Beneath a simple gameplay concept and a stunning watercolour facade, Neva is a finely-tuned example of design and emotional storytelling.
XBA says: An emotional story that delivers an experience of love and loss.
VGChartz: "What can one say when there's a clear favourite in a category? Well, firstly, when it comes to Best Platformer never under-estimate this community's enthusiasm for Sonic games when it comes to end-of-year voting, especially when it's one that was well-received by fans. The dark horse of our shortlisted titles has to be Neva, a visually and emotionally stunning indie darling from the studio behind Gris. Next up we have the studio most well-known for the Yakuza series incongruously trying its hand at a brand new entry in the Super Monkey Ball series, fresh off the heels of its successful remake entry. Last, but certainly not least, is the aforementioned favourite: Astro Bot and its ode to PlayStation."
Best Platformer for me Ratchet and Clank and Knack
My personal opinion only
TNS: "I'd argue Devolver Digital, with its unique identity, is one of the most important publishers in the video game industry today."
