What players say
This game is the definition of smooth. As in the mix of animation together with effects and gameplay has zero slowdown (except the actual slow-motion to emphasize explosions). You can turn down the effects if you want, but I kept them on and also turned on the readability of enemy bullets. The controller rumble goes really well with all the carnage on screen, very well put together game.
Very fun game really love it and like what they did specially if you pause you can buy items and a vehicle hopefully with get a sequel to this diamond of a game definitely recommend to friends and fellow rog ally and steam deck fellows
Unfortunately, Mighty Goose is not up to par with the better options of action platformers here on Steam. Although it has somewhat charming pixel art, the presentation is a little rough. On many occasions, the screen ends up cluttered with enemies and glitchy visual effects, making it hard to read what's happening. The floaty jump doesn't feel good either, not meshing well with the character's fast, long-distance...
