Despite that, there was still excitement when I glimpsed a distant egg or glimmer of pollen-not for the collectible itself, but for what I'd see on the way. Meanwhile, collectible lore objects didn't tantalize, because the core mystery surrounding the House and how it relates to Milo's research was one I could handwave an explanation for easily enough. But meeting that threshold was kind of automatic, achieved easily enough by absentmindedly nabbing nearby clumps while gathering my obligatory Tinykin horde in each area. Which is good, because frankly, none of the actual collectibles that you gather while moving through Tinykin's rooms were very strong motivators.Ĭlumps of pollen litter the House's landscape, earning increased duration for your bubble glider if you collect enough in a given room. To me, these were the main reward for navigating all its nooks and crannies. Arachnophobes rejoice.įrom the fields splayed out across the greenbacked-sponges of the kitchen-floor farmland, to the thumbtack furniture in the food-tin apartment blocks, Tinykin is dense with delightful visual details. Tinykin's environmental artists get incredible mileage from the simple joy of seeing oversized household objects rearranged into insect-scale architecture and geography. The bathroom, meanwhile, has been converted into a perpetual silverfish nightclub. In the den, reverent shieldbugs have erected a cardboard cathedral. Its rooms are homes to different sections of bug society, each making up a self-contained level with its own theme and atmosphere.
Movement in Tinykin feels clean and satisfying, without any frustrations to make moving through its jumbo-shrunken world anything less than a pleasure.Īnd that's great, because the House is the real star of Tinykin, more than the titular creatures themselves. I had no stumbling over inexplicable geometry collisions, no missed jumps that I was convinced I'd make.
TINYKIN E3 FREE
Jumping, running, and deploying his bubble glider are all blessedly free from the kind of fumbling that's all too common in platforming elsewhere. Whether you're platforming or hurling Tinykin, Milo's actions are all snappy and responsive.
