I am currently writing this review after getting the "golden" achievement which is considered a major milestone and is extremely difficult on it's own, and I wanted to write my thoughts about the game in this review.

N++ is a simplistic, momentum based platformer that feels extremely good to play. N++ is an expansion on the 2 previous games "N+" and "N" which are similar but a lot more outdated. The main "story" of the game is that you play as a ninja who only has 90 seconds to survive, and collecting gold throughout what are called "episodes" increases your death timer by 2 seconds. N++ also has A LOT of content, as well as a pretty good level editor, and even a community who creates difficult custom tabs that can also be a ton of fun if you are more into that sort of stuff. Anyways now that you know the basics lets talk about what I like/dislike about the game itself

Firstly, N++ is great because it feels a lot different than pretty much any platformer i've ever played, and the momentum based physics create some unique mechanics like "perp" jumping as an example. It is extremely satisfying to constantly improve through the extremely long and mostly great campaign (aside from a few levels). Another thing I really enjoy about this game is that the difficulty curve feels extremely good and prepares you well for levels that may seem impossible at first. Now let's discuss some of the less positive aspects...

To start a con everyone can agree on... N++ can randomly corrupt and you can lose everything in an instant. This is a known issue and has not been fixed, so you always have to keep in mind to manually save you data just in case which is a bit annoying. It is a rare bug, but there is a decent probability you will encounter it if you commit to 100%. Nextly, some levels feel extremely repetitive and similar to one another. This is mainly a problem in the legacy tab, but some levels are just boring because you feel like you have finished the level before. Lastly, a more minor problem is that there are some strange bugs when playing on full screen/on some resolutions, so sometimes you are forced to play on a smaller screen which is definitely an inconvenience.

Even with these flaws though, N++ has been incredibly fun and addicting, and I plan on playing a lot more in the future and know knows, maybe I will be a 100%er someday :p

TLTR; Fantastic platformer with unique momentum movement and lots of content. The game is great, but there are some save corruption issues and sometimes levels feel repetitive, but in my opinion one of the most fun games I've ever played and I would recommend picking up if you enjoy platformers at all.

Really fun arcade skateboarding game with awesome graphics, movement, level design, challenges, and more. Difficult for experienced players coming from the previous games, but still very beginner friendly and does a good job at teaching the mechanics one by one so it doesn't get overwelming. Highly recommended

Unique golf gang with some cool mechanics, and awesome graphics. Has some very minor issues with resolutions, but other than that would highly recommend picking up

Really enjoyable bike game with an insane skill ceiling. I have ~500 hours in the series and I am still a scrub compared to some of the top players. Even with that said though, it is so satisfying to see yourself improve on different ninja tracks you couldn't beat before, and get faster times on tracks you could have never dreamed of getting a month ago.

The game sadly got a lot of negative reviews because of Ubisoft launcher, which definitely has its flaws, but this game is 100% worth checking out.

Unique platformer where you use magnets to attract and repel yourself onto and away from a variety of platforms and walls. Game is fantastic. I didn't expect to like it as much as I did, but it's more than I was expecting. If you play on controller it might be a small bit more awkward, but still manageable. For sure worth the price ^^

Fun, arcade/reaction game that only uses the mouse. Fun for awhile, but difficulty is very inconsistent, and doesn't have a ton of content for the $8 price tag imo. Worth checking out still though if interested.

Phenomenal Speedrunning FPS, where the gimmick is cards act as guns, but can also be discarded for a special ability. Not much else to say besides the fact it's great.

(also has a banger OST)

Fun simplistic platformer, where the gimmick is that you can fly in the oppisite direction inside of walls. Really enjoyable, and I think the difficulty progression for beating the levels is great. Has over 160 levels as well, and "sun" times for every level. The difficulty for the sun times is pretty inconsistent tho, especially 131, which is one of the most disgusting times in an IL I have ever done. Took me about 3 hours just for that level alone.

TL;TR, Game is worth the price, and if you enjoy speed running I would recommend going for 159/160 sun medals and skipping 131 (trust me :p)

Cool and simple rhythm based bullet hell with a nice pink + black atmosphere. Has a really well working multiplayer, and over 50 songs to play and master. I also really enjoyed the story mode in this game, and actually had some very creative concepts that I had never seen in any other games before. But, it does have some of its songs locked behind unreasonably grindy requirements (17.5k BP, 50 challenges), and has a very inconsistent scoring system.

Overall I think it is a great game for people not used to the genre as it isn't super overwelmingly difficult, and is worth checking out.
