2 жыл бұрынThanks to SuperRareGames for providing this Switch game code!
I'm always on the lookout for fresh new platformers, and SuperRareGames gave me an opportunity to check out their latest title, Grapple Dog! And sure enough, it's given me Bionic Commando, Sonic the Hedgehog, and Donkey Kong Country vibes! Check it out!

Hi everyone! I just wanted to let you all know that the recently released patch addresses many of the Switch performance issues I mentioned in this review! Thanks for your time!

Thanks for the review, I hadn’t heard about this game at all until now. I love the art style and how much the characters and items pop against the background. Also nice to hear about the accessibility options; it’s great that that seems to be happening with more and more games now. I’ll definitely be checking this out!

As I said in the review, me neither! But I think more people should find out about it!

Reminds me a bit of Grapple Force Rena, but Pablo definitely seems to have a lot more mobility and options with the actual grappling mechanics than Rena did. Will probably be checking this one out at some point.

Yea, Pablo just felt great to control, even with the uncertainty of the physics! That’s when you can tell that they did something great with it!

I love cute platformer, might check this out later. Anyway, back in 2017 i played a similar game like this one, both is cute and both uses grapple mechanic, but i think grapple dog is easier than this game, the name of the game is silver grapple.

At least you can pet the dog unlike with most modern games nowadays so that is already an improvement and the artstyle is cute enough to grab people's attention. The game was giving me flashbacks to super meat boy but at the very least while it is difficult, it is not say cursing and saying profanity at the screen hard like super meat boy lol. Overall, a pretty nice and short review Alex!

It’s definitely not the level of difficulty of Super Meat Boy lol

I'm happy it's performing well, as I remember seeing footage of it on Twitter a few years ago. The pixel art is comparable to that of a GBA or DS game. It's another game I'll add to my Switch wishlist!

This looks a lot of fun, I'll have to get it at some point! Its artstyle and gameplay remind me of the GBA, in the best way possible.

That’s a good point! It does look like it was made for the GBA!

I'm always keeping an eye out for charming new platformers, and this one looks like a ton of fun. I dig the artstyle, and the gameplay looks really kinetic. My only hope is that you can remap the buttons. B as confirm on a Switch game is... awkward xD

I sadly didn’t find any way to remap it! Just had to deal with it 😅
