I almost snapped my switch in half on world 4. It's not challenging, it's just unnecessarily hard.
Visually Spinch is awesome. The controls were alright and Worlds 1-3 were fun...
World 4 is HOT ASS, terrible level design, the worst water physics I've ever experienced.

Unfair and full of glitches. I was at the end of the last level and died but instead of respawning me it decided to just play the death sound infinitely. Fuck Spinch and that stupid ass rainbow monkey.
There are many, many wonderful things about old school level design. Unfairness was not one of them, and boy oh boy does this game have that in droves. Couple that with a grating soundtrack and some bad glitches, and you end up with a mess. The game's only saving grace is the aesthetic, which is wonderful. It's unfortunate that most of the development time was dedicated to that instead of literally everything else.
A pretty good, if standard platformer. Aesthetically and musically it is phenomenal, and it does explore some lesser seen mechanics in platformers, including a fairly interesting boss fight mechanic based around the collectibles in the game
The main reason I abandoned it is due to a pretty steep difficulty spike in some of the water levels, and I grew tired of dying and being sent way back over and over. If difficulty was tweaked, or there were some easy skippable segments, I definitely would have finished it, but that specific level made me lose interest. Definitely play it if you can get access to it for free or cheap, and listen to the OST!

Feels good to control, all the levels past world one are miserable though.
I'd love to hear what the level designer of this game likes about platforming games cause these levels goes against anything I find fun.
Every new gimmick introduced per world just slows the game down and forces you to wait.

An ok meatboy-esque 2d platformer. I got to the final world before a combination of crappy level design and bugs finally made me quit
I love the art styles and that's about it. Everything else is just really shitty, the controls feel stiff and slippery at the same time, I know that's a contradiction but if you played it you'd know what I mean
