Review

Developed by the developers behind games like Limbo, Cocoon is a puzzle platformer where the player explores different alien worlds accessed through orbs. The player must navigate intricate puzzles using different abilities and mechanics.

The design and the art style of the game are both very clean and memorable, such as the different worlds each with distinct characteristics. The art style in particular is very simple and almost abstract in what it depicts. The core puzzle gameplay, however, is very intricate. I especially enjoyed the puzzles where the player must use the orbs to navigate into and through different worlds to progress. There are also boss fights which were on the easier side.
