Which is handy, seeing as some of the putties you'll need to rescue have found themselves barricaded inside sandbag fortresses (which can only be destroyed using Nitro (another collectible), or the aforementioned rockets), while some enemy pups have also taken up their own defensive emplacements throughout the levels. Sadly, there's only one enemy in the levels you can do this with - a red, rocket firing suit of armour, and it would have been nice to see this taken further, but if nothing else, it at least gives you some explosive ordnance to use. Much like the other, more famous blob, Kirby, your blob of putty can swallow and absorb certain enemies, before using their power against them.

Whether you're zapping your enemies with an electric finger, or firing off a little, explosive version of yourself at enemies, figuring out how to pick each of the enemies off without ending up surrounded is key to your success, as you only have a limited number of lives, and can only take a few hits.

Pressing L1 or R1 lets you attack your enemies, with your attack being upgraded the more stars you collect throughout the levels. With solid resistance from the game's baddies, it's a good job your putty has plenty of tricks up his sleeves, too, even if he doesn't technically have real arms. With the putties you need to rescue being scattered across the levels, figuring out how to get to each of them is half of the challenge, whether you're using your Putty-ness to squeeze through walls, up ladders, or lower yourself down onto a platform.

In fact, rather than simply asking you to get from A to B, the levels here are effectively free form, with no set route from one end to the other. However, while it may have its roots in the past, Putty Squad is far from a bog-standard platformer.

Along the way, you'll be lambasted by flying dogs, attacked by skateboarding, wise-talking cats, and shot at by a German carrot with a machine gun that screams "Achtung" before firing off a few shots. All he has to do is make his way through the level, and collect the friendly red balls of putty (by absorbing them, no less), before hot footing it to the exit. An incredibly retro themed platformer, Putty Squad is a game the likes of which are incredibly rarely seen today - a game about a little, squishy ball of putty, that has a fairly simple task. Reworked from the original Amiga code, Putty Squad has been brought back from the dead (can it be dead if it was never born?) for today's latest hardware, leading the charge on the Playstation 4, with versions for the PC, PS3, PS Vita and Xbox 360 also in development.
