An adventure game with a focus on puzzles and use of various Zelda-inspired items that you acquire throughout the game. The level design is built around these well, though I kind of wish the green cape was introduced earlier instead of the bombs, because it could have been used for more interesting platforming. The boss fights are a bit meh, aside from the fish boss which I liked a lot.
With the translation barrier the hub area is a bit of a cryptic waste of time, but the levels are all solid enough that I don't really mind.

As the name suggests, it's simple and to the point, but nicely designed and appealing enough to be worth your time.

A solid adventure game with a significant focus on traps. The highlights for me include some of the traps, especially in stage 3, and the bosses, especially the lengthy final boss.
My main gripes are with the platforming. I was not a fan of the way gravity flips worked in this, having a delay on activation as well as stopping you for a second while the kid turns, which makes those sections much more awkward than they need to be. Also stage 4 had some saves that were way too long and tedious. The screaming stick men only stay funny for so long.
Overall an enjoyable experience, would recommend.

For how old it is, you definitely have to admire the variety on display. However, it hardly matters when almost nothing in the game is fun. I don't think I ever went more than two screens without something massively pissing me off.
The bosses in particular are terrible. Most are forgettable mash shoot to win affairs. The mole boss is interesting in concept, but in practice you are best off finding a convenient camping spot and killing him slowly than trying to figure out something complicated. The worst offenders are the Mario boss and the final boss. The latter in particular is baffling in its incompetence. The bouncing balls are subject to multiple fun glitches sure to cause lots of fair deaths.
