I had y'all fooled that it was a Sonic-like but in fact it's an Ecco-like.
This is NOT analog control stick, this is good ol' fashion 2-axis D-PAD gameplay! My goal was to surpass Ecco's smooth turns and responsiveness. Feels like I did.

Bobo Bay comes out NEXT Wednesday, April 29th!

Bobo Bay is a pet simulation game where you collect, mash(breed), accessorize, and train little creatures to compete in races and other competitions.
