About Almost There: The Platformer

Almost There: The Platformer is a hardcore precision platformer developed by Bony Yousuf and published by The Quantum Astrophysicists Guild. Steam release: 19 February 2019.

You control a tiny square through more than 150 single-screen stages and timed challenges. Saw blades spin, lasers sweep, missiles home in and floors crumble, so every jump and wall slide has to be exact. Deaths are counted in the thousands, but restarts are instant and the clean, colourful visuals keep each hazard readable. Full controller support is included.

Related Games

Almost There owes a lot to Super Meat Boy, the game that made single-screen saw-blade gauntlets and instant restarts a genre staple, with a meat-coloured hero and plenty of extra challenge stages. Celeste pairs the same exacting jumps and dashes with a mountain climb and a heartfelt story, plus assist options if a screen gets too tough. Teslagrad adds magnetism and teleportation to its platforming, giving every hazard a puzzle twist. And In Between keeps the deadly single-screen rooms but lets you rotate gravity itself, so each death teaches you something new.
