What players say

Players call KByte a short but solid retro platformer that mimics different gaming eras, though they are split on whether the level design stays interesting. Many praise the second character's gravity-flip mode as a highlight, the soundtrack as unexpectedly good, and the developers for fixing issues, but a few find the gameplay dull or the difficulty uneven.
