The Static

The Static has an incredible aesthetic--great art design. dreamy, haunting, ethereal world. The game plays nicely (using a PS controller). I am finding myself challenged over and over again, which i appreciate. At least it's a beautiful fall when you miss!

The Static is a stunning breath of fresh air in the modern gaming climate. To call it more than simple would be an exaggeration, yet much like hit indie game Celeste, it's about what you can do with that simplicity, and the answer is a lot. The Static will take you from pure bliss through fun, relaxing levels, all the way to challenges difficult enough to make you take deep breaths before your controller ends up "non-functional". And it does this while never leaving you in a place where you feel left out to dry. Because The Static is fun, relaxing, rewarding game that's just a pleasure to experience because of great visuals and fantastic music that is only getting better from here, you should get it right now and be a part of its growth!

I've been waiting for this one for quite a while! I think it's very promising, but has quite a way to go. The controls feel floaty and sluggish, but the levels are well-designed. Visually it's really pretty, and very cute, and the audio is excellent. I am going to recommend this, as it's an early access title that can (and will) only get better with consistent player feedback.

The Static is a cozy 3D platformer that delivers a warm sense of nostalgia around every corner. From the use of retro technology, to the familiar-yet-unique soundtrack, this game makes you feel like you're a kid again - playing games like Crash Bandicoot and Super Mario for the first time. By far the two strongest aspects of The Static are its beautifully unique art style and its satisfying movement system. When it comes to the characters and the ambiance, there really isn't anything quite like it. As nostalgic as this game feels, it never fails to remind you that this world is its own and you've never seen anything like it. The player's primary objective is to use a variety of movement abilities and power-ups to traverse a handful of unique levels, all the while defending yourself from dangerous enemies and rescuing your ghostly neighbors. You will find yourself replaying the game just so you can see if there's a faster way to beat a level. No two playthroughs are the same, and...

Help. It's Monday and I have work but I'm stuck on this crazy fun game! Games like should not be allowed to be released on a workday. The aesthetics are what drew me. I have been waiting for this game since the developers were showing their development on Instagram. The music is relaxing to listen to and ties well with all the levels.

I love the nostalgic, deceptive whimsy of this game. It's so creative--a great escape.

If you’re a fan of 3D platformers, The Static is an absolute gem that delivers both challenge and fairness—something rare in the genre. What truly sets this game apart is its unique visual style and cohesive design. Every element feels purposeful, creating a seamless and memorable experience. The art direction and aesthetic are like nothing I’ve seen before, giving it a standout identity. The music also deserves praise. When you’re spending hours mastering tricky jumps and exploring vibrant worlds, great audio matters—and here, the soundtrack strikes the perfect balance: catchy yet easy on the ears. Despite being early access, the game runs impressively well—even on my 6-year-old self-built PC—proving that it’s optimized and stable. I’ve been following this project for a while now, and it’s clear the developer is dedicated to improving and expanding it further. If you’re looking for a fun, polished 3D adventure platformer with a fresh style, The Static...

I absolutely adore this game! It's hard to put into words just how much joy it brings me. Not only is it created by a dear friend, but the game itself is a true gem that’s an absolute pleasure to play. From the very first moment, I was hooked—it's like stepping back in time to the golden age of platformers. The game captures that delightful, nostalgic charm of the classic N64 and PS1 platformers we all know and love. There’s something so special about the way it blends old-school vibes with modern gameplay mechanics. It’s a refreshing reminder of the excitement and magic of gaming from those iconic eras. Whether you’re a longtime fan of the genre or just looking for a fun new experience, this game is an absolute must-play. It’s a perfect combination of heart, creativity, and I can't wait to see what comes next!

The Static is the most fun I’ve had playing a platformer in years. It balances fun, addicting gameplay with an increasing level of challenge that pushes you without frustrating you. But for me the best thing about it is the vibes. The Static takes place in a truly unique world, with an aesthetic and soundtrack that feels familiar and wholly original all at once. Everything is soaked in this neon glow that is like eye candy and the music slaps. Highly recommend.

This is an amazing cozy platform game. This game does an amazing job at balancing chill and challenging game-play. The controls are very user-friendly and easy to learn, but the levels have unique themes and mechanics to them that add an extra layers of complexity. You can also either go at your own pace or challenge yourself by getting all collectibles/fast level clear times. The environments are also very mesmerizing and have vibrant color palettes. There are so many places to get some cool, aesthetic views and photos from. Overall, this game was very enjoyable, and I can't wait to continue playing this game and see some of the new levels later on!
