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.
This game is the perfect length, and is thoroughly entertaining throughout.
Gives off some lovely carefree vibes, while simultaneously portraying the topic of environmental exploitation in one of the most memorable ways I've experienced. On top of that, I love the bouncy physics that gives the platforming a natural feel without coming off as slippery. There might not be much content in a traditional game sense, but it really packs in a good amount of cute and clever moments within the short playtime I had.
ya i like this game get if if it's on sale it's short sweet and cute :)nice art and fun to play w a friend the hidden collectables and easter eggs are fun adorable game <33
a night in the woods if it was good
Cute as hell! Short and sweet experience. Recommend for a good Friday night, its always on sale or free, too.
why is this game secretly about government conspiracy, capitalism, and rebelling against the system
charming as all hell, but sadly lacks any replayability aside from hidden trophies and collectables.
Really appreciate the Tomba vibes with this game. Lovely world to explore with some really fun writing. I also liked how harder content is gated via secret passages encouraging more seasoned players to go off the beaten path
I adored my time with this one, it was cute, funny and music was good. But it was too short!

Strutting around with pals, listing to some good tunes, kicking everything in sight... Sometimes that's all you need. A lovely time.
Adoro jogar com meu amorzinhoooo
Loved it so much I wrote an article on it.
It's the only article I've ended up publishing, if that says anything.

funny
best dialouge, what can i say? picked it up for like a dollar on the switch and i would have paid like $60 for this masterpiece
This game sticks around for just the right amount of time, it's cute, funny, surprisingly well made mechanics and platforming, and in general just puts a smile on my face whenever i boot it up.
Multiplayer is a bit underwhelming but still a fun hour and a half with a friend.
Well worth your time and money, if you need a 4 hour experience to just enjoy for the sake of happiness, I cant think of a better game.

Juego de puzzles/plataformeo muy simple, pero el juego te mantiene con una sonrisa en la cara practicamente todo el tiempo que juegas ya que tiene un humor muy divertido, ademas de como se mueven los PJs BUNKOOOOOOOOO Totalmente recomendado si tienes una tarde tonta sin saber que hacer.
"Quirky" game. It was fine
what a lovely game . :^)

A fun platformer with cute presentation and a surprisingly subversive subtext.
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.

Super charming and satisfying. I actually found this game by its soundtrack and after listening to the whole album like 10 times through I caved and bought it. Didn’t dissapoint
Decent cute little game. I like the artstyle and the movement is surprisingly enjoyable. The dialogue is okay but it does get a little too "lol so quirky" for me with its overly simplistic delivery and purposely incorrect grammar. The music was pretty nice as well and while the difficulty is generally nonexistant, the minigames and puzzles are still enjoyable. My only real gripe with the gameplay is that some parts of boss fights (the saws on the first boss not giving any sign that they'll pause, mr.sunshine shooting out popcorn way too fast in the final chase) could be annoying compared to the laidback nature of the rest of the game.
Art style, music, characters, humor, I love everything about this cute charming game
A really charming but really short experience.
This game has a simple premise (you're a thing with legs and feet and no arms) but it finds interesting things to do with it.
The plot is funny and the characters are pretty goofy. In this way I feel like it's like the charming Wandersong, but with different ways of interacting with the world and less puzzles.
I'd recommend this one, but be aware it's a quicky.
