Despite the lack of prizes for going above and beyond, I found Bzzzt to be a delight. This is a platforming masterpiece crafted by people who know the genre inside and out. Anyone who loves super-intense platforming is all but guaranteed to adore it, as it’s a truly exceptional game that’s as rewarding to play as any of the top titles in the genre.

It’s a very fun old-school platformer that manages to stand out even in a very crowded genre, and it’s definitely worth picking up.

This game is in one word a masterpiece. A game in which every inch is carefully cut, sanded smooth and polished with a fine velvet cloth. A game that has received a tremendous amount of care, tireless work and dedication from the author. [Issue#332]

The game is great. But you have to be prepared for it to be tough. Literally, almost right at the start of the game, you get an infinite dash, and you'll be forced to use it to its full potential if you want to unlock all the achievements. Or unlock dozens of additional levels after the main story. And this game doesn't forgive even a split-second lag. Seriously. Overall, I really enjoyed the game, but at times I didn't like some of it's parts not because of the difficulty itself, but rather because of the overly tight timing. I highly recommend it, both for a casual play-through and even more so for those who enjoy challenges or speed-runs.

A fun little platformer. Liked the pixel art. Liked the music. Was a fun time. Just a bit short for $12, I got it for cheap in a bundle.

It's a solid game with great controls and feeling. Artstyle is nice and music is really catchy. It was little bit too short for me but it wasn't boring or dull. There are lot of well crafted levels and these ones are amazing! But unfortunately there are also really badly designed levels and it's a shame... Sometimes this game can be very frustrating but overall it is a pretty good title.

Bzzzt is definitely everything I want in a retro-style platformer. It's fun with great controls and music to make you keep going even after 100 deaths. I cannot recommend this game enough.

Um dos melhores jogos de plataforma que tive a oportunidade de conhecer esse ano. Tanto em gráficos, jogabilidade e principalmente na sua trilha sonora.
Não consegui achar um ponto para criticar... apenas, se você e fã do estilo e curte pixel art, esse jogo pra vc.

Extremely challenging but imaginative levels with references to many classic games of history are great for hardcore players. However, newbies, casual and regular players will have much more trouble and less fun.
