Animal Well makes one an essential tool in the best metroidvania of 2024. Then Penny’s Big Breakaway uses them in the best platformer we all failed to buy in 2024. And now, at last, we have a game that takes childhood’s crappiest toy and lets us smack people in the face with it.In Pipistrello and the Cursed Yoyo, you play a little bat who’s been mooching off his auntie, who's an energy company boss with all the ethics of Logan Roy. Then four equally horrible business monsters turn up and drain your auntie’s life force, but you interrupt the process with—what else?—your trusty yo-yo. Naturally, your yo-yo is now possessed by your nagging aunt, who makes it clear that if you don’t help her, she won’t be able to bankroll your lifestyle anymore. How’s that for motivation?a free demo available on its Steam page.
