Bionic Bay is one of the best platformers I have played in a long time, and quite possibly one of the best I have ever played.

A fast-moving and savagely difficult 2D platformer that draws equal inspiration from Limbo and Soulsborne games, with its own restless sense of invention that never falls short.

The best thing I can say about a game of this nature is that it accomplishes what it sets out to do. It creates puzzles to be solved, gives players the tools to succeed, and then makes you feel like a dextrous genius when you execute successfully.

Bionic Bay is filled with an incredible sense of momentum. You're constantly challenged to experiment to keep moving forward. There's much to enjoy between the campaign and speedrunning mode, which never overstays its welcome. It's pretty clear the developers made a game they wanted to play, and their passion doesn't go unnoticed.

As I ventured through Bionic Bay, I kept feeling this warm sense of nostalgia, like returning to an older era of indie gaming. Several factors contribute to this. The developer’s previous work, Badland, was a source of endless competitive joy for my friends and me when it was first released. I can see a lot of Badland’s art style and gameplay in Bionic Bay, as well as the DNA of several iconic pla...
