Why play it

A vibrant sci-fi platform adventure game for the Game Boy Advance, where you help Maxwell the dog explore unfamiliar worlds, make strange new friends and contend with mysterious forces - by jumping, shooting, slicing, shrinking, warping and drilling.

Story and worldbuilding

Maxwell's homeworld is nearing collapse. In a last-ditch effort to find help, he hyperjumps where no dog has gone before. Stranded, he finds himself at the edge of a hostile system - if there's any hope of return and rescue he'll need every friend (and every weapon) he can find. Like all underdogs, the odds are stacked against him, but you can't keep a good dog down. Help Maxwell explore unfamiliar worlds, make strange new friends and contend with mysterious forces.

Goodboy Galaxy is a very well-done title. Despite the number of false stopping points, the overall adventure has some very memorable characters. The gimmick of constant equipment removal makes the adventure more thought-provoking instead of a slog, while the presentation is excellent, regardless of whether you opt for the PC-specific enhancements. For both genre fans and those who love more involved platformers, Goodboy Galaxy is well worth checking out.

Goodboy Galaxy is a wholesome platformer game that rewards friendship and has a lot of backtracking and a unique gameplay style that is challenging at times.
