A game by Daniel A. Ramirez for PC, Switch, PS4, Xbox One, and iOS, originally released in 2019.
Whipseey and The Lost Atlas is a cute and colorful platformer starring Alex, a boy who is pulled into another world by way of a mysterious book. Once in this world, Alex finds his body transformed, shrinking him down into a cutesy pink creampuffy creature named Whipseey. Fortunately, the distressed Whipseey immediately meets a princess who hands him a pink whip and sends him out to complete his quest… which apparently has something to do with a lost atlas, but that’s not actually clear in the wordless and minimal story.
Whipseey and The Lost Atlas hangs its hat on the nostalgia invited by its bright and colorful world, adorable character designs, and whimsical soundtrack, as the player travels across five themed lands. Whipseey has a high variable jump and is able to use his whip to attack enemies (of course), and holding the JUMP button while falling allows him to spin the whip over his head like a helicopter, slowing his descent. In a few areas, there are floating rings which may be grappled, allowing him to swing through the air and cross gaps.
