"Be Brave, Barb: New Platformer Encourages Fighting Literal and Figurative Challenges"

May 20,2025 Author: Finn

Thomas K. Young has announced a delightful new mobile adventure, and it's a truly beautiful day for gamers. The cactus-themed platformer, Be Brave, Barb, is set to launch on iOS, Android, Steam, and the Nintendo Switch on March 12th. This game embodies the creative spirit fans of Dadish have come to love.

In Be Brave, Barb, players will navigate not just the challenges of gravity-based platforming but also confront their own inner insecurities. The game cleverly intertwines literal and metaphorical obstacles, making it a unique journey of self-discovery. As you progress through a hundred diverse levels, you'll help Barb rebuild her self-confidence, reinforced by daily positive affirmations.

The adventure isn't without its trials, as epic bosses and a quirky therapist await. The therapist's unconventional advice—suggesting underthinking as a cure for overthinking—adds an intriguing twist. While this approach might raise eyebrows, it's all part of the charm and strategy needed to defeat King Cloudy and his minions.
