Ynglet is an experimental and artistic indie game that reimagines platforming by removing traditional platforms entirely, letting you jump, dash, slide, bounce, and float through an abstract, ethereal sky while engaging with a dynamic, reactive music-driven world. Developed by Swedish indie creator Nifflas and published by Akupara Games, Ynglet blends fluid movement, surreal visuals, and musical interaction into an experience that feels more like dancing through sound and color than traditional gameplay.
Instead of solid ground, you navigate interconnected floating bubbles and slipstreams, exploring dreamy landscapes teeming with unusual creatures and shapes drawn in hand-sketched art that evokes absent-minded doodles brought to life. Every action you take— from bouncing off reflective pads to gliding through open space—adds to a reactive soundtrack, making each run uniquely musical. Quick respawns and a flexible difficulty allow both casual exploration and challenging precision runs. With overwhelmingly positive player feedback on Steam and praise for its aesthetic and inventive mechanics, Ynglet is a brief yet memorable indie adventure for those who enjoy rhythm, art, and movement combined.
