And it’s out now
Super Magbotis one of those platformers with a twist, where the twist is that you can’t jump. Instead you draw yourself towards and propel yourself away from differently coloured platforms using magnets. I likedthe demo when I played it in April, and the full game is out now.

Death is difficult platformers always come due to your error: mis-timing a jump, or misjudging the strength required, say. But it is perhaps extra frustrating to die because you forgot whether you need to repel or attract on blue, or forgot how that changes when it’s a vertical versus a horizontal platform. Countering that frustration are a set of assist modes that let you turn on mid-level checkpoints, or turn off the limitations on air time or your magnet.
