Shiftlings

Shiftlings (PS4) - an out of this world platformerShiftlings for PS4 is a creative and humorous puzzle-platforming experience set in a quirky space environment. Play it If: On this day of puzzles + coop from Portal 2 to Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime, good times are never too stressful or fun.

Two janitors with a pounds-per-square-inch difference between their air hoses and a universe of unique challenges. You have to get the characters through different layers by varying their sizes and weights in order to solve puzzles and make it past obstacles. Using input devices in new ways forces players to think strategically and work together, introducing unique, never-before-seen gameplay mechanics in a puzzle-platformer genre.

Experience over 50 levels set across five distinct worlds, each full of unique challenges and themes. With a vibrant and stunning visual aesthetic thats sure to catch your eye, the game breathes a life into its worlds which make for an inviting world for your adventure. There are some nice branching paths along the way, and the intricate detail in the level design offers a good balance of puzzles and platforming that feels like a cross between "LittleBigPlanet" and something more traditionally linear.

Enjoy the best cooperative gameplay the game has to offer, the way it was meant to be played with a friend. You work on a puzzle together: you talk to each other and make sure the two stick figures get through all the levels. Much like the fantastic cooperative gameplay of 'Rayman Legends,' there is nothing better than experiencing it with a friend or family member in couch co-op.

There's also a single-player mode in "Shiftlings" for those who prefer to play solo, where you can control both of the characters and swap between them as need be to solve puzzles. Add in the intuitive controls and clever level design that makes controlling both characters a breeze, and even one-man teams will have something to fill in those long, lonely evenings.

Relish the game's eccentric humor, likable characters. The humorous dialog and funny animations in the gameplay themselves creates a lighthearted feel, which makes it quite endearing to play through every level. It even has the same sort of humor you'd find in "The LEGO Movie Videogame."

Check out the extra features, and collections which obviously help to give the game new life by having collectibles. With secret items and side missions to uncover in each level, you'll be going back again and again to master every stage. Its range of challenges and the resulting feel of "bouncing on top" make you increasingly have to come again for added.

There is no way fans of puzzle-platformers and cooperative gameplay will be upset about picking up "Shiftlings" on PS4. With new mixes of invention and aesthetics combined with its proven puzzle design, it is simply a wonderfully unique and delightful offering. Get a friend, shuffle through the levels and romp around in this charming puzzle game set in space!
