Finally, I can review a game on here that's not Mario or Kirby.

Y'know for being an indie studio's VERY FIRST GAME, they really made something special here. Though I guess it shouldn't be too surprising considering a lot of these people worked on Sonic Mania. Penny's Big Breakaway isn't TOO too ambitious, but what it does provide is really fun. Yeah the game has got some kinks to work out, like the oodles of glitches and some aspects of the presentation not being fully polished. Oh yeah and also I noticed that this game barely has any enemies at all??? Maybe they wanted to focus more on the PURE UNFILTERED speed and platforming, but it came off as really distracting to me. I feel as though some enemy interactions could've freshened up the gameplay a little bit. But who even cares about that when Penny is this fun to control? When the visuals are as vibrant and colorful as they are? WHEN THE SOUNDTRACK IS THIS INCREDIBLE LIKE ARE YOU KIDDING ME????

Penny's Big Breakaway is a really addicting and replayable 3D platformer and I sincerely hope that we get a sequel sometime in the near future
