Part Time Lover: How Part Time UFO Gets Mobile Gaming Right

Part Time Lover: How Part Time UFO Gets Mobile Gaming Right

Part Time UFO arrived in 2017 as the first game from HAL Laboratory's new mobile gaming brand HAL Egg. Clever, funny, and full of inventive crane game-inspired puzzles, it's an easy recommendation for anyone interested in what other recent games have come from Kirby's longtime developer. So for this episode, we're discussing the history, gameplay, and some of our favorite animal-balancing, cheerleader-stacking moments from Part Time UFO, across the mobile version and its expanded Switch port.


Have you played Part Time UFO? And how do you feel about mobile games versus traditional console experiences? Tell us your thoughts at mail@kirbyconversations.com and we may share them on a future episode.
