Wow! Another indie 2d platformer.

The real trick is to make something people want to play. 2D platformers are the indie game. You ask any rando gamer what indie games are and I bet they'll respond with 2d platformer.

But this 2D platformer has an interesting plot and characters.

In fairness, this game uses fabulous pixel art! Hardly any games do that.

The only way it could be better is if it was hand drawn!

Sounds like dude's just incredibly salty about this video.

Both games feature a magnet as the main character. Took me a little bit of watching to realise that he was showing footage of his game and not Mind Over Magnet
