A calm, minimal platformer that shifts from relaxing to subtly tense as you navigate a colourful, surreal world of bouncing and rolling.

What players say
Players describe Parallels as a minimalist 2D platformer that is chill yet punishing. They praise the soundtrack but complain that checkpoints are too far apart, forcing restarts from the beginning, which quickly becomes repetitive. Some compare it to Flappy Bird or an endless runner.
