As a quick summary, I completely and wholeheartedly recommend ElecHead. I think it’s worth the price of entry and if your video games tastes are anything like mine, you’ll have a lot of fun with the game.

To get a bit more detailed, ElecHead is short, sweet, and feels like a callback to a style of game that I don’t see as much of anymore. I saw someone else compare the game to VVVVVV (6 Vs), and I think it’s a pretty apt comparison, but they’re still quite dissimilar in a lot of ways. ElecHead’s emphasis is on platforming and puzzles, without any semblance of a story. You’re a robot. You need to go forwards. That’s all you need.

This is just my personal preference, but I think the limited color palette and near complete lack of text makes for a very endearing atmosphere. Throughout the game you’ll unlock different color palettes to choose from as well, which I think is always a bonus.

I didn’t 100% the game, I might in the future, but I experienced the bulk of the content and it took me about 2 and a half hours. I think for the price that’s a fair deal, and the bonus content can probably give the game another half hour or so, maybe another hour max.
