Thomas K. Young has just announced an enchanting new mobile adventure that promises to be a ray of sunshine in the gaming world. The cactus-themed platformer, Be Brave, Barb, is set to launch on iOS, Android, Steam, and the Nintendo Switch on March 12th, and it's everything fans of the creator behind Dadish could hope for.
In Be Brave, Barb, players will navigate not only the challenges posed by gravity-based platforming but also confront their own inner insecurities—a poignant metaphor for overcoming what weighs us down. This life-affirming platformer focuses on the importance of self-worth, guiding Barb through a hundred unique levels to regain her lost confidence with daily doses of positivity.
The journey isn't without its trials, as players will encounter epic bosses intent on dampening Barb's spirits. Adding a quirky twist, Barb is advised by a therapist who suggests underthinking as a remedy for overthinking—a piece of advice that might raise eyebrows but could be the key to defeating King Cloudy and his minions.
