A perfect platformer, making great use of some fantastic VR gimmicks. It's a lot of fun, with a variety of creative and beautiful levels and powerups for you, the floating buddy hanging with Astro through the game. I still don't love that Astro Bot and its little pals feel more like a stand-in tech demo character design aesthetic, but much like in Astro's Playroom for ps5, they do quite a bit to try to inject some personality in him and some great cartoony personality into the bosses, especially. The music is also fantastic. It does get a bit repetitive, but by breaking up levels between worlds into different themes, you're typically not in them for too long. Plus the core gameplay and "hidden object" mechanics are a neat way to really make you observe your surroundings. The difficulty is also paced wonderfully, mostly easy but with a few segments that do pose a challenge. And I love the crane game. This is the most I've wanted to 100 percent a platformer.
