Probably the best feeling and designed platformer I have played, which is no small claim. The controls are so fluid and responsive it puts nearly everything else to shame IMO. Art is great. Level design can be devilish but instant respawns make it not super frustrating.

Gameplay:
The End Is Nigh is a sprawling adventure platformer where the player takes control over Ash, one of few "things" that have "survived" the "end of the world".
Follow Ash as he flops his way through a future of pain and suffering. Feel his stress levels rise as you throw him into an endless swarm of decaying, mutant animal-like creatures and help aid his final epic quest... to simply make a friend (out of pieces of people he finds along his journey).
Oh, also you collect video game cartridges and tumors! if that does anything for ya.
Features:
- 600+ levels!
- 12+ explorable chapters!
- 20+ collectible and fully playable mini game cartridges! (each with their own tiny achievements!)
- 80+ achievements that will make you feel good about yourself
- 100s of collectible little squishy tumors!
- loads of hidden extras and endings that you will probably see someone else find before you do!
- and stress!

User Reviews
Definitely worth getting, all those reviews talking about hating the game being positive should be saying something
Insanely difficult game, but offers so many collectables and chapters to complete, very rewarding when you get it down!
fucking love this game dude
yes
this game makes me suicidal i hate it so fucking much
super meat boy's better (maybe a hot take?) counterpart. do not try to 100% this game though you will go insane from how difficult some of the achievements are.
Better than super meat boy. But too damn hard.
The end is nigh is one hell of a platformer. It's been polished to a sheen to be rough and only get rougher as you go. So if you're looking for a challenge with some really incredible remixes of tons of classical music to enjoy as you suffer then this is the game for you! Enjoy your time with Ash try to push to the end and don't feel the need to go for iron god. Some suffering is worth it, and some is not lmao.
AAAAAAAAH!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAHHH WHY AAAAAAAAAAAAA IT BURNS HELP ME
