The story from Polygon:

One year after disappearing from mobile storefronts, Devolver Digital’s Poinpy has made a surprise return to iOS and Android. Better yet, the former Netflix exclusive is entirely free.

…

Poinpy, a mobile platformer created by Downwell director Ojiro Fumoto, has a bit of a strange history that highlights the pitfalls of mobile gaming. It originally launched on June 10, 2022, as part of Netflix’s then-young video game push.

A lot has changed since then. Netflix has since shifted its creative direction, recently experimenting with phone-controlled cloud games like Unhinged and FIFA World Cup. Poinpy got lost somewhere in those shifts. Last year, the game was removed from mobile storefronts, leaving it entirely unplayable. That’s unfortunately a common occurrence for mobile video games, creating a preservation crisis on the platform.

Thankfully, Poinpy hasn’t been lost to time. Devolver Digital returned the game to mobile today as a free download. And since it's no longer tied to Netflix, you don't need a subscription to play. It’s a great time to revisit it four years after its initial release. Poinpy remains a colorful treasure in a sea of microtransaction-filled gacha games.
