Review: Get Good (Steam)

A tough, skill-based precision 2.5D platformer that will push you to your limits. Can you get good?

Pros:

  • Nice graphics.
  • 360mb download size.
  • Graphics-quality preset, resolution, and full screen.
  • Twitch Integration.
  • Hardcore platformer gameplay.
  • It requires pixel-perfect timing and jumps.
  • Controls-move, jump, and fire.
  • Fun modes-chase, death chase, endless ascent, target test trails.
  • Stats screen on the pause menu.
  • Instant restarts.
  • Checkpoints.
  • Game-you control your robot with WASD and the mouse controls a cursor that you use to shoot which helps you jump higher.
  • High skill ceiling needed.

Cons:

  • Ridiculously hard difficulty.
  • Cannot rebind keys.
  • Music doesn’t always load.
  • Lacks an in-depth tutorial.
  • The learning curve with the controls.
  • Not clear where to go and what’s on your screen and what isn’t in the back/foreground.

Gaming since the Atari 2600, I enjoy the weirdness in games counting Densha De Go and RC De Go as my favourite titles of all time. I prefer gaming of old where buying games from a shop was a thing, Being social in person was a thing. Join me as I attempt to adapt to this new digital age!
