    Adventures of Pip's unique mechanic makes it stand out from the rest of the platformers I've played; the game makes wonderful use of the mechanic. Challenging enough to not make it a memory platformer but also not dull, this game is sure to charm any fans of the genre.

    Adventures of Pip is a nice tribute to the classic 2D pixel art platformer even though it lacks some depth.

    A solid platformer, with interesting mechanics and loads of charm. Adventures of Pip is a fantastic addition to a crowded genre.

    Adventures of Pip has plenty to offer in terms of action, as in addition to completing each level, players can rescue three of the scattered townsfolk within each stage. The game’s pixel currency can also be used to buy helpful items and upgrades to aid Pip in his journey, and each boss battle bestows a health increase upon victory.

    Adventures of Pip is a game that brings back the true 16-bit experience, and that's all we need. It's not particularly original, but it does deliver a gameplay some of us really miss.

    Adventures of Pip is a good platformer in every sense of the phrase. It has a nostalgic, yet beautiful art style, fun concept, and gameplay that even seasoned platforming fans will absolutely adore. However, Pip has not much else beneath the surface.

    A nice puzzle game, with some interesting level design and a cute concept. It lacks a bit of personality and it gets really fun only in the final world.

    Adventures of Pip is an inoffensive platformer that doesn't do a whole lot wrong, but it won't stand out in your mind a few days after beating it.

    Definitely worth the time to play it, but probably only once.

    Adventures of Pip is a solid platformer with a clever little gameplay mechanic, but ultimately doesn't do all that much with it. That being said, away from the mechanics, it was also good to see one of these retro-themed platformers do something more with the art style than simply have it as window-dressing. Adventures of Pip actually turns pixels into part of the gameplay, and that's neat.

The ideas the game had were lovely, though, they never reach their full potential and the game loses its charm after the second world. I did play through the whole game and I think it's really good. But it just lacks something to really make it stand out.… Full Review »

In the forth boss there is no music it was like they forgot to put it in, all the other bosses have music but not this one. In the end it was a good game but after world 3 felt lazily put together.… Full Review »
