Pecker

highly recommend! this game takes that one super fun bird mechanic from super mario oddyssey, and creates a small, but whole game around it. although we ran into a few bugs, this game is insanely fun, especially if you play it in koop mode. we met the dev on the gamescom, a very friendly person, and we hope he continues to make games <3 the only thing that was a bit disappointing was the ending, but you can't work on a game forever, if you want to finish it eventually. overall we had a lovely time, and we will come back to it to 100% it!

Very cool platforming with creative mechanics! The art is cute, there is a lot of fresh takes and the physics makes it fun to just play around in. The twitch integration also brings a lot of laughs! Thanks, very refreshing and cute!

[COPY RECEIVED FROM KEYMAILER] Super fun little puzzle platformer! I'm really impressed with the large world scale on display; there are no invisible walls that I found and you can get pretty much anywhere on a level map, even if there isn't a reason to get to a place. I had a wonderful time playing through the game myself, but the co-op mode that is available seems like it could be very fun! There is also a decent Twitch integration system, if that's something you're looking for! My only complaint is that the ending feels a little anti-climactic; it kind of just ends with no real fanfare or sense of progression. Otherwise, it is honestly a great little gem that's pretty fun to play through. If you're looking for a fun and wholesome little 3D platformer, this is a pretty good one!

A surprisingly Slick 3D platformer. Pecker is a charming 3D collectathon platformer that instantly evokes memories of Spyro and Banjo-Kazooie. And get this, it’s made by a solo dev. You play as a newly-hatched woodpecker named… yep, Pecker. The controls are spot-on. Movement feels tight, responsive, and fun — something a lot of modern platformers still get wrong. What sets it apart is the “peck” mechanic: you can stick to wooden surfaces and launch yourself like a slingshot. It’s intuitive and satisfying, opening up creative movement possibilities. Each level has its own unique style, from snowy peaks to a world made of cardboard. Some areas are more polished than others, but they all have personality. The snow level in particular is a standout, with cozy vibes and great atmosphere. There are light puzzles, optional upgrades, and a refreshing level of freedom. No invisible walls, no strict paths, just exploration and creativity. It respects your time and curiosity. It’s not perfect. A few moments feel undercooked, like a sliding section with no animation or sound, but they don’t take away from the experience. Pecker isn’t trying to reinvent the genre. It just reminds us why we loved it to begin with. Fun, focused, and full of heart. If you’re into 3D platformers, it’s an easy recommendation. Although I am a little dissappointed in the last hour of the game as its missing content & a proper wrap up. I still recommend it but just FYI Also updates are underway to polish the game up even more from what the developer mentioned, So I'll be updating down below as they happen.

[h2]Bonjour à tous ![/h2] Pecker est un jeu de plateforme où l'on incarne un oiseau qui va explorer différents mondes, rempli de puzzles, d'escalades et trésors cachés ! Review faite sur Twitch : https://www.twitch.tv/hyrroh [h3]Points positifs :[/h3] - La DA est très mignonne - Le gameplay est satisfaisant, la mécanique du bec est très bien pensée - On a envie de fouiller de fond en comble la map - De la coop locale, de quoi jouer avec des enfants ! - De nouvelles compétences à acheter avec les collectables - Ça peut paraître assez basique, mais le fait que les traces de pattes ou les coups de bec sur les murs/objets restent dans le temps, je trouve ça très bien fait [h3]Points négatifs :[/h3] - Le jeu m'a l'air assez court - Je crois avoir généré un bug dans le troisième monde, impossible de retrouver le fruit doré, je ne pouvais donc pas terminer le niveau [h3]Axes d'améliorations :[/h3] - Peut-être mettre en place un système de repop des objets de quête (comme ce fruit doré, ou le livre que l'on doit chercher dans un autre monde), si Pecker est loin du fruit et que celui-ci n'est plus sur son socle, le faire réapparaître justement sur son socle Un très bon petit jeu, à tester en multi avec des enfants, je suis sûr qu'ils vont s'éclater dessus ! [b]Note globale : 18/20[/b]

An absolute hidden gem! This game perfectly blends a cute aesthetic and classic platforming with fresh, modern ideas. The level design is excellent. While there are a few minor rough edges, it's incredibly polished for a solo dev project—we experienced no bugs. The local co-op is a fantastic addition and works flawlessly. Highly recommended for some fun couch co-op! The main character (surprise, it is a Pecker) is a cutie! <3
