Author:Kristen Update:May 20,2025

If you're a fan of the beloved Dadish series, you're in for a treat with Thomas K. Young's latest release, Be Brave, Barb! This gravity-bending platformer sends you on an exhilarating adventure as Barb, the courageous cactus, on a mission to conquer King Cloud and his minions. With a unique twist on traditional platforming, you'll use gravity to leap from platform to platform, dodging obstacles in a style reminiscent of the cult classic Gravity Rush.

Be Brave, Barb isn't just about the thrill of the jump; it's also packed with 100 challenging levels, five formidable bosses, and what the developers humorously refer to as "questionable therapy." This game is perfect for both fans of the Dadish series and platforming enthusiasts looking for something new. Plus, it comes with controller support and features those comfortably crunchy retro graphics that Thomas K. Young is known for.
