Quote:
Yoku the dung beetle sets foot on the beach of Mokumana Island, ready to take on the duties as the new postman. But the ancient island God is trapped in a restless sleep and the islanders are plagued by quakes and storms brought forth by its nightmares.

Yoku's Island Express is a unique and quirky adventure with handcrafted visuals, where you’ll soar through the air, vacuum explosive snails, fight a Screetch, feed starving lemurs, discover the mystery of the Fruit Altar, wake an old god, and hopefully help tiny Yoku rebuild the island post-office.

  • Genre combining open world pinballing
  • Unique beautifully handpainted artwork
  • An island filled with unique creatures, both big and small
  • Action-packed nonlinear gameplay that awards exploration

Looks really interesting and its a neat concept. Glad to see it coming to Switch as it would be a great game to have on the go.

this one maybe nice, i like classic pinball but i always look for more stuff to happens on the board and this maybe the right answer.
there are few games like this already but this one looks more deep.

Looks nice and original.
The ant-character reminds me of a domino game I played on my Amiga 500 Very Happy


There must have been a door there in the wall, when I came in.
Truly gone fishing.

This is such a charming little game, it's all about controlling a beetle pushing his beloved ball, half metroidvania and half pinball with great focus on exploration and a beautiful natural art-style So Much Win

The level design is organic/open and full of surprises, it's not about the challenge (no grim reaper waiting for you, ever) but there are multiple abilities to unlock for hidden shortcuts, paths and fruity goodies which keep the experience fresh. It's not exactly long if one sticks to the main quest, though there are bizarre characters to encounter and also mini-quests to do (took me ~6 hours to complete it) and as per usual, the ride is going to be longer for anyone who wants to collect everything. A pleasant surprise really, recommended if you're looking forward to something light-hearted and relaxing that isn't devoid of gameplay.
