A casual and wholesome game about friendship between the sticks of different colors 😊 Great for people who are looking for a calm, stress relieving experience featuring easier levels. 😊😊😊

This game offers a simple yet clever idea—rotating a stick to climb upwards. While it may seem easy at first, getting used to the controls can take some time, making it both challenging and rewarding. The co-op mode is a blast, letting you and a friend work together to reach new heights. It’s tricky at the start, but once you get the hang of it, it becomes really addictive! Perfect for anyone looking for a fun, …

An irritating game with surprisingly well thought platforming. The hard to grasp mechanics become second nature with time and then you can really enjoy coming up with solutions. It's crazy to see a spinning stick can have this much variation in motion. Falling down after clenching your butt cheeks for 30 minutes straight is an experience that makes you question all your life choices. It's almost as if Halo 2 met …

This game has a lot of potential. The mechanics of the game are smooth which makes the gameplay fun, but it can get frustrating when you sometimes fall all the way down from a hard part you just completed. I get that it is supposed to be hard, but since there isn't a certain guide or tutorial in the game (except the begining) that allows you to master the techniques to pass certain harder levels repeating the same …

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Stick It! is extremely enjoyable if you play locally with friends, and it’s a chill experience if you play alone (unless you fall down)… The game mechanics revolve around turning a stick and how fast you can spin it. While it may look simple, mastering it is not so easy. If you enjoy games like Getting Over It, you should definitely give this game a try.

neutral · AI labelView post →Stick It!, developed by Jovial Studios and published by indie.io, is an inventive physics-based platformer that reimagines movement and precision through the use of rotational momentum rather than simple jumping. On the surface, it appears to be a straightforward platforming game about guiding a stick figure across hazardous environments, but underneath that simplicity lies a surprisingly intricate system built on rhythm, timing, and finesse. Released on Steam in 2024, the game quickly gained…
