, such as the wizard boss as well as the snowballs in the last stage, so be prepared for that. Another cycle issue comes from the wind gimmick, you basically have a 50/50 chance for the wind to go the way you need it at the start of a save, so you're just going to be resetting to make it happen faster or you'll need to wait a while just for the next wind direction change.
I try my best to give games like this a chance, but frankly it was not worth it. I would not recommend this game at all, it's terrible and a monument to bad design.

4 stage needle game with a few vines from time to time.
It's enjoyable and adds a chill atmosphere. Last stage is a bit more difficult to look at visually.
The difficulty curve progresses nicely with a few spikes in a few shorter saves.
There seems to be a frame perfect glitch due to save blockers nature.
If you save as you die on a spike near a save point you are spawned in the 0,0 location for some reason.
It's possible that this leads to softlocks, or a lucky shortcut in my case.

1 screen trigger trap game, one is more precise than the rest, but saves are all pretty short.
