The accessible difficulty level comes to an abrupt end with the final boss, who forces you into repeated patterns of precision jumping that are both aggravating and incongruous. Yet, despite ending on a sour note, About a Blob is a very palatable adventure. The light puzzle and platforming challenges come at a good pace and will likely retain your interest in the hours it takes to complete the game. About a Blob won't wow you, but its interesting mechanics and silly attitude are enough to entertain.
Game Informer - One of this year's indie breakout games in DrinkBox Studios' Guacamelee, which is one of the best reviewed games of the year. However, don't sleep on the studio's first game, Tales From Space: About a Blob, an inventive platformer.
Game Chronicles - Imagine, if you will, a whimsical blend of Katamari Damacy’s item collection and Gish’s liqud platforming, with a little of Metroid’s power-based exploration and Yoshi’s Island egg-tossing thrown in for kicks. That’s roughly the kind of experience you’ll get out of Tales from Space: About a Blob, from DrinkBox Studios. In About a Blob, you control the titular blob.
