    Ayo the clown is a cute whimsical platformer that is definitely worth playing!

    Just bought it today. A pretty enjoyable 2d platform game with one of the best artstyle in any Indie game I've play. I really like the charecter and level design. The music is also really good. The only minor problem that I had so far are the enemy and the boss being to simple. But overall a very good game and I really recommend it.

    Ayo the Clown is a refreshing take on a classic genre. It doesn't break the mold but it doesn't need to in order to provide a fun and playful experience.

    However, this fun and playful experience is not without a few rough edges like a small hit box when jumping onto enemies, occasionally getting caught on the corner of a platform, and loose controls. I would still encourage 2D    Ayo the Clown is a refreshing take on a classic genre. It doesn't break the mold but it doesn't need to in order to provide a fun and playful experience.

    I would still encourage 2D platformer fans of all ages to pick up this game and help Ayo the Clown find his lost doggo. You won't regret it!    … Expand

    While Ayo's level design and presentation of mechanics are indeed competent, and its visual world looks quite attractive, the game's controls fall way behind expectations. Due to a poor execution, it's often quite difficult for the game to translate player's inputs into actions, and as such it's difficult to recommend Ayo the Clown to a child who's just discovering video games.

    Ayo the Clown is visually adorable and full of so much charm that you can’t help but love the little guy and the world that Cloud M1 has created. I am looking forward to what else they can create; I wonder if Ayo the Clown 2 could be on the horizon? With a little polishing of controls, character models and the town function, who knows what heights Ayo could float to.

    A typical, but well made 2D platformer with beautiful graphics that reminded us of games from the Yoshi and Donkey Kong Country series.
