unlabelledView post →In terms of the gameplay of SANABI, my first impression are: oh my goodness 🥹 this game is insane! This game is a 2D platformer, with the defining mechanic being the chain arm! While it might not sound crazy, it really makes the game, the combat is crazy fast and movement is super fun! It's awesome!
unlabelledView post →Even more good news - the Sanabi DLC is out, and it's free! And the game is on sale and EXCEPTIONALLY GOOD. A grappling hook precision platformer with a heavy story focus. It feels like a genuinely cool cyberpunk thriller with some good twists and turns. Big recommendation from me.
unlabelledView post →There are so many moments in this game that are absolutely breathtaking! This is the first time you see the city, and it left me in awe! From the transition to the ambience, the scene is set up perfectly and is so well executed! Game: SANABI by WONDER POTION (Nintendo Switch version)

unlabelledView post →My friend recommended me this game and so I was like "Oh alright! it seems pretty fun I'll check it out" and honestly I'm a sucker for game with grappling hook mechanics so it was definitely a steal for me. What I didn't expect is that for a game as simple as this, that I would be emotionally invested and eventually bawls my eyes out. In my 20 years of life I have barely cried over pieces of media, maybe like 2-3 times. And frankly this is the hardest I've cried at any sort of media, thank…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Greatest game i've ever played like actually everything about this game is perfect. Amazing story about a father on a quest for revenge with twists that are genuinely shocking. The music is unforgettable (And important to the story). Gameplay is simple yet so fun. I can see people not liking the amount of talking that's in this game but its the whole point of it. Wonder Potion created a masterpiece that i'll never forget. +THEY ARE RELEASING A FREE STORY DLC?! FREE? I WOULD GLADLY PAY MONEY FOR…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game needs to be made into a movie. The story is unreal. it has ups and downs, sad parts, beautiful moments, crazy plot twists. I cannot recommend this game enough!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Just to weigh out the Overwhelmingly Positive reviews, I have to put out a few caveats. This game is not for everyone and is very misleadingly marketed/advertised: - I hated the writing in this game. If you're not into corny anime family dialog (and a LOT of it), stay away from this game. It is not gritty or deep in any way. -I haven't timed it but it *feels* like the majority of this game is cutscenes. If you actually want to play and don't want a walking simulator, stay away from this…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not gonna lie I bought this game with intention of writing something like >mom can we have katana zero dlc >we have katana zero dlc at home >katana zero dlc at home And look at me now - after I swallowed the whole game in one go, and now sitting here crying like a little girl. What a pleasant surprise. TL;DR Game is good, despite everything would still recommend. Visuals, Narrative - 10/10, Gameplay 6-7/10 If you set emotions aside, the gameplay is probably the game’s weakest…

