It is a fun game but regardless of what I seem to play it on, it will cause my PC's video to basically cut out entirely forcing me to restart it, both my main PC and my Laptop running Linux seem to have this problem, I do have the Xbox version and it seems to not have this issue, hopefully somebody has a way to iron out this issue. Aside from that, the game is still fun, I like how this version has workshop support, runs great despite the video issues, fast and quick and definitely fun to set up at events and trips, also the soundtracks and Portal Worlds are very underrated, kind of wish those got their own mode alongside Sunrise honestly, the lakeside themed one is such a vibe. worth checking out, but does need some fixes on the technical side.
I bought this game after seeing a video game essayist mention it. I walked away from it and haven't really touched it in several years. It is still a very good game! I bought the DLC! It is excellent as well! Good Game!

Cool
fun and nostalgic
Why can I write a review for this I dont even own it. But I get a powerful nostalgia from looking at it.
Very fun and nostalgic
This game is a prime example of why gameplay > graphics every time. Simple yet addicting gameplay loop. The dashing is physics/momentum based and feels great. The standard mode is hard but not too punishing (there is also a "hardcore" mode). You really have to dial-in and get your controls right for this game, you need fast and precise inputs. If you're primarily playing this on a Steam Deck, this is one of those 5W TDP 90fps games, the battery will last forever while playing this. Edit: The dev recently stated that he's is planning to update the Steam version with new features. The online leaderboards server is currently broken and there's no way to see your high score (even offline). Hopefully those issues get ironed out with the new update.
great fast paced game to waste some time, love the music
1/10
Геймплей мобилки, в вр, вероятно, прикольно, иначе как-то хз, зачем в это играть.
