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

Embark on a heartwarming mobile adventure with Thomas K. Young's latest creation, Be Brave, Barb! This charming cactus-themed platformer launches March 12th on iOS, Android, Steam, and Nintendo Switch. Prepare for a unique gameplay experience blending gravity-defying platforming challenges with a deeply personal quest for self-confidence.

Be Brave, Barb isn't just about navigating tricky levels; it's about confronting inner insecurities. As Barb, you'll traverse 100 levels, each designed to boost your self-esteem with daily positive affirmations. The journey won't be easy, though. Epic bosses stand in your path, and your therapist's questionable advice might leave you scratching your head (underthinking as a solution to overthinking? Really?).
