Is It Any Good?
PARACUTE is not one of those ironically cutesy games in which a teddy bear shoots zombies or mauls campers -- it's genuinely kid-friendly. With simple back-and-forth controls, you guide your teddy bear down to a safe landing on a plush pillow. If you hit an obstacle on the way, the chute will rip and the teddy will plummet faster, but you can still guide him safely to the pillow if you've got the skill for it. And if he misses his soft landing spot, he will end up in a sad looking heap, but there's nothing too traumatic about it, as he is just a plush toy.
