- Please enjoy my review of Penny's Big Breakaway! It released a little too early, but it's still the best platformer I've played in years.

My tinfoil hat theory is that they're laying the groundwork for when Sega comes to their senses and lets them do Classic Sonic in proper 3D.
Y'know what? I don't think Penny as a potential franchise deserves that kind of expectations, this game's that brilliant regardless of Sonic!
I think what happend in Sega threw these guys under the bus with Sonic Origins Collection and then Mania 2 fell through and so they came to theulir senses and realized "maybe we shouldn't entiery build ourselves around the company that made and sold Sonic 06 and said irrepribly flawed brand"
Rollin’ Rascal makes for a better sonic game
@@MrRedGreenBlue1what happened is sega barely paid them aside from tee lopes
Honestly... I prefer the yo-yo
@@vidjenko8349 last time i checked this isn't a sonic game & isn't trying to be.
In regards to the bugs I am willing to cut Evening Star a bit of slack here considering that PBB is basically running on a completely new custom-built engine and the fact that this was essentially the 1st big 3D project for many of the people involved.
If they were pressured into releasing before it was truly ready than that would likely be more on Private Division the publisher
Awesome
Still can't believe the've done that. Feels like it worked out for them, because I doubt they could get it feeling THIS good (when it works) otherwise.
Loving the 2008 youtube energy
As someone who really loves it, I think this review is 100% accurate.
This is a game spawned entirely out of a crusade for actual physics-based performing and the huge, organic skill curve it comes with. Everything else is secondary. It doesn't care that it takes some getting used to. It doesn't care that some people will cry "clunky and unresponsive" the moment their character slides a bit. It wants you to Tony Hawk's Pro Skater all over the place and it's GREAT at that. Penny being cute (+1 for sharp teeth on literally any character design) and the soundtrack being wonderful are just bonuses.
And yes, it was definitely released early. Biggest issue currently is that Yo-Yo swings get stuck sometimed so you can't release them properly, kinda screws everything- it could also use a little in-game guidebook showing you all the stuff you can pull off because I think a lot of people won't figure it out otherwise.
If you look at current WR recordings (or at least times that get close), it is *wild* how much timing swings properly matters. Like, I'm convinced that you need something approaching frame-perfect accuracy to really launch yourself as fast as possible (same goes for rolling onto slopes).
holy hell it's sans
Its only me or this guy look like sans?
Nah. Just you
is that sans
no
As a terraria player, Yes. yoyo's are lethal weapons that are to be feared.
The skeleton man dance quota has been met. Nirvana achieved.
Oh god I'm developing a reputation as the singing and dancing skeleton...
SANS UNDERTALE??
Some day i'll definitely get this game and that's why I wont watch this video (afraid of spoilers). But anyway this is "like" for my boy A Skeleton.
There is no spoilers 😒
@@porkyminch5131 ok 😐
I understand, but I kept the discussion firmly on gameplay only.
is this sans undertale’s youtube channel?
HOLY SHIT SANS UNDERTALE
the unfunniest
Game looks really fun, but also something I'll wait to go on sale until most of the major bugs/glitches are addressed. Another jolly good review Skeleton!
None of the bugs I found ruin the game or anything, restart from checkpoint and 99 times out of 100 you will not see it again
Thanks very much!
definitely picking this up some time this year
Thanks for showing this off! (patiently waiting for the shmup video)
Man...the camera angles look rough lol!!!
The game definitely reminds me of sonic. Great vid!!!
I'm definitely gonna get this game at some point! I love platformers and creativity like this is always welcomed. Too bad about the bugs, and the shadow should be visible directly below at all times. Let's hope they manage to fix the kinks by then.
Sans?
Awesome! Great job! this Review is amazing and had put a lot of love into it, And Had some Clever ryhmes that usually gets my attention quickly, Great job!
Thanks very much!
I'll get this sometime soon idk when. Hopefully the bugs and other stuff are fixed. Added this to my wishlist as soon as I seen the announcement trailer some months back.
I actually just discovered this channel since UA-cam was telling me it this video was suggesting my review of this game. Awesome stuff, I do agree with the skill level and the yoyo being a bit finicky at times. But as a full package, games an amazing momentum based platformer that is so obviously Sonic inspired.
can i be honest, I bought this game immediately on release, and when I first played it I thought it was crap and I got worried... until i got the YoYo and really started the tutorial. the movement felt interesting.
I got a little worried again when I played the first level, but when i got to the second i realized, Yep this is made by sonic fans. I enjoy it... but haven't had time to play it.
honestly if you want to play a old fashion platform with a great chunk of content, and fun levels, I'd recommend it.
Thank you Skeleton for another banger in the morning.
Thank you!
🤨
Ive been really enjoying this recent resurgence of 3D platformers. Ive been really liking Demons Turf lately. It has a really fun moveset and recommend it.
Great video. I have to get this game. Although I'm surprised that there's no replays on the leaderboards, this game seems like a PERFECT fit for that sort of time/score chasing competition
Great review. I'm definitely at a stage where the bugs and frustration of getting used to new level gimmicks leave me feeling sour, but the charm and allure of such a unique 3d Platformer keep me wanting to get into it.
As soon as i heard the noide the noise flash banged in my mind cuz that’s who noise is based off of
Why's Sans reviewing Penny's Big Breakaway?
i did wanna see a yoyo being used as a main weapon since, and i'm suprise The Yo-Yo seems to be getting love.
