Games that make you jump for joy, fall head over heels, or feel like you’re on top of the world are rare, and it’s even rarer that we get to write lines like these and mean every word – literally and metaphorically.
Stilt has a retro feel, despite running on the latest tech. This VR platformer feels like the lost sequel to PS1’s Jumping Flash, a similarly kooky concept that saw you bound across floating platforms, your huge robo-rabbit feet occasionally intruding into the bottom of the screen. But Stilt takes the idea and runs, well… jumps, with it. Your arms become legs with springs, and a forceful downward push and flick of the wrist bounces you skywards.
