Disrupt yourTranscend the material realm and assume your true form as Spinch, a hyper-agile organism consumed by the quest to rescue a litter of its missing offspring. Enter into a world thick with bubbling psychedelia, swelling with an endless population of misshapen and malformed enemies. Disrupt your psychic architecture and be absorbed into the world, teeming with multiple pathways, luminous levels, and complex obstacles.

    Our hero Spinch can dash, dodge, jump off walls, and shoot his own children as ammunition. Platform your way through side-scrolling levels collecting items to give you the upperhand while searching for your missing babies. Be on the lookout for your cousin - he's babysitting some of your baby cousins, but he's a little weird. Bringing back old school difficulty, Spinch will have you replaying sections until you master your timing and reflexes. The ramping difficulty will see Spinch swim through experiment water tanks, chased by hordes of weird creatures, and traverse backward and inverted environments. With only a ticking clock and quick restarts - no lives or game overs here - the game is welcoming to players of all experiences, but a formidable challenge to a speedrunner.    … Expand

    Most appealing aspect of Spinch is its incredible psychedelic platforming. Platformer full of colors and incredible colors with a really interesting style. If you prefer visuals over gameplay, you should not look over Spinch.

    Spinch is a fun game, that makes you interested with its aesthetics and keeps you with its gameplay. It can be frustrating at times, so make sure you’re up for a challenge in the final stages.

    Spinch is an overwhelming 2D platformer in its audiovisuals that bets on trial-error mechanics, sometimes a bit much. However, its gameplay is rewarding and challenging, powered by a unique art design.

It kinda feels "cheap" sometimes, maybe it's because there aren't many sounds assigned to certain actions, maybe it's because it's not very polished and it feels "in the works". I didn't love it.… Expand
