Overall: Pitfall Planet is a good game. I'd estimate a 4.5 hrs play time for a first run.
Art: Good, lays out the puzzles nicely.
Music: Great, really sets the mood and is memorable.
Controls: Spot on, walking feels free and lining up throws is easy.

Pitfall Planet is game where you solve puzzles in order to collect gold. Most of the puzzles are about how to get from point A to point B. Effectively exploring the level and collecting the gold along the way. Sometimes there's boss battles, which are nice to highlights of the game. The difficultly curve feels natural, starting off easy and progresses to hard. The first half of game takes about an hour to finish, but the difficult puzzles of the second half, took about 3 to 4 hours (In my first play through).

The game is beautiful, the screen shots don't do it justice, I'm a fan of the clean and smooth surfaces. Each level has details in the right spots. There's a cute side story that give a window into the planet before the game's events. The sound track sets the mood appropriately. The songs are mostly chill beats I could hum along with and they put the pressure on for the action levels.

I've played through the game solo. If you use the single controller option you can play both characters at once. To get the most out the game you should play with a friend. Being able to see the look of rage on a friends face when you throw them into lava, or onto a monster is priceless.

Occasionally my brain misjudges how far apart platforms are from one another. And it can be hard to tell if there's an invisible wall to save you from falling off a part of the map or not. In general, it's pretty good about having safety nets where you'd need them.
