Cute little game. Feels too short for full price. Reminded me of Poptropica in the best ways.
Stupid but good
sometimes an oval with legs ventures forth and kicks shit for a living who cares
FUCK CAPITALISM!!!!! rlly fun
Muito divertido, nunca vi um jogo nesse estilo.
Pikuniku es un juego de plataformas y puzzles con unas plataformas y puzzles realmente sencillos pero con un arte, una historia, un humor y un mundo tan alegre que es imposible no enamorarse de él.
Way too short
cute lil game
It's a nice little relaxing game
Simple, but it works? Is I guess, the best description I've got for Pikuniku. It's not the deepest or longest puzzle platformer out there, but it never feels repetitive or becomes dull in the few hours it takes to complete. It's light and breezy entertainment.
The esoteric humour also keeps the game rolling along nicely. The antagonist has a bizarre preoccupation with corn, and you'll need to defeat a foe on the dance floor, that sort of thing. Your character has a soft penchant for mayhem and causing chaos, which adds another layer of charm, didn't experiment enough to see if any of this could be avoided.
Pikuniku uses curved-edged vector visuals as opposed to pixel art. It's a nice change-up. Guessing they might have been inspired by LocoRoco and few obscure Dreamcast titles. The worst part of the game is a Dig Dug riff that falls pretty flat and lacks a mechanic to make it unique.
Not sure if anyone will be blown away, but it's silly and has dumb jokes.
Got Pikuniku for free on the Epic Games Store. Not a bad pickup on Steam at the time of writing this, as it's 70% off.

Fofo
funny
short, easy, great music, bright and colorful artstyle.
Sometimes I felt like it was way too dead-brained but hey its still charming.
I get what it's going for but it's not my type of game. Really cute.
Game funni
A very charming and fun little adventure game. Not much in the gameplay department, but makes up for it with a very unique, casual style of writing, which makes the admittedly simple story work a lot better. A bit too short, but a good time overall
cutie game
my friend omar made fun of me while playing this game
im going to cry
im going to cry
this game was cuuuuuuuuuuute and fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun and it had lots of moneys.
I kept waiting for the “real” game to start, because it was pitched to me as one of those “I wouldn’t want to spoil what this game really is” titles in the vein of Frog Fractions or something. It’s not. What you get in the first village is more or less what you can expect the rest of it to be: a not particularly challenging platform adventurer with an ultraminimalist aesthetic and affectation you’ll either find cutesy or grating (I was somewhere in between).
I appreciate the anti-capitalist themes and some of the humor, but there wasn’t enough weight to this world or its characters to keep me invested in the mechanics, which put me off pretty early. I felt like I spent most of my time wandering around looking for objects I’d missed, hopping consequence-free (except for the consequence of missing a high jump and having to make a long walk back) from cloud to cloud around largely empty environments. Ultimately there’s not a lot of “there” there.

paying $10 for barely two hours of gameplay challenge
Super charming adventure platformer with some great humour and fun puzzles. Doesn't outstay it's welcome either. Wonderful!
If Golden Books commissioned a story about colonialism and resource-stripping from a guy who runs a Home Movies fan account on Twitter. Charming enough, but always keeps you at arms-length from the actual act of community-building.
I adored my time with this one, it was cute, funny and music was good. But it was too short!
THE BEAST
a fun time for two friends.... or lovers??? short but sweet, not groundbreaking but doesnt overstay its welcom
Nice. Cute. Very Short.
Very fun indi game
