The Squarer button can then be used to fire Charlie’s weapons as you aim with the right analog stick, as inertia carries Charlie around. You’ll be holding down the X button to make Charlie use its limited thrusters to fly around the game’s locations by using the left analog stick to aim. So how does the game work? Well, just like Mordor, one does not simply walk into Space Otter Charlie. With otters at the forefront, the sea life of Earth decides they too should venture into the stars, with Space Otter Charlie at the forefront of their expeditions. Fast forward a few bouts of evolution, and most sea life has eventually gained sentience and intelligence. But what is in this “Otter Facts” packed game? Well, supposedly in the early 2500s, after nearly destroying the Earth due to pollution, humans straight up leave the planet to expand their reach into the stars, leaving the wildlife of Earth to fend for itself. The short answer is, “yes, this is a solidly put-together piece of propaganda game.” Otters can feel confident that their money has been well spent.

But is it enough to hide the fact that otters are a menace to the sea urchin and crab societies? In what is best described as a Zero-G puzzle platformer, publisher The Quantum Astrophysicists Guild has clearly been hired by a group of otters to make a cutesy otter-themed game to garner publicity. Did you know: “Sea otters are really cute and that’s a fact”? Wayward Distractions really wanted you to know this in what can only be described as “otter propaganda.” A message they seem to feel so strongly about they chose to make a game about it.
