Jun 20, 2019My Friend Pedro's two halves of the banana reveal the perilous balancing act of game design. The first half is a stellar example of how to build an action game, of how to engender a sense of creativity through the player's toolset, and how to bake seamless flow into complex and challenging environments. The second half isn't quite the opposite of that, but it tries much too hard to be clever, with humour that's less goofy and more edgy, and level design that's too exacting in its structure.

Jun 20, 2019My Friend Pedro is one of the most exciting and well-executed Switch indies released to date, and easily one of the strongest options in 2019 so far. It leaves the first impression of a fun game that doesn't require a whole lot of thought, but the deeper you go the more it establishes itself as a standout.

Jun 20, 2019My Friend Pedro is set in a world where the amazing moments have all be set up ahead of time, and it’s your job to follow the lead of the developer during your first pass, and then see how you can improve it as you repeat each level time and again. And the shooting is stylish, and rewarding, enough that I want to do just that.
