TheXboxHubDarren EdwardsFeb 20264/5 starsOn balance I very much enjoyed Baseless and I honestly can’t pick many faults at all. However, the strenuous gameplay will prove make or break for some, especially when the control niggles only make things more problematic.

Cubed3Coller EntragianDec 20258/10Baseless' main mechanic takes getting used to. There is no way around that. Anyone who plays it on its own terms and learns to harness the physics will find it rewarding. Most of the time, using a high-powered space gun to control movement feels like trying to tame a wild beast. It's understandably unwieldy, yet mastering it under one's dominion is a euphoric rush.

So Many GamesDavid EchevarríaJan 20263.5/5 starsThis is an inventive and ambitious platformer built around a striking movement system that turns shooting into traversal, rewarding precision, experimentation, and patience once it clicks. Its colourful presentation, varied encounters, and flexible upgrade systems show clear confidence and creativity, but the demanding movement and uneven difficulty curve can make the experience feel more punishing than inviting at times. While Assist options help smooth some of those edges, Baseless remains a game that asks a lot of its players and will resonate most with those willing to fully commit to mastering its systems.
