balan wonderworld

A platforming video game developed by Arzest and Balan Company, published by Square Enix, and released for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch, and PC on March 26, 2021.

Despite seemingly having a dream team behind the game with Sonic creator Naka Yuji helming the project as director, Ooshima Naoto providing original character designs, and Square Enix's trademark CGI cutscene quality, the game was largely criticized upon release due to it's questionably simple gameplay, useless powerups, and subpar level design.
