A slightly bigger fish in a much bigger pond.
A small team originally released Tadpole Treble on Wii U among other platforms in 2016, and it was a tremendous game that was held back by the wasteland that the Wii U was five (or six, seven, eight…) years ago. The developers at BitFinity have returned for another performance five years later, and it’s still a fun game that didn’t come to Switch cleanly but is still worth your time.
.no comment.
Tadpole Treble features what has to be the youngest player character in gaming: you control a tadpole named Baton who is taken away by a pelican as soon as they come out of the egg. Their job is simple: get back home by swimming through a group of waterways. The path itself is laid out like a musical staff, complete with each level starting with a treble clef. As Baton swims, they have one move: a tail slap which runs off every button. The slap doesn’t affect the predators in the water, but can be used to hit reeds of bamboo or cymbals
