Our take on Ynglet

The defining choice is removing platforms from a platform game: traversal instead runs through connected spaces using movement and environmental elements.

What is Ynglet?

Ynglet is an experimental platform game without platforms.

Movement uses jumps, dashes, slides, bounces, and floating to cross an abstract sky. The spaces include slipstreams, reflective pads, and bubbles where the character can rest. Movement also affects a reactive soundtrack, producing a different melody as the character moves. The hand-drawn visuals use a doodle-like style, with colors filling the environments. Quick respawns and adjustable difficulty shape the challenge, with difficulty available in finer increments. The experience centers on navigating interconnected spaces through movement rather than jumping between conventional platforms.

How Ynglet plays

01Platform-free navigation: Slipstreams, reflective pads, and resting bubbles provide different ways to move through interconnected spaces.
02Reactive soundtrack: The music changes with movement, creating a melody shaped by each run.
03Adjustable challenge: Quick respawns and finely adjustable difficulty let players change the challenge.
