Our take on Rectangle Guy
Players looking for a low-pressure platformer may bounce off the strict Time Attack timers, especially when pursuing the R ranking. The post-game section adds further difficulty, with some extra levels and challenges described as exceptionally demanding.
What is Rectangle Guy?
Rectangle Guy is a platforming adventure built around regular levels, boss encounters, and travel through varied environments.
Its signature down dash increases falling speed and is used during platforming situations. Boss fights use Fire Panel technology and exclude random elements. The main story is followed by Warden on the Job, an epilogue set in familiar areas altered by the True Void. Time Attack mode adds strict timers to the levels, including an R ranking for the most demanding runs. After the main adventure, additional levels and challenges provide hours of post-game content, with some sections described as particularly difficult.
