Struggling
A physics-based coop game where each player controls one of the arms of a hideous thing. You will go on a journey full of absurd encounters to find the abomination gods and receive their blessings. At long last a game that lets you incarnate a screeching pile of flesh!

Review coverage
Critic signal strength
Numeric critic scoring uses full scored reviews once available. Review-in-progress scores act as temporary early signal only until full review scores exist. Unscored reviews still count as coverage, but they are not included in the critic average.
