Game Informer has launched a new feature called Spotlight to showcase remarkable games that may otherwise be overlooked. One standout title featured is Bionic Bay, which offers a unique experience through its physics-based platforming set in a bizarre alien biomechanical environment. Players assume the role of a scientist navigating cunningly designed obstacles that require clever use of a gadget to manipulate objects. Showcasing innovative gameplay mechanics, Bionic Bay promises a fresh adventure with engaging challenges and generous respawn options to ease player frustration during trial-and-error sequences.
The platforming feels great and deceptively precise despite how floaty the scientist feels, and tricky obstacles made every edge-of-my-seat jump feel achieved by the skin of my teeth.
A special gadget that lets you switch places with certain objects is a simple mechanic used in increasingly clever ways, such as stacking boxes to reach high perches or using objects as protective cover.
