Shocking how enjoyable I found this game to be. I wasn't expecting to enjoy it as much as I did. My only real note is that landing correctly feels random. Maybe this is a skill issue for me, but every time a task required landing correctly after some kind of trick, I got it by chance and couldn't land correctly when actually trying to. Probably just a skill issue. Great game!

Let’s go Paperarrow fun one!

I’ve never had the opportunity to play as a giraffe. This was rad.

What I like

  • the spinning mechanics feel intuitive
  • to-do list helped me understand where and what I should be doing at any point in the game.
  • the game feels very “serious”
  • Giraffe

Where I got stuck

  • In orange, when I went up the ledge to get the achievement, I didn’t get it. Seemed to need to flip around a lot to make it happen.
  • In the orange room, I spent a lot of time trying to nail down the extra achievements.

Feels good, I could see this becoming a cool skateboarding game or number go up game.
