Be Brave, Barb is an upcoming platformer that encourages you to battle against what literally and figuratively brings you down

Conquer gravity and self-doubt in Be Brave, Barb, the charming new mobile adventure from Thomas K. Young! This cactus-themed platformer launches March 12th on iOS, Android, Steam, and Nintendo Switch, offering a delightful blend of challenging gameplay and heartwarming self-discovery.

Prepare for gravity-defying platforming challenges as you guide Barb through 100 levels, helping her overcome inner insecurities. The game cleverly intertwines literal and figurative obstacles, mirroring Barb's journey to self-acceptance. Each level provides a daily dose of positive reinforcement, boosting Barb's – and your – self-confidence.

Expect epic boss battles against King Cloudy and his minions, and prepare for some… unconventional therapy. Your therapist's advice might be questionable (underthinking as a cure for overthinking?), but hey, if it helps defeat the bad guys, we're not judging!
