Shown off at the recent State of Play, Baby Steps is a new physics-and-coordination game from Bennett Foddy, Gabe Cuzzillo, and Maxi Boch. If you remember classics like QWOP or Getting Over It, you should know that Baby Steps is pretty much heading towards that legacy.

While observing the player character's amusing attempts to navigate simple terrain without stumbling over their own feet, it becomes evident that this promises to be an entertainingly vexing experience. The inclusion of humor may be a deciding factor for some, and personally I find it quite enjoyable. However, what truly piques my interest are the various obstacles, particularly the skateboard. The stage is perfectly designed to lead to a multitude of mishaps.


As it stands now, Baby Steps will be aiming for a Summer 2024 launch.
