It's even scored two perfect scores so far – one from VG247 and another from Player 2. The game is being praised for its story, which critics are describing as “hilarious and heartfelt.” Additionally, it sis also scoring high for its innovative platforming mechanics, with Screen Rant calling it “a must-play for anyone interested in what modern platformers can do.”
