    The amount of love and care that went into developing BZZZT really shows thanks to its awesome world and fine-tuned stage designs.

    BZZZT might not be a game that breaks the platforming mould, but it's a hell of a good time with tight controls and varied stages.

    Bzzzt is a solid bite-sized action platformer that is elevated thanks to its incredible pixel art and music. The generic story won't be the reason why anyone plays it and might make the game forgettable, but the gameplay and challenge leave a lingering impression. For its price, there is no going wrong with it, and fans of the genre will be engaged by its tight mechanics.
