Introduction

If you’re looking for a game that’s equal parts geometric shapes, dancing, and soul-crushing frustration, welcome to the world of '140'. This platformer is not just a test of your gaming skills but also a way to remind you of that one time in gym class when you embarrassingly tripped over your own shoelaces, except this time you can blame it on the music!

Gameplay

So, what exactly is '140'? Picture this: you control colorful geometric shapes that change form depending on what they’re doing—like a transformer, but instead of a cool car that shoots lasers, you get a square that jumps in rhythm to an electronic beat. The challenge is synching your jumps and movements with the pulsating soundtrack. It’s like trying to walk in beat at a party where everyone else is somehow dancing and you’re just awkwardly bobbing your head. Collect colorful balls that activate platforms, and watch as the level morphs visually and musically (imagine a rave but with way less confetti and way more brain-squeezing challenges). Your mission? Get to the end of the course without smashing your face into too many obstacles. And yes, that’s easier said than done—because Platforms are all rhythmically challenged shapes that may or may not disappear at the worst possible time.

Graphics

Now let’s talk about the aesthetics, because they’re as minimalistic as your last Tinder date’s conversation skills. The game bursts forth with vibrant colors, crisp shapes, and smooth animations, resembling a digital art exhibit where you’re both the viewer and the exhibit getting crushed by geometric enemies. The simplicity is stunning, like a master chef who serves you a single sous-vide carrot and makes you believe it’s culinary art. Each level has its unique visual style, and the sound design is a glorious mesh between melody and chaos, pushing you to dance in your seat even as you fling your controller in rage. Just don’t let your parents catch you being that emotional about a bunch of pixels!

Conclusion

'140' is a unique mix of platforming and music that’ll test your reflexes, rhythm, and resilience! While it may take you on a rollercoaster of frustrations and epic triumphs—like that weird sock that always seems to vanish in the laundry—it delivers an engaging experience that’s genuinely fun. If you’re the type that can handle a good challenge and loves music that feels like a techno party in your ears, grab your Switch and dive into this world of shapes! Just remember: it’s not you failing the levels, it’s the shapes being utterly unforgiving. Cheers!
