May 14,25(10 months ago)

At Pocket Gamer, the buzz around the Dadish series is always palpable. The series, beloved by our team, continues to captivate with the latest release from creator Thomas K. Young, titled Be Brave, Barb. If you're a fan of inventive platformers, now's the perfect time to dive into this new adventure.

In Be Brave, Barb, you take control of the brave cactus, Barb, on a thrilling quest to defeat King Cloud and his henchmen. This gravity-bending platformer introduces a unique twist with its core mechanic, allowing you to manipulate gravity to leap between platforms and deftly dodge obstacles. Fans of classics like Gravity Rush will feel right at home with this mechanic.

With 100 meticulously crafted levels, five challenging bosses, and what the developers humorously refer to as "questionable therapy," Be Brave, Barb offers a robust experience for both Dadish enthusiasts and platformer aficionados. The game also supports controllers and features nostalgic, retro-style graphics that enhance its appeal.

Cactus JackThomas K. Young's catalog consistently delivers a retro vibe that feels timeless and evokes a sense of nostalgia. The visual style harks back to a period when indie games flourished with similar aesthetics, creating a comforting familiarity for players.

Despite the new direction, Be Brave, Barb maintains the high standard of quality synonymous with the Dadish series. If you're eager for more platforming action and are open to exploring innovative gameplay, Barb might just become your new favorite hero.
