    140 is the scientific definition of a platformer. It is cold, brutal, elegant and beautiful in a mathematic way.

    With its beat, pounding in the head and on the skin, 140 proves once again what the indie scene is about. Jeppe Carlsen creates a wonderful experience and delivers what is more than a game: a love declaration to music and genius.

    140 is a magnetically moreish experience: delicately balanced and well thought-out. If this is what the programmer can achieve during the downtime from his day job, Playdead’s enigmatic second project can’t come soon enough.

    Top notch platforming mechanics combined with a brilliantly captivating soundtrack that seamlessly meshes with the unique visuals and gameplay turn it into an experience that shouldn’t be missed. 140 is gaming minimalism done right — just don’t expect it to last you very long.

    140 is a masterful, mentally stimulating platformer with a distinct visual and aural style.

    Though the brutal rise in difficulty near the end mars the adventure, it doesn't ruin the overall mood, and the cover charge is more than reasonable for this particular night at the club. Grab a colorful cocktail and head to the dance floor!

    This game is basically an art piece. I don't think I'd classify it as a puzzle platformer, it's basically a funky sidescrolling platformerThis game is basically an art piece. I don't think I'd classify it as a puzzle platformer, it's basically a funky sidescrolling platformer with artsy abstractness and funky techno music. I wouldn't recommend it unless you're into that sort of thing.… Expand
