What is Tinykin?
Tinykin is a third-person 3D puzzle platformer about Milo, who arrives on Earth to find himself ant-sized, everyone gone, and time seemingly stuck in 1991. You explore an ant-sized metropolis, navigate platforms, and solve puzzles while looking for a way home.

- +you enjoy exploring everyday spaces from a tiny perspective
- +you like lighthearted, single-player platforming and collecting
Not for you if...
