    The game is clever and has potential but the controls are so sloppy that they render it almost unplayable.

    I really enjoyed this game. The puzzles were fun and understandable. I’ve played through twice and I believe I will play through again.

    The design is sloppy and hard to discern, sections of the level have no actual purpose. The jokes are stale. The economy of collectibles doesn't make sense. And there's not enough information to help you solve problems without just follow the instructions provided by the hints. There is barely any story to make you invest. I've given this game a chance multiple times, and it does not pay off.

    The controls are rather horrendous just in general gameplay, but if you manage to slog through long enough to meet a certain projectile I'm sure you'd discover they're even worse. (Sorry, don't want to include spoilers so I need to be vague.)

    Worse, though, is that the checklist for the collectables appears randomly, there's no way to turn off hints for the main mission and there is no warning before you're booted to the next Chapter.

    If you want to go back and get missed items you'll be rewarded with list progress.    … Expand

    Flipping Death is a truly unique experience. Boasting beautiful art design, stellar voice work and gameplay like no other, it's a game that will have you in fits of laughter. If only it lasted just a bit longer.

    Flipping Death is an absurdly funny adventure, which doesn't offer a big challenge, but its charm compensates for that.

    Everything about the game is a bright shining star. The story and character design, the voice talent, music and art design. If I was going to compare it to something, which I'm going to, I'd say it's on par with that of a Tim Schaffer game. This is only a good thing. Flipping Death is a fun tale with a mostly laid-back gameplay style, possibly just a tiny bit too short. Another chapter or two certainly wouldn't be a hindrance, but still, the replayability is there with the challenges in each.
