It’s best seen in motion

There are more good-but-not-great indie platformers than we know what to do with, and even as a lifelong fan, the games that lack that extra something all tend to blur together.Ynglet, the next project fromKnyttandAffordable Space Adventuresdeveloper Nifflas, shouldn’t struggle to stand out.

It’s a platformer with “no platforms” – a game about dashing between bubbles like a “space dolphin.”

Yngletstrikes me as a cross betweenPixelJunk Eden,Hohokum, andFlow, but not in a derivative way. I love every last one of those games. I can already tell I’ll like this too – especially the dynamic music.

Nifflas, Triple Topping Games, and artist Sara Sandberg are bringingYngletto PC in 2020.
