Showdown is a short, fairly easy 50-floor game that takes place in a reduced play area. 1 screen = 1 save, and your progress is saved automatically when you reach a new screen. Like I Wanna be the GreeeeN by the same author, many of the screens employ a gimmick. Just to name a few, you will see spikes along the outer walls that track and shoot at you, a giant apple that chases when you look away, and spikes with a thwomp mechanic(Mario influence noted). This makes the game feel nice and fresh throughout, as you're never doing the same thing over and over. There are also 2 bosses, which are both kinda easy, but the second one is a lot more satisfying that the first.
This game has a higher graphical production value than the other two P games, partially aided by the reduced play area, which lends itself better to the short-form gimmick-based platforming P is known for. This is framed in what looks like an etch-a-sketch, which, alongside the lullaby style music, hearkens back to a sense of child-like wonder.
Overall, I think this game improves on the formula of GreeeeN, and I would suggest Showdown in place of it. The game is enjoyable throughout for beginners and even somewhat experienced players (not that I would know. Kappa), with a small lull which is the first boss.

A small, charming 50 floor game. There's a sort-of-Game&Watch aesthetic going on here, and the music is sweet and calming. Each screen is pretty short, so it's a nice game to just pick up and play. Excellent introductory platforming and gimmicks for beginners.
