Ynglet is the rare, perfectly iterative experience. The platforming adjacent gameplay is impeccably tuned to always feel good and the difficulty always perfectly balanced to offer achievable challenge. Couple this with the hypnotic art style and mesmerizing soundtrack and Ynglet becomes something special.

Yet, perhaps Ynglet’s greatest attribute is its frantic iteration on its core mechanics. Every level plays with what you assumed you could do and adds its own twist. And then, after a couple hours, it’s done, having fully investigated the ideas it was playing with.

I can offer no suggestions for improvement. I cannot recommend it enough. It is, perhaps, the one of the most surprising and delightful ways to spend five dollars.
