Poinpy, a mobile game, has been re-released on iOS and Android platforms. The game was initially launched in 2022 as a Netflix exclusive but was removed from the streaming service's lineup in June of the previous year, rendering it unplayable for over a year.
The game is now available completely free of charge. This re-release includes no microtransactions or advertisements, making the full game accessible to all users without additional costs.
Developed by Ojiro Fumoto, Poinpy is a roguelite platformer. Players jump and bounce upwards through procedurally generated environments, collecting specific fruits to create juice for a hungry beast that follows them. The game involves chaining jumps, restoring jump orbs by stomping on enemies, and unlocking permanent upgrades and power-ups for each run.
Poinpy is described as a "colorful inversion" of Fumoto's earlier game, Downwell. The game features illustrations by Error403 and a soundtrack composed by Calum Bowen.
