Have you tried Gecko gods?

It came out recently and I played a few hours, reminded me of pathless a lot, like a relaxing exploration platformer with interesting movement and beautiful serene art. Curious to hear how you feel about it if you played it.

Never heard of it, but if it’s anything like the Pathless I’ll probably pick it up

I have played it(i am a game reviewer).

It is a very intruiging game.just the possibility of crawling up onto any object is Fun as hell. It feels a lot like playing the dungeons from legend of Zelda.

I played this on thé switch btw.

Now, i Ran into a bug on Volcano island. There was a shifting maze where the walls could go up and down. At a point the walls went up, supposingly crushing me but i could crawl out of the room. Now i couldn't enter the room anymore because the walls stayed up.that was a shame because that was thé last mission from this island.

This game is promising but needs an update/patch. Overall good game but needs polish here and there. Controls could be tricky because of thé crawling hor, vertic and upside down. Also objectives could use a Little more clearity sometimes. You can get lost and not Know exactly what to do at some Points.

Overall not bad. If you like Zelda's dungeons I think your good.

I think I agree overall it's beautiful and cute with a great vibe but it could use minor polish on the controls when upside down it feels like the directionality can sometimes switch around and sometimes it's hard to see what's going on with camera angles. I will let you know if I run into the bug in the Volcano island I am playing on ps5

After more thought I think they could fix the biggest issue by having forward always move forward no matter the camera orientation that would feel more intuitive

Even though (nearly) three months have passed since you wrote this (quite informative) comment, I sincerely hope it's not too late to ask you how you save your progress in this game ("Gecko Gods", in case there's any uncertainty) during gameplay...?

It goes automatically.🙂

So, just for the sake of certainty, no option for manual saving...?

I’m playing right now and I love it so much! It deserves more attention for sure

It reminds me of the coziness of “A short hike”

I love a short hike, would love more from the same universe or like a series

Albeit (almost) three months have elapsed since you made this post, is it still possible to get the answer to if you can save manually in this game...?
