Gebub's Adventure

Gebub's adventure is a very calming fun little platformer. I originally picked up this game as a joke with it's silly name, but I was pleasantly surprised that I really enjoyed the adventure. It's very simple, and once you beat it there's little left. While it lasts Gebub's Adventure is a pleasure to play.

Oh my goodness, this has got to be one of the best Steam games ever. Let me start by saying this is not just a game that will capture the curiosity of a child, it is an amazing "boredom-buster" for adults as well. Today I was hunting for a game that would keep my mind busy and entertained, while my best friend was having a medical procedure done in the hospital. I was extremely nervous and scared, as soon as I started this game up; I was at peace in a heaven-like, dream-like wonderland. The music is absolutely amazing! First thing that came to my mind was "wow this game looks like a dream!" and it is! There is simply no downside to this game, you CAN NOT die! Despite some creatures that may seem a little scary and might make frightening noises, you will soon find that you must be somehow dreaming as nothing is really lethal and scary. There are dozens of items that need hunting for you to move on, so you will soon find yourself going on a treasure hunt. You never know what you...

It's criminal this game has just 13 reviews, so I'm going to do my part to fix that. Gebub's Adventure is a delightful light platformer that lasts about 60-90 minutes. You play as Gebub, an orb-egg thing, who needs to explore the world and collect orbs and make friends with various animals. The whole game is hand drawn, there are a bunch of different areas, the platforming is quite light and friendly, and there are no enemies. This is the perfect palate cleanser after a long or tough game. The art is adorable, the music is lovely, the environments are fun, there are lots of different little things to discover (I loved the roach catapult, I loved the mole family portrait, I loved the little guy who rescues you when you fall off a ledge in purple zone). Just a dense, fun, little thing! Highly recommended, and at $2.99 on sale ($4.99 regular), you could even buy a couple copies for friends!

This is going to be an unusual review. I bought this game expecting not to like it. I bought it because, from the screenshots, it looked extremely similar to Seiklus, one of my favorite freeware homebrew adventures. I've put in the time to complete it (about three hours). How do I feel about it now? Gebub's Adventure is far too close to call it merely "inspired by" or simply an homage, but it is distinct enough not to be a knockoff or remake. It's more like a reboot: knowingly and consciously derived from and incorporating elements of the original, but giving it a new spin. You start off in a grassy field populated with harmless widlife and oversized, climbable plants. It's immediately clear that your mission is to find all of the green orbs. You travel to other realms with other colors of orbs - a gray cavern populated by ghosts; a brown underground lit with lava; an undersea area populated by fish; the inside of a tree; a desolate, snowly landscape; a castle; and the inside of a ...

A very entertaining and relaxing game. Great music and soothing graphics.

An easy platformer with no fail state. Cute and fun.

Much more charming than you'd think, and with an excellent classical music soundtrack. Easily worth playing. :)

This is really one amazing game :) Its not very long but its worth the money, everything is perfect in it :) I highly recommend it :) especially if you are a big fan of Seiklus ;)

cute fun and relaxing platformer. would reccomend to anyone.

The charming quality in this game comes from each minor interaction with all of game's tiny inhabitants. There is something delightful in hopping along in puddles with frogs, sitting by a fire as little beetles roast marshmallows, or startling a star-gazing cloak-thingy as Gebub the slightly perplexed animated something-or-other waddles past. I spotted this game by coincidence soon after it's release, and I'm glad I did. The game is perhaps just slightly priced at more than it offers, even to those who are enticed by the soothing imagery and the saccharine, primordial sadness of misplaced childhood, which the game does so effectively deliver over a period of approximately two hours. Gebub's Adventure is an injection of emotions akin to rediscovering a forgotten teddy bear shoved to the back of a closet.
