Embark on a heartwarming mobile adventure with Thomas K. Young's latest creation, Be Brave, Barb! This charming cactus-themed platformer launches March 12th on iOS, Android, Steam, and Nintendo Switch. Prepare for a unique blend of gravity-defying platforming challenges and a deeply personal quest for self-confidence.

Be Brave, Barb cleverly intertwines the literal struggle against gravity with Barb's internal battles with self-doubt. Conquer 100 levels, boosting Barb's self-esteem with daily positive affirmations as you progress.

Epic boss battles await, alongside a quirky therapist whose questionable advice – underthinking as a cure for overthinking – might just be the key to defeating King Cloudy and his minions.