Was very looking forward to this game, glad to hear is good, i'll make sure to get it when I can as it looks amazingly fun!
I never actually used a yoyo before, I was too busy being bad at shuttlecock and hopscotch.
You mean badminton?
@@ASkeleton nah, I was decent at badminton. Dad loved tennis and all other racket games. My feet were my problem now that I think of it. I was especially bad at Soccer.
UA-cam is not letting me know about your new videos. I just remembered You and came to see what's new. Turns out, 3 new videos are available. Thanks for the good job, bro.
Got it on release and have been enjoying ever since
I also noticed not alot if critic reviews are available, you'd think a game promoted so heavily by Nintendo would have tons of reviews.....but not this one. Probably linked to the fact that the game was rushed out by Nintendo or the games publisher.
Plus the company is pretty new. They should have mentioned it was the same people that created Sonic Mania in that recent video.
Surprisingly well made video for a channel with only a few thousand subs.
Oh, and PBB is great, too.
Subs don't always equal a channel's quality
Hey there! Really enjoyed the video. I like your calm way of talking. Just found your channel while looking for Penny reviews :)
Balearic Birds is one BANGER of a tune. Listening to it non stop since you pointed it out. Btw can anyone tell me what the songs at 1:05 (probably some sonic game i guess) and 4:13 are? I really like those vibes
Thanks very much! The songs are Flowing from Sonic Frontiers and Puppet Pioneer from PBB.
@@ASkeleton Oh wow thanks a lot! I went through almost all the tracks from PBB and skipped that one cause i thought "It is probably just a crazy boss theme. That can't be it ... right?" Oh well ... >_
1:55 those who got to that part know the full context of that scene. 🤭
no god please no...
Thanks for the insight, Sans Undertale
Great review. Never seen your channel before. Keep it up
Thanks very much!
So far I’ve only seen 2 very minor bugs while I’ve been playing so far and I think it feels great. The weird part is I would expect more since I’m not even running it natively on windows
Really enjoyed this
My primary motivation for buying this game is that the Taboo Artist is hot as fuck
This game looks so charming and interesting. Definitely on my list.
Pumping out all these nice vids! Do you plan on making a video on that new Touhou Rhythm game that came out with the Undertale Crossover? Either way looking forwards to the next video!
Perhaps in a video about tuhu fan games. And yeah that game is totally on my radar. Thanks for watching!
I also got the impression the game wasnt finished yet
Hey, skeleton! You look different, you get a new sweater?
Maybe it's the way he's dressed?
Nope. Same hoodie as always!
@@just_some_guy.703 YOU DID NOT-
Fellow balearic birds enjoyer
Better than sonic games for sure
Not Sonic Mania
Nice review
Is this the game from the sonic mania creator
Mhm
Indeed
Yo skelly man! You ever played streets of rogue?
I think I tried it for a bit once but found it kind of obtuse.
Gotya
I'll try the game.
Sexellent!
I want to give this game a chance because it looks fun but currently i am not really in the mood and fear it might give me a negative view on this game that is entirely unfair.
it shadow dropped on other platforms like PlayStation the same day too. so how you blaming Nintendo for rushing the release?
Why blame Nintendo for this? It just doesn't make sense. Devs too have their own internal schedules. If Nintendo was all-commanding, surely they would've at least squeezed more teasers out of Silksong.
Sans reviewer
Are you secretly Nitro Rad? You talk exactly like him 😅
I'll never tell
Oh of course of course 😉😉Amazing video, by the way, mr. Skeleton @@ASkeleton
bud keeps thinking hes me
face reveal when
It is a tantalizing mystery isn't it?
Stop please stop talking
Youre gonna make me buy this game
Games is FAR from disappointingly buggy
people all assuming they have depression just cause they feel sad... man i hope you all dont actually experirnce it cause its nothing like you assume.... if this game "cured" your depression, you never had it
Okay relax. It's a figure of speech. An expression.
I like it, but the penguins ganging up on you is kinda frustrating
If they're ganging up on you, you're not shmoving
Sonic Mania is much easier than this, first of all it's not 3D, none of the mania developers has any experience working in three dimensions, it's got it's own challenges that aren't present in 2D game development. Secondly Sonic Mania builds on an already established gameplay formula, where the actual physics formulas for Sonic are well documented and widely available online due to so many sonic fangames existing, with this they went for something totally new so i'm not that surprised that there's bugs.
As for best Sonic game, that's still Sonic CD, sorry but Mania does not replace CD
Mania isn't even the best fangame, that would be Before the Sequel and After the Sequel imo
Conterversial take, maybe. But I hate that character design...
Get out of here wokie
Finally someone said it, it's a really fun game but damn is that character design unpleasant.
Maybe it's the alongated eyes, overly colorful palette or the hat that doesn't really suit the character.
What are you two talking about? This is Penny’s Big Breakaway, a fast, and most importantly CARTOONY 3D Platformer. Not some realistic and gritty game like the Last of Us 2. I understand people can have their own opinions, but I just don’t understand what’s inherently wrong with Penny’s design as a character.
I think it does a good job of balancing cute and loony but given that this isn’t the first time I’ve heard complaints, it’s probably worth looking into
To each their own. I like her. She puts a big ol smile on my face.
For a skeleton you're pretty big boned
Sonic mania is garbage
i didn't like it much
