KeyWe, developed by Stonewheat & Sons and published by Fireshine Games, is a charming and delightful cooperative puzzle-platformer that combines adorable characters, clever mechanics, and a quirky setting to create a truly heartwarming gaming experience.

Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
Dash is not used at all which is a shame, I feel if they would move it to the B key on the controller it would be better as well as give it some gameplay purpose other than mobility like pushing boxes, and a better animation to give it some weight.
