About the game
You control one of two small robots sent to restore Earth's disabled beacons. Moving is part of the challenge. Each stick controls a different leg, so even walking across a narrow platform needs care. You slide over smooth ground, move objects and work through forests, deserts and icy mountains.
With a friend, you tackle levels built for a pair. You take turns stepping on coloured platforms, balance your weight and swing each other across gaps on a rope. You can play together online or share one screen. The main campaign is short, with harder challenges, hidden stars and cosmetic items giving you reasons to return. Expect plenty of failed steps and a lot of attention to what your partner is doing.
How it feels
Kind of game
