Endless runner Buddy & Me (http://www.joystiq.com/2013/04/22/animated-platformer-buddy-and-me-succeeds-on-kickstarter/) has mounted its magical creature to start collecting stars on iOS (https://itunes.apple.com/nz/app/buddy-me/id637897973) and Kindle Fire (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00F08ADX6/ref=cm_sw_su_dp) devices this week for $3. Buddy & Me'sdesigner Jason Behr was lead level designer for Metroid Prime (http://joystiq.com/tag/metroid-prime) and senior mission designer for Halo 4 (http://joystiq.com/game/halo-4), but the game seems to have traded out energy weapons in favor of fairy tale scenery.

Buddy & Me takes place in the dreams of a young boy. Developer Sunbreak Games' website (http://sunbreakgames.com/projects/) describes the game as a sprint through an "infinite treehouse filled with interactive obstacles, curious creatures, and beautiful landmarks inspired by the Pacific Northwest." Players won't be glued to their puffy orange friend forever, though - Buddy soars alongside the boy in the background, offering assistance when the boy is in need of it.

Exploring a world with a beautiful world with a mythical beast as a child. Hmm, almost reminds us of something (http://joystiq.com/game/the-last-guardian) ....
