I just bought it used for $45. Started 5 hours ago, now time to sleep, then play again.

It is a better super Mario game. The difficulty is a bit higher I think, there’s some platforming where I thought like "ain’t no way some of my friends would get this first try"

I love it,

How does it compare to something like Sackboy?

[–] Nikls94@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Not one bit. Sackboy is a 2d platformer, AstroBot is 3d. It feels like a Super Mario Galaxy 3 - better than 2 in every way. If AstroBot would have a wall jump and triple jump it totally would be a super Mario Galaxy 3.

Do you mean that Sackboy was relatively grounded compared to Astrobot or are thinking of Little Big Planet?

Either way, it sounds like I need to play Astrobot.

Astrobot is far far better than sackboy
