When they announced a port for the PSVR2 headset, we thought it was a natural fit, thanks to the new headset’s built technology for eye tracking. Since it’s available for a budget price, it’s worth a look if you enjoy the genre.ĭeveloper GoodbyeWorld Games and Skybound launched Before Your Eyes on Steam almost two years ago, and we remember seeing its announcement because it had such a novel idea to it – you control the game with nothing but the blinking of your eyes. If you look past the “dog in space” premise then Space Tail: Every Journey Leads Home is a fairly standard puzzle platformer, but it’s one that has more than enough charm for its 5 hour runtime, with an interesting story and a few decent puzzles to solve along the way. In addition, you can use familiar dog behavior like wagging your tail or rolling over to try and communicate with the aliens you run into – or just resort to barking if that doesn’t work. Bea can use her heightened sense of smell to navigate and find her way, but it’ll also tell her when there are toxins you should avoid. And as with most any good puzzle platformer, you’ll gradually learn new skills to use, keeping the puzzle gameplay feeling fresh across some well realized and diverse environments, ranging from industrial to lush over the course of the campaign.Īnd while some abilities are fairly standard for the genre, it’s the more dog-specific ones that stand out. Protagonist Bea finds herself amidst aliens and robots on her search to find her human friends again, and although the game initially looks like a typical 2D platformer the game’s puzzles make great use of some dog-specific capabilities. Released on Steam back in November by Enjoy Studio and Longterm Games, Space Tail: Every Journey Leads Home is now available on PlayStation and Xbox as well – bringing the puzzle platformer in which you star as a spacefaring canine to new platforms and audiences.