unlabelledView post →Stylish cyberpunk grapplinghook based platforming. If anything in that description appeals to you, give it a shot.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Huh. For reasons I shall not go into further, it was a real trip watching Worm Girl's dissection of Signalis, then picking a random game to play next and landing on Sanabi. Y'all should play Sanabi. There's a good chunk of fun game there, but it's structured much more like a film. It's very smart.
unlabelledView post →I went into this game not expecting much on the story front, and playing through the beggining of it I still didn't feel like it was going anywhere crazy, maybe just a cool reveal, but in the end I got the most emotional a game has ever made me, full on ugly crying, just for that I have to post this review The story is exceedingly good for what I would ever have expected from a platformer like this, I cannot recommend it enough, play it
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Writing this review at 4AM after finishing the game, because there's no way I could leave this without a thumbs up. An absolutely killer action-platformer with a mad fluid game loop, amazing visuals, superb music, and a genuinely beautiful story. Sale, full price, if you enjoy high-speed platforming or you just want an amazing story, getting this game is a no-brainer. I'm not a big platformer guy usually, but this game had me in a vicegrip beginning to end. The game's approach to combat…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →stressful ass goddamn game (affectionate) i'm really enjoying my time with SANABI [flashing lights warning]
unlabelledView post →Extremely tight controls, retro sidescrolling, fast paced combat, a surprisingly moving story, dope cyberpunk setting, and a banger ass soundtrack. This game is a 10/10 for me. If you like any of the genres above, it's entirely worth
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Even if every meeting ends with a farewell, I sincerely hope to return to this world again. This game was a revelation for me. I expected nothing more than a couple of good evenings, but it ended up being one of the best games I've discovered this year. Good luck to the developers, I'll be keeping an eye on your future releases.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Storytelling ? Soundtracks ?? Gameplay ??? Masterpiece. Masterpiece. Masterpiece. What a great indie game...woow!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Just came across this game on Steam. I was wary b/c of the massive anime tits, but this actually looks kinda cool...? 🤔 The big Contra-like background bosses are a neat addition. Judging from this and Sanabi, I guess people really want a grappling hook in these kinds of games.
unlabelledView post →Amazing game! The pixel graphics are so pretty and the gameplay is incredibly fun. If you like Katana Zero, this will scratch the same itch. Actual PEAK.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →finally remembered to post these! (because of release date announcement lol) no need for flowers and sanabi fan art for @megazumi-world.bsky.social's indie game splash zine looking forward to no need for flowers release 🥺 #noneedforflowers #nnff #sanabi
unlabelledView post →Well I'll just go over the game as a whole: I go off 5/10 being average, 6/10 being solid, etc. Gameplay - 7/10. I wouldn't write home about this one, it's nothing CRAZY. I think given the amount of content (which isn't a TON), it does just fine, and can get super fun in the last stretch when it's a bit more hands off and lets you just move fast and do cool tricks. Story - 7/10 - 10/10. It kinda depends on how much personal connection you have to the main themes. For me it was a 9/10; HIGHLY…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →One of my favorite stories in gaming. The combat is great too, but the story is the real standout here. Made me pretty teary eyed at the end. BUY IT
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great pixel game with a well written story and an awesome sound track. I do feel the climax of the game and pacing of the game got worse towards the end which made the game feel tedious and repetitive during the final chapter. Overall great game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →STREAM IS OVER!!! Believe it or not, we are still not done with SANABI... But the game is FANTASTIC! We had so many twists... Thank you to @supercatpunch.bsky.social @pendingfate.bsky.social and others for the raids!!! We sent love over to @kultofmany.bsky.social who is doing Art! 🧡 #vtuber
unlabelledView post →If you love action platformers with pitch perfect emotional narrative that will take you on a crazy journey and good music. this is a must play.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →On the whole, SANABI is quite a disjointed experience. It has both interesting gameplay and a somewhat captivating story. And yet, the marriage of those two elements is where this game flops for me. The gameplay in SANABI is quite unique when it comes to 2d platformers. The grappling hook, and it's momentum, are key to the platforming in SANABI. Momentum generation, preservation and expenditure is the main way by which you progress through the game. The combat is a natural extension of the…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →ITS JUST SO PEAAAK. Story goes so hard and the gameplay is so fun. I got to this game because of Katana Zero (another peak game check it out) and this one lived up to my hype for that game
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is like Katana Zero in the best way possible. The movement and combat mechanics are fluid and the story is so captivating. It just keeps pulling you in further until you reach the end and wish you could do it all again for the first time. 10/10 would've paid 40$ for this game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Excellent work of art, yes. The quality of the story, music & visuals is done with such level of care, delivering an extremely memorable experience. You think you can "guess" where the story is headed, and what the twists will be, but you're gonna be wrong. It plays with your expectations very well. The gameplay itself is fun, fluid, and fast. Clearly inspired by Katana Zero, Celeste, and making references to other media here and there, this game finds its own voice by having a very good blend…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →in nutshell - katana zero 2, but different plot and setting, same vibes and emotions, AND LLONGER, MUST TRY
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I may write a more detailed review in the future, but I have to praise this game. I played the game after reading reviews about this being one of the best games ever, and I really didn't hold it to that standard going in, but I thought maybe this will be good. I will say that after finishing it I concur wholeheartedly with it's universal praise. I mean what is this game? Hh..how did they do this? I have trouble explaining how much I enjoyed every aspect of this game. But I'll try. The game…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a "yes, but..." recommendation. Make sure you like platforming and swinging. The game starts so charming and colorful. Fantastic pixel art. Great warm fuzzy feelings in the tutorial area. Then they crush all your warm fuzzy feels flat with dark and gloom. Motivation and story telling. Okay. That's fine. The game is gritty and dark for a long while, which is fine, but it also feels a bit slow to progress through the next third or half of the game, to me. Each area adds complexity,…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Absolutely beautiful pixel art, a wonderful story and solid gameplay, I played on Veteran for most of it... the only negative for me was the escape the overseer part... there was practically 0 time for errors before you get flashed and have to restart from the last checkpoint(fortunately had many of them)... had to drop the difficulty there to get more time for that section. will be tackling the DLC shortly
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I do not usually like platformers but it was well paced and the story drove the game forward. It was an emotional journey and had me crying.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Sanabi is incredible, genuine 10/10 for me. Initially seems very inspired by Katana Zero but differentiates itself plenty. The gameplay is great, the story is great, its all great.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Amazing story along with very satisfying movement, I now understand why this game is tagged as story rich, and I don't need to describe it, just play and you shall see.

unlabelledView post →As someone who is in the "I finally have the money to buy all the games that I want, but I don't have the time to play them", these days I drop almost every game that I start. I unfortunately find most games mediocre, even the acclaimed ones. Yet I keep buying and trying new games, because sometimes I find true gems that are not like anything else, and the experience becomes unforgettable. SANABI is one of those games. I always thought of myself as a type of gamer that cares much more about the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Extraordinary story, good gameplay, and great atmosphere. Have not seen anything like it.

For some reason, my love for that game makes me excited for Replaced based off your convo
unlabelledView post →This game was really good. It is an action platformer, something adjacent to a "Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound" or such. There is a main game and free DLC. I'm writing a positive review due to the fact that I don't normally go out of my way to play these types of games. SANABI does not assume that you have maximum investment in what it's doing as a game. It manages this via difficulty modes, which does appeal to certain types of players. In the event that a game doesn't attempt to tune itself…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is hard to NOT recommend. A ton of work has clearly gone into the art and characters and satisfying movement but it's the level design that drags everything down. It goes from being fun and fast paced to a patient precision. Even the checkpoints are frequently just before a waiting portion of the screen. I think I would have loved this as a visual novel with flashy fights because everything else is genuinely great and its a shame I wont see it all naturally. it just has one critical flaw…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I hope that I am one of the first who passed the SANABI DLC 😁 It was a good one. Recommend to play game and also DLC 😎 #SANABI #SANABIDLC #GameDev #indiedev

I will 100% miss this game, it even got me to cry 🤣 Thank you to everyone who was there with me to the end! 🧡 We sent love over to @lilyavendera.bsky.social who's playing HSR! #vtuber
unlabelledView post →I got this game on sale even though I've never played a pixel game before. Man I was amazed at how good it is. It's a fast paced, story rich, Spider man swinging game that really shines with its story and depth. It was an amazing experience and it's crazy how emotional i got from a pixelated game.
