Great music, great puzzles, but above all, a fascinating way of telling a story, and a great story at that. Definitely give this one a try!

An excellent Adventure game in the spirit of the old Monkey Island games in terms of its humor and style, but it reminds me most of Grim Fandango. The character designs were actually taken from African masks (like how Grim Fandango is a play on the Day of the Dead in Mexico). On that note, the art style is absolutely top notch, just unbelievably beautiful to look at. The music is great, and the puzzles are generally logical. Only twice did I have to look something up on line, and only one of those I felt was totally out of left field, so, in general, the puzzling is kind of hard but usually logical. Great game, I can NOT wait till Chapter 2. Buy it now!

This game has the difficulty of Super Meat Boy, but doesn't have its charm. The music and the graphics are only ok, which, when your trying again and again to get it right, it gets really frustrating, really fast.

A very solid, metrodvania style game with great humor. Definitely give this game a chance.

Certainly a cute game, albeit a little short (no more than a few hours). The mechanic of being able to switch plates adds an interesting element to the puzzle gameplay. Also, the cutscenes are very well done.

Colorful graphics, and interesting gameplay. You 'hop' the whole game, which makes it certainly a very unique platformer. If you simply played through, this game wouldn't take more than a few hours, but you'd be missing the point. The levels, in general, are easy, but each level has three challenges (collect gems, basically this games coins), find 1 Axolotl, and finish the level under a certain amount of 'hops'. Each one is generally challenging, and usually one of each of them is very difficult to downright grueling to do, but the colorful atmosphere and the playful nature of the game never really get you that angry. This is gaming frustration at its finest! If you're someone who likes challenges in a platformer, then get this.

The soundtrack is one of the best I've ever heard in a game, so if your on the fence of which version to buy, get the 7.50 one, you won't regret it. The art is great, and the puzzle mechanics are great too. The opening cutscene is a blast as well. Overall, very well done!
