i have an obsession with flywrench, ill admit. i love its tough as nails, yet really satisfying thread-the-needle gameplay, i adore its banger drum and bass electronic soundtrack, i really enjoy the minimalist, yet striking art style that really doesnt look like anything else. (aside from maybe nidhogg, messhof's other, more well known game) i find myself coming back to flywrench on a constant basis, just booting it up to run through some levels every so often. its a really satisfying game to get good at, and has a really high skill ceiling for the insane stuff you can pull off, as shown in the speedruns. admittedly, im kind of a sucker for games with really weird concepts or controls, and i know that isnt for everyone. not only that, but i do recall the last couple levels to be a little bit too much at times, i think they went a little overboard with the precision required at the sun. that being said, if you're down to try out an experimental platformer, check out flywrench, you wont regret it
Probably the most fun you can have while giving yourself a migraine. Mechanically beautiful; aesthetically criminal.
Really difficult. But really satisfying to master. Kind of the perfect game. There is so much nuance with how you control the player. So many micro adjustments, and optimizations. You really get to master each level by the time you can beat them.
Flywrench is a precision 2D flight game with a minimalist but still very stylish presentation. While the levels are very satisfying to beat, the real challenge comes from time trials. I don't enjoy speedrunning so I won't be grinding out the extra challenges, but I did enjoy playing through the story mode. My only complaint is that several times I got stuck on flat walls instead of bouncing off, but that was minor enough to ignore.
An absolute banger that should not be overlooked. Incredible soundtrack and kinetic platforming that really pushes you through some really fun levels. At 2 hours and $7, it’s respects both your time and your wallet, and I hope more people check it out
It feels like another game once you reach mercury. Sun was a nice way to end it.
