Steam reviews

What players say

Players mostly recommend this cheap co-op physics game for laughs with a friend, but it is short and some call it low effort.

Many players enjoy playing this two-player co-op game with a friend, where coordinating paddle strokes while climbing and racing through checkpoints leads to shouting, laughter and friendly rivalry. Some reviewers call it a fun, frustrating test of a friendship and say the difficulty ramps up well as the levels progress. Many complaints concern the length: players say the main story can be finished in roughly one to three hours, and some say it does not justify its price, especially with paid map packs. Some players report desync and disappearing platforms that break the later checkpoints, and a few criticise the basic visuals and repetitive audio. Some recent reviews reflect a controversy over refunds after short playthroughs and the developer's response to it. Solo play gets little praise; many reviewers say the game is best with a friend.

Who it suits

Players who want a short, loud laugh with a friend on a shared screen or controller and enjoy trial-and-error challenges.

Who should skip it

Players who want a long campaign or play alone, since many reviewers say it is short and much less fun solo.

Short vs. long playtime: Players who finish it in under two hours often call it too short and some refund it, while players with several hours more often praise the teamwork and challenge.
