A silly and humourous game where you ride a shopping cart with a goat. The premise and gimmick is that you are both screaming while in the cart and this is helps you move and maneuver around. So basically the whole game is filled with shrieking and screaming, which can get annoying after a long time of playing for some after the novelty wears off. But it is still quite funny for the most part. There are plenty of stages and obstacles to go through where you earn stars depending on the course, whether it be on speed or collecting objects etc. Some replayability along with it because of the 3 star rating system for the levels so at times you may come back to gain all 3 within the levels that was unable to achieve prior. The difficulty of the game is also good with the stages becoming more elaborate and complicated as it progress. More various and difficult obstacles that come up. Moving around in the cart is also quite fun as you jump over gaps, drift and zig zag around. There are also collectables to be had, for example you can gain headwear that can be equipped as you pass through levels and gain them, which is neat. Along with the singleplayer mode, there is also a co op mode as well as a party pvp mode where you can vs other friends in various events. So these do add some extra element of fun where you can play this rowdy game with others.

Despite my positive recommendation, I have one major complaint about this game: your avatar is a square that rolls to move.

Hrm… a SQUARE that ROLLS… does anyone else see the problem with the physics of this?

So if you want to move your square just a little bit, you are out of luck because the square will roll back to where you started or will roll further forward than you want if you hit a certain threshold. If your square is tilted in air, you could land on your corner and move into danger. If you land on the edge of a ledge, even if you are flat, if your center of mass is not on the ledge, you can roll off. You can wall cling, but only if one of the sides of your square completely touches the wall, so again, if your square is tilted and you hit the wall with a corner, this can mess you up. I can’t tell you how many times I got fracked by this baffling mechanic. In my humble opinion, it doesn’t make the game any more fun or unique, the game is way too hard otherwise to warrant this extra challenge, and it actually goes against the game’s minimalist street cred (if it were me, I would have made it more like Thomas Was Alone and have the little squares just slide along instead).

I absolutely recommend this game if you like easy-to-get-into platformers, couch co-op, and/or games with subtle depth.

The most recent update as of this review added Survival mode, which is really six modes (each basically an endless mode with the goal being lasting longer than anyone else, but remaining distinct enough to be different modes). This includes a mode called Twitch, which is a Twitch integrated mode that allows the audience to pick the next obstacles the streamer faces. Survival mode(s) in general each have a scoreboard for those who like to get competitive.

There’s lots of love and effort put into this game. The breads are super adorable!While you can play the game with 2 players, it definitely gets more fun if you’ve got a full party.There are a couple of levels that could be balanced a little better. In some you can get away with camp stacking the spawners which can get quite mundane. But you’ll realize there’s a wide range of difficulty once you play the stormy levels or try to complete each level with 3 coins.The highlights for me are the boss levels. My hands got real sweaty taking them on.

This game is deceptively difficult. How can so cute be so challenging?

The gameplay feels like a high bread (ha ha!) between Moving Out and Overcooked. Finishing levels is doable first try, getting 3 stars is a lot harder on many of the levels. Storm levels - geez, those are tough!

One thing I would love to see is adjusted star level scores for additional players (3-player should have a higher score needed for 3-star than 2-player).

Overall, an adorable game with challenging gameplay that feels like it will take quite a while to actually complete. Here’s hoping there are 4-star levels when we get there.

Color Breakers is a cute and fun co-op game that feels like a mix between Overcooked and Splatoon. The best moments are definitely when you play 4 player couch co-op and you can see the chaos of trying to coordinate and complete a level with your friends.

The different levels add a lot of variety and randomness to the game, which leads to some very funny moments. In one level you might be dodging cars in the middle of the highway while trying to complete a painting and in another level you are running away from lions that are trying to eat you.

The good:

Lots of fast fun frenetic action, plenty of game modes.

Audio track is decent.

Good menus, extensive controls and customization.

Responsive, capable developer.

The bad:

Hard to see some items, visual style is lacking and can make things unclear sometimes.

I’ve played the local multiplayer several times with friends and have had a great time playing. The variety of game types and settings provide a lot of options for replayability. I can’t wait to play the campaign once it is released, especially since it can be played coop. Cymatically Muffed is reminiscent of older classics while still providing new and exciting mechanics of it’s own. Do yourself a favor and check it out.

Early access from 2016 so have to assume this is probably all we get. A bit of a shame really as it has a lot going for it. it’s a really fun little twin stick zombie shooter with a bunch of neat mechanics, upgrades and cute pixel graphics. Seems primarily designed for multiplayer/co-op but it’s great fun solo too. Unfortunately probably owing to early access the campaign is pretty short, still pretty fun though.

Some games that don’t get finished you shrug and move on, some are missed that little bit more, this is one of those that had some real promise to it so it’s a shame we didn’t get to see a bit more it even now.

Fun game to kill time, easy to play and get addicted to. Pixelated graphics, smooth gameplay, many different combinations of weapons allows you to regulate the difficulty of playing the game, some are stronger and synergize better with certain weapons. Although coop is recommended, buying the game at full price is not so.

We pooped all over the house and our parents tried to make us go to bed, but then zombies came and tried to steal our candy. Quite a well made couch game, lots of laughs to be had!

Playing with 3yo and gf. Highly recommend this to teach young ones joystick basics. Not an adult party game.

I played this game in an indie event last year and I am pleasently surprised by how much it evolved.

Some levels can be frustrating, but in a way that your reaction is: “I’m going to keep playing until I beat it!” and not: “F*ck this game, I don’t want to play anymore”

Also, playing it with friends makes it even more enjoyable.

Great game, simple but hard. I didn’t play alone, but it’s great to play with friends
