Tinboy is a simple puzzle platformer where your movement is tied to bow and arrows. You have a regular arrow useful for making short platforms, a rope arrow to let you swing and pull objects, and a bomb arrow to knock things around, Tinboy is mostly invincible, you only lose if you fall off the map, but that will happen very often as you try to figure out the trick to solving each stage.
The stages get brutally difficult very fast and you need to be clever in order to solve many of them, luckily they do give you unlimited stages skips if you jump to the main menu. The game itself does need a bit of polish, the arrow firing mechanism is janky when trying to aim spinning wildly in all directions, but your not constrained by ammo so I can forgive that. Overall I enjoyed my playthrough.
