Pellet Packer: Cookie Crunch is an odd platformer where you have to take out six Chaser Defenses in each level in order to make it to the next one. After every four levels is a boss fight. The controls can be really strange at first, but thankfully there is a prepackaged manual on the title screen that explains everything.
It's a really unique concept in the way it plays. I haven't seen many games lately that have a free-floating mouse be a huge part of the control scheme, especially for a platformer. The main platforming levels were interesting, occasionally adding new mechanics/cookies to the mix. The boss fights felt totally different from the rest of the game, as Chomper is free-floating throughout, collecting cookies to shoot at the Chaser while you have to keep track of a lot of things on the screen, including boxes to click, and in later fights, projectiles and more chasers. While only taking me a few attempts, they can get frustrating.
I was able to get through everything in a few hours. Overall it was a fun time, but sometimes I felt the boss fights were a bit frustrating and the first set of postgame levels seemed a little flat compared to the earlier ones.
