You play as a two wheeled robot that is sent to different planets to find certain materials that can be found over the level. You firstly have a cannon which can fire at different enemies across the levels, However, the main aspect of the game is to use your gravity gun. You use it to move loose parts of the ground and by doing so reach parts of the level to continue. On some parts of the game I had major problems trying to continue as some of the levels very difficult and time consuming, but the game is rather long and deserves credit to the creators.LankeyGamingHD

When I actually played BEEP, i was surprised that it didn't cost more.The game has so much character and theme about it. Despite "hearing about" problems with performance, I and everyone I know who has it, runs the game fine at a smooth 60FPS. The game is mostly Physics/Puzzle platforming, and it pulls it off excellently. The controls are incredibly responsive so it's very easy to feel like BEEP is an extension of yourself. Unlike other puzzle platformers, BEEP doesn't feel like a sprite sliding along surfaces when you move. BEEP is very well "stuck in" the environment and you always feel totally in control which, considering the genre, is absolutely critically important.The Anti-grav gun for picking up objects is one of the core "themes" of the game. A few things that impressed me here is that you can pick up just about anything (rocks, dead bodies) and use them for cover OR throwables. Even the enemies that aren't supposed to be moveable can be moved if you're creative enough, and another is that you can pick up objects grabbing specific points, for example, picking a block up at its center makes it slightly more luggy to move around but picking it up on the corner is slightly more maneuverable(sp?). One part that I've been itching to comment on is the audio. The soundtrack is very catchy, the sound effects fit the theme extremely well and there are other little quirks such as when using the gravity gun, the greater the range away from BEEP, the higher frequency the sound, and it also pans the sound to the sides depending on where the cursor is on screen. Small quirks like this really show that the developer cared about every aspect of the final product. To summarize: Beep is an incredible game, especially for it's price. Good audio, good performance, fun puzzles, good theme, great for all ages, and very nicely packaged into a safe and very (i mean VERY) portable game. I'd recommend it to ANYBODY.

This is just one of those games where you can tell games journalists, the so called "professionals" are full of it, likely full of the moneyThis is just one of those games where you can tell games journalists, the so called "professionals" are full of it, likely full of the money they're stuffed with to write their reviews, something that indie developers can't do. Look at those reviews, just look at them, now compare those with reviews from the same sources of puzzle games with AAA puzzle games that are markedly worse. - This is a fantastic little game, it has character, and it has charm, the developers clearly cared about what they were creating and the puzzles are a lot of fun. What we need to realise is that we don't need a commercially branded character to enjoy a game or find a cute little game hero charismatic. It's just kind of sad that this game is getting 70%s instead of 90%s because the character is an unknown rather than, say, Mario or Pokemon. What a sad state of affairs.

Graphically Beep is quite simple, but you know from the start that its physics and gameplay will force you to play level after level. The control system it's not customizable as we would have liked, but aside from that, Beep it's a worthy new asset in the ever growing Steam indie scene.
