Deputy Dangle

WOW I had a lot of fun with this one. It's like the love child of Mount Your Friends, I Am Bread, and Octodad. However, they learned the lesson from the others that frustrating controls isn't fun, while the chaos and silliness off your character flopping around is a LOT of fun.
It's not easy, oh no, but it doesn't have the horrible difficulty of those others. I'm early in still, but excited to keep going!

The best way I could describe this game briefly would be that it's a thrift store version of Octodad Dadliest Catch. It's cheaper, and a bit rougher around the edges, but it's still not a bad game necessarily. While I'd struggle to call it a great game, it's definitely a fun waste of time that's fairly brief and can be quite humorous at times. I like the wacky and cartoony aesthetic of the world this game takes place in (although some assets and characters look a little out of place thematically), and the characters are serviceable. Really the only thing I really hate about the game is the soundtrack. There's about 2-3 pieces of background music that you'll hear play on loop for about 90% of the game. Besides that, I'd call this game ok. It's not fantastic but it's not bad either.

Good game for fans of simulator games like Octodad or I am Bread.
Unskippable cutscenes were a bit annoying when I was replaying the game for the last achievements.

After 10 minutes of playing I feared this would be another disappointment like I Am Bread. As nice as the wackiness is, there needs to be some kind of reward for actually putting up with it. But there is! Deputy Dangle has great, imaginative levels. Think of something like Psychonauts. Overall, the sheer sense of curiosity for what the devs came up next makes it worth playing through until the end.
On the con side, very cheaply made (looks suspiciously like "My first Unity game"), bad performance in places, and some stages frag on little bit too long.

A solid game with active devs! Do you like fun? If yes, buy this game. Don't even question buying this game! Try it out for yourself!

Love the artwork and overall goofyness of the game. Reminds me of The Simpson's Road Rage game on PS2.
My son loves all the bright colors and the ragdoll. He watches all the games I play when I mirror them to the big screen, and he is never too impressed. Deputy Dangle made him laugh for 5 mins! Recommended.

I'm enjoying this game a lot. The mechanics work well, and I haven't experienced any game breaking bugs or other issues. It takes some time to get used to the controls but you get a rythem going fairly quickly. The story line is hilarious and it has interesting and unique characters. The game isn't the greatest thing ever but for what it is it's an excellant game (if that makes sense).
Highly recommend.
