    Entertaining action platforming with random levels and little diversity.

    Platformines surprises. The quick gameplay is fun, the enemies in their particular parts of the map are challenging and the open world gives you the freedom to take whatever way you want to go. Platformines is far from a perfect game, but it deserves a chance as it delivers more then you might expect.

    Platformines isn’t a bad game, it’s just a largely unpolished one. The mechanics feel either loose or under-developed, leading to a game that’s entertaining but never spectacular or truly engaging.

    Platformines is a brief, fun and fast paced experience, created with a nice pixelated style and enriched by a great soundtrack. Well, maybe too brief, given that the first run is over in less then 4 hours, and after that the only thing to do is another playthough with increased difficulty.

    I stopped getting involved in the bulk of the fighting after a only a few short hours, instead choosing to simply ran to each cannon. Then I did the five-minute puzzle bit at the end and got a ‘well done’ screen for my efforts. For all its promise, then, sadly Platformines is a deflating balloon of a game.
