positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I was impressed by the Pikuniku 2 trailer at the Direct so I picked up the first game, which is on sale for 200 yen. And it was fantastic! A silly puzzle-platformer with a lot of variety. Definitely looking forward to the sequel now!

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →And some fanart of THE BEAST Pikuniku 2 will be game of the year every year forever
unlabelledView post →This is one of the most bizarre games I've ever played! You play as a circle with legs, kicking people, playing basketball, creating art, talking to quirky guys, finding bugs, making toast, swinging through the air like Spiderman, avenging your brother's pizza shop, and fighting political corruption. Is all of this real? Who knows! You'll just have to play to find out!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Pikuniku Another small little indie game I was able to fit in before the big fall rush hits! Cute, charming, funny dialogue with a homemade feel. Thought the gameplay was pretty basic I still enjoyed my 3-4 hours with it, excited to check out the sequel next year! 7/10
unlabelledView post →In celebration of Pikuniku 2 I will replay Pikuniku on the weekends maybe. One truly joyous game!

unlabelledView post →Pikuniku is a funny little game
unlabelledView post →its a nice game, i played it with my sister who is 6 yrs old and she beat my ass at that racing part which annoyed me losing to a 6 yrs old and i kept kicking her the whole game she said "stop!" i felt like a total bully but yeah pitiness took over me i guess
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is more than just a game, it's a political statement. It has a lot to say about capitalism and what happens when people become complacent. Corporations and the elite class make decisions for ordinary people that benefit themselves while everyone else pays the price. Beneath its cute art style and quirky humor is a surprisingly sharp critique of greed, power, and exploitation.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Staring at my steam games list desparately looking for a game that gave me the same level of whimsy that Pikuniku did
unlabelledView post →Weirdly, Pikuniku 2 is the game most sticking in my head after all these announcements. Something about the emphatic PIKUNIKU RETURNS makes me both confused and amused. Returns? Do I know this little red creature? Should I? WHERE AM I, OH GOD! (I completely missed the first game, so yeah)
unlabelledView post →Ok not enough ppl are hype for the new Switch Sports Resort. That was my fav announcement from yesterday!! Also Pikuniku 2 makes me wanna play Pikuniku 1!! What kinda game is that it looked so silly!!
unlabelledView post →good nighte everybody I would continue playing the Pikuniku game...
unlabelledView post →PikuNiku is a fantastic game I'm certain most people haven't done the co-op on. We beat it all! Thank you ALL for coming by today [Special thanks @badluckbee.bsky.social for joining me]
unlabelledView post →everyone and their mother has called this game charming. you should listen to your parents or something
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →cute game! the story is really charming and the dialogue is really funny sometimes. i do wish that they let us explore the final area after completing it, i missed an item and have to restart the playthrough to get it :( but overall great game!! loved the music, will be humming it for the next few days
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Eh, I'd give this a neutral, if I could. It's certainly whimsical and funny when there's stuff happening but the problem is that there are such massive portions where nothing is really happening. And the game is only like 4 hours long, to begin with. I definitely had some fun with it but there were also times I was so bored I had to stop playing. It's a mixed bag. The writing is great, the characters and puzzles are great, it just needs to not have so many sections where there's literally…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Pikuniku is a wonderful game (and dirt cheap rn on Switch it's $2)
unlabelledView post →Pikuniku 2 is the only game announcement I’ve been excited by this week. I can’t wait. youtu.be/G-llkKMJxjY?...
unlabelledView post →Also I think Pikuniku 2 is a sleeper hit of the Direct, what a fun game the original was, and Calum Bowen (aka bo en) is a beast on their whimsical OST work. (If you wanna hear some good indie game OSTs, check out the original Pikuniku, as well as Lovely Planet and Winnose OSTs)
unlabelledView post →This is my favorite game! (I've played for a total of 97 hours). Awesome story, character and world building, the music is SOOOOO VIBEYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!

unlabelledView post →I’m watching Nintendo Direct discourse and why all the disrespect towards Pikuniku? That game rips and more people should play it
unlabelledView post →Pikuniku!! I haven't played the game but it looks cute. Saw they're making a second one during the Nintendo Direct! Neat!
unlabelledView post →44. Píkuniku Every so often, we just need a game that feels like distilled joy in a bottle. Pikuniku is a wonderful puzzle-exploration game that will draw a smile even in the darkest of days. It's just silly fun.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun, bright, and satisfying. This wasn't as dystopian as I would have thought, but it does have some great side quests and a lot of exploration without aimlessness. A relatively quick little adventure with hints of slap games as well as the puzzler aspects. Several in-game jokes about itself, too, which I appreciate. The main narrative moves pretty fast, so you can either ignore some of the main directives and take your time or loop back around and replay if you want to pick up all the side…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Was gonna make a post about the usual "thing" infecting more and more Godot add ons, but as tired of it as I am instead I'll focus on the fact I'm actually working on a game projet again, so thats nice! Keeping it simple, something Pikuniku inspired, we'll see how it goes lol

unlabelledView post →Playing Pikuniku and oh my goodness has it had moments that have made me laugh out loud. I look forward to Pikuniku 2. Star was right, this game is super fun.
unlabelledView post →quite possibly the best game to ever come out on steam, nothing beats this game. It truly was our pikuniku. the only sad part is that Goku was not implemented into the game. But other than that best game to come out on steam ever. The only thing that may actually rival this game is the soon to be coming out, Fish. But Pikuniku 2 will come out and will take the crown for best game on steam to date.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A game that reminds us that the solution to most problems in life is a swift kick.
