This is one of those games where you need to 100% complete it to beat it but it's not super hard to do that. This game isn't very long but I still think there's maybe a bit of filler. My issue here is that there's just not interesting enough mechanics, which when you combine it with the controls and the nonexistent progression is a bummer. The mechanic of you needing to earn extra lives by competing in dumb racing minigames gets old fast. However, the spooky aesthetic can save many a game. I wouldn't have beaten it without that. Thank you Halloween.

Pretty fun 3d platformer imo. The level design manages to have both that tight feeling of more linear 3d plats and have a decent amount of exploration as the levels are designed in a way you must collect objects to unlock doors in order to explore further. You play as one of these little kids of the art, they feel somewhat weak and have a very limited moveset as the game revolves around getting timed power ups that both expand your moveset allowing you to reach other places and also utterly destroy the enemies with one-hit kill magic, its simple, but it feels really fun.

A few annoyances are the extremely hidden placement of a few late dream keys (which are obligatory to progress), a few boss battles are janky and I really wished they had kept that Tim Burton aesthetic for the whole game instead of stuff like a prehistoric and space worlds, but those are minor problems.

here's one of the tons games for the PS1 I'll suddenly remember "Wait, I own that!" and play it for 10 minutes. It's not the Mario killer, but it may just be the Bug killer, so be warned Sega

Foi meu primeiro jogo de PS1 que eu joguei. Até hoje é o único jogo original de PS1 que eu tenho.

Eu tinha um baita medo do primeiro mundo, depois o jogo fica mais suave, mas os primeiros dois mundos são verdadeiros pesadelos.

Even as a kid I remember laughing at the quote on the box that claims it's a Mario 64 killer. You can't say that when your protagonists look like that.


a bossfight dos piratas é uma das piores bossfights que eu já vi em jogos, vou ter pesadelo por alguns dias

jonesy and coconut head adventures

I loved it as a kid and scared a little ! I bought one on Ebay recently to play it again and it got lost on the way :(

I forgot to review this one it's so forgettable

This game was a lot better in my memories than it actually is. I loved it as a child. Sadly it doesn't hold up very well.
It's still very charming and I enjoyed playing through it again. The idea of exploring these different dream worlds is great and makes for a lot of variety. I also really like Nitecap and Threadbear as the villains.

However the gameplay is very lackluster compared to some other 3D platformers of the time. The hit boxes are awful and jumping doesn't feel very precise. Level design also varies a lot in quality, the underwater levels are annoying.

A fun game but ultimately just okay. Only worth playing if you grew up with it as a child.

not a mario 64 killer by far but still a charming 3d platformer. controls are a little swimmy, the vibes are strange and eerie, personally i like it

not sure what to say about this its weird controls are a little stiff... eh yeah

I think the N64 version is ok. Pretty sure this never came out on the system because cartridges were so expensive the publisher said fuck it and didn't publish a fully finished game. Video game industry is "funny" like that.

Played it with the bestie Patty, okay some levels are absolutely harsh with their key placement but otherwise it was a blast. I seriously spent like an hour trying to backtrack and find a key in the second world.

Played this on the ps1 growing up and loved every second of it, even the dodgy jumping and combat
nostalgia hits hard

Man... loved this game as a kid. I don't think I ever beat it, though, but I have very fond memories of the first few levels.

Scared the shit out of me as a kid

40 Winks has some visible love put into it. It's not the most polished or original thing in the world, but it's solid and has personality.
