    Ayo the clown,
    no clowning around
    Ayo the clown is a nearly 5 hour long 2d platformer where you play as ayo the clown, someone snatched your pup up and you have to rescue them… Youll go across 8 different worlds with 8 different themes.. at first it seems like a simple easy kids game.. and there are even difficulty settings to give you more checkpoints, youll simply be jumpingaround,    Ayo the clown,

    Ayo the clown is a nearly 5 hour long 2d platformer where you play as ayo the clown, someone snatched your pup up and you have to rescue them…
    Youll go across 8 different worlds with 8 different themes.. at first it seems like a simple easy kids game.. and there are even difficulty settings to give you more checkpoints, youll simply be jumpingaround, collecting gems, and dealing withenemeis, hopping on their heads or smacking them with balloon swords, but as the game goes on youll unlock new abilities, eventually floating with a balloon to reach higher places, the game does get more and more challenging, but its never an annoying challenge.. leaving ayo the clown to be more than just osme generic platformer, it feels and sounds like a Mario meets littlebigplanet game, the care andpolish here is way more than I expected it to be, and again, with the new themes they do more than just change skins, each worlds levels feel unique to that world, a new gimmick to deal with.. and each world does end in a pretty basic, cheap at times but super beatable boss battle… with the gems you collect youre able to upgrade your chratcer, like having a larger balloon to float with, or more hearts,
    My biggest issue with ayo the clown though,, is that for one it’s a clown.. clowns are just weird, but for 2 osme mechanics here just feel awkward and never feel like they want to work right, such as sliding, or wall jumping.. tankfully these things are never needed during a boss battle, but yoll rarely be able to just flow through a section, having to retry the slide or wall jump, practically every time..
    Overall though Ayo the Clown was a pleasant surprise, this is a far better game than it has any right to be..
    I give Ayo the clown

    If you’re desperate for a platformer, you might find some redeeming qualities here. Overall, the game took me under 5 hours to beat, but completionists might need an extra few hours. This game could have been something exceptional, and hopefully, the devs take this criticism as an opportunity to add more polish to the game with future updates.
