And even if a duck goes solo (years of living on precarious planets have turned the ducks into a somewhat callous people), remember that their is no escaping gravity and that one false move could bring your mission to a crashing conclusion. Space Ducks is a block pusher game with a bizarre theme. A pixelated duck is controlled by the player in an outer space looking background. The goal is to get the duck to a block that apparently fuels a spaceship, then maneuver the duck to the spaceship itself and launch away from the island of blocks. Space Ducks has a very arcade-like feel and is very pixelated in appearance.

There are no options in Space Ducks. Navigation of the duck is simply the arrow keys. There is an undo function that allows the player to undo moves all the way back to the beginning of a puzzle. There is also a retry function. There are no sound or graphics options. There is a constant arcade style background music that becomes a bit wearing after a while, it would be nice to be able to shut it off. As there are not much in the way of sound effects, turning the volume all the way down manually will do the job. The puzzle levels in Space Ducks seem to have one correct way to solve them, although a few appear to present alternative ways to complete the level. Maitetsu: Pure Station Switch

Once a level is completed successfully, there doesn’t seem to be a way to revisit the level to try an alternative. Many of the initial levels look deceptively simple, but the rules for Space Ducks are such that that the player will easily end up on a block that gets pushed off into space or crushed when a gap causes blocks to slam together. There is also the possibility of getting swept off into space if two group of blocks slam together. There isn’t a ‘push’ key, blocks are moved once when the duck moves onto a face. To move the same block again, the duck must be walked off of that block and back on. However, the moved block must end up attached to something or it will float off into space with the player on it. This leads to many dead-end situations.

In some cases, one or two undo’s may be all that is needed, but other times, the very first block moved was the problem. Most of the levels appear to have been made where a very precise move sequence is required to complete the puzzle. As such, Space Ducks is a very static (or linear) puzzler, like many block pushers. The price is reasonable and it appears to be bug free, it’s also a very small install. Space ducks is recommended for die-hard block pusher lovers. The controls and sound effect are so frustrating, it took me a few seconds to understand where I can walk and where I can’t­. When you can’t walk somewhere, there’s this really grating sound effect that I couldn’t endure playing so frigging loud. Mantis Burn Racing Switch NSP

It was such a pain. I don’t understand why you have to use the 4 directional keys when just left-right would have been enough. It just feels weird. The gameplay doesn’t make much sense with the whole gravity in it, it doesn’t seems consistent at all, making some moves more like guesses than anything else. I definitely didn’t enjoy my time with it. I don’t think I’ll try it another day. Space Ducks is a beautiful puzzle game with a short length and a pretty fair difficulty. Rather than being a grueling task that might make the player turn away like in so many other Sokoban games, this one helps the player along and makes a good entry point for this style.

Despite how quickly the game can be played, it’s very clear the developers wanted to have a distinct visual style, and I think it really increased the experience for me since it was very comforting. The audio design for the game also works well with the puzzle mechanics, which is always a pleasure to have intermingled. I also wish to mention that I played the game after the update was delivered; for my own playthrough, I found the movement to be rather crisp and satisfactory so it should be fine now for those who were bothered by slow ducks (now they’ll waddle quickly to their grave with a smile). The actual puzzle elements are pretty neat, they essentially work like traditional box pushing except you have a gravity element in place as well as the ability to utilize it yourself and walk on the sides of objects.

This becomes the main mechanic, though over time the game introduces at least 2 major new mechanics that are pretty interesting. The neat part of these puzzles is that none of them are super difficult, but each still manages to teach you a unique lesson. Another interesting aspect is that the puzzle titles actually provide some insight into what your goal should be, subtle hints like this I will always be a sucker for. Overall, I’m someone who would normally shy away from a game with a Sokoban tag, but this one actually grabbed my interest and held them all the way to the end. If you’re looking for a puzzle game on the easy side that’s completable in about an hour, then this is definitely worth picking up. Memories of East Coast Switch
