put in some shit about the nukes, life, or your dog. Otherwise the most you're going to get is a passing mention. That's the fate of Specter Spelunker Shrinks, a jump puzzle game essentially where you shrink or grow to make the jumps. It has a single moment in the start where you need to get through somewhere and it's not immediately apparent, though other than that you just adjust height, do jumps, hit checkpoints.
Legendary Game Designer Dave Sirlin declared it 2010 GOTY, though that's mainly because it reminded him of an idea he once had. It loses points -- keeping it from GOTC -- for not having boundable controls, even though it's a three minute flash game.
Rock Paper Shotgun kind of shrugs and struggles to declare something fun without it involving the protagonist turning into a tombstone suddenly, additionally they include video that spoilers probably the only "A-ha" moment of the game (surprisingly located in the tutorial). They end is sort of a cute moment, but more confusing than meaningful. |
