What players say
"Witcheye" is a great and simple game that got me by suprise! It really looks and sounds amazing, the pixelart and worldbuilding is colorful and crisp, the OST just slaps, it's nostalgic and funky! Gameplaywise it's quite simple: You play a floating eyeball and you basically just move or stop in place controlwise. It is a little weird at first and feels a little basic, but the whole leveldesign is centered around it...

It's good. The gameplay feels fresh because you have full mobility as a ball. The game is pretty (for the genre), and there's enough variety to keep things fun throughout the short campaign. Only a few sections require more precision than this kind of control scheme can provide, which creates some frustrating moments. Finding the collectibles and secrets is part of the fun, though some of them are so well hidden...
I think blocking you from starting on harder difficulties is a mistake. In my case, I won't be playing the game all over again after doing it once just because now it is a little harder. I would just done it on a harder difficult from start.
