Summary

Velocity Noodle is a fast and fluid platformer that looks stylish as hell and is very satisfying to play once you get into a rhythm with it. The start up of the game is tough as you get to grips with how fast and fluid it is, having to try and read the tutorial signs in the background can be a bit of an eye strain. OK so Velocity Noodle is a game that you will play a lot of and in particular will play the same level over and over as you hone the perfect route. Shame it doesn’t have a leaderboard but the self satisfaction is enough to keep you plugging away. It’s very much a master class of the genre and you will either love it or hate it but it will entertain you.

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!
