Thankfully, Bread & Fred does have several options to make the game more approachable - one crucial example is a checkpoint system that you can turn on in the options menu. What looks to be simply jumping over gaps is made complicated by the short rope. The platforming looks relatively simple, but deceptively so.

Actions like basic jumps to a nearby platform require a level of coordination sometimes hindered by stream latency and potential lag in voice chat. I can only take a step or two until the rope goes taught, and I’m stuck in place until my partner makes progress on their end.
It’s a game that’s perfect for the internet in the same ways Fall Guys or Overcooked are: It requires skill, but even the worst players are rewarded with slapstick animations of squished penguins and hilarious falls.

Think of this story as the rope tying us together to bring you our thoughts on the game’s chaotic platforming. So, Ana and I (Nicole) are taking on our impressions together, as a team. In Bread & Fred, you’re tied to another penguin by a very short rope, and you’ll need some serious teamwork to make the climb.
