levelHead, an augmented-reality spatial-memory game by Julian Oliver
VGChartz's Craig Snow: "Even if you ignore mobile releases, each year hundreds of video games release. Most are probably fairly average and nondescript; a decent chunk are awful and rightly consigned to the metaphorical dustbin of history; a select few are hotly anticipated, highly acclaimed, and hugely successful commercially; some are widely anticipated but either critical or commercial duds, not so much confined to the dustbin of history as hung up in cages, to be gawped at and occasionally pelted with rotten fruit or vegetables.
But let us turn to the deserving poor; the games treasured by a small number critics and gamers alike, but which for whatever reason simply haven't received the audience they deserve. The games (almost) no one played. Here are 10 such titles from 2020."
Butterscotch Shenanigans’ Steam profile states: “We make humorous, butterysmooth 2D games and inject our souls into each one.” Having played their most recent project, a platformer-maker called Levelhead, I would have to agree with this unique mission statement.
James writes: "Levelhead on Xbox One offers a surprisingly deep platformer experience wrapped up in a comedic package. Its jokes don’t always land but its tone and style are solid throughout. For those without a Nintendo Switch, it offers a very tempting similarity to Super Mario Maker, but is still interesting enough to stand out without the comparison."
