Aug 30, 2020A minor disappointment that does not follow through on its ideas.

Sep 2, 2020Struggling isn't the first game whose main gimmick is a protagonist who's deliberately difficult to control. Whereas other games do this for comedy effect, though, here it only serves to frustrate. It's difficult enough in single-player, but as a co-op experience you're far more likely to want to slap your friend in the face before you'll high-five them. Success does feel like an accomplishment, but the end rarely justifies the means, making this strictly a game for masochists.

Sep 23, 2020Struggling is a valiant attempt at a difficult physics-based game that suffers from poor execution, despite some visual polish. That’s not to say that it isn’t difficult, because it is. It’s just not that fun.
