Infos zum Spiel

A 3D platformer that alternates between mazes, puzzles, and collectables (and snarky narration)

Each level is a navigation puzzle: how do I find the exit while collecting all the necessary or optional objects along the way, some of which may be hidden, or hard to reach?

Levels are small & bite sized, but open ended with multiple paths. Find a fast enough path to unlock extra content, or just muddle thru for a casual experience, skipping challenges that don't appeal.

Features:

• Not a precision platformer
  
• Death just means quick travel back to the last (user specifiable) checkpoint
  
• Mazes always have a tell, leading you in the right direction (But wander randomly, if you must)
  
• Causal/chill vibe players can ignore as much speedruning or collecting as they want, and even search out the hidden skip level option if desperate
  
• Soundtrack can be muted AT ANY TIME (but we hope you won't want to)
  
• Plays equally well with gamepad or mouse (mouse required for menus only).
  
• Visual Minimalism is inspired by PS2 era but does not try to be intentionally ugly in some kind of misplaced Retro Fetishism.

A STORY that doesn't get in the way

An alien spacecraft just entered the solar system, but all that's on board is a video game? As the world'sPreeminent Video Game Scientist you've been tasked with solving this mystery. But you won't be alone; the unseen snarky narrator will be at you side the whole time, making sure you don't get all the credit and glory.

Our GAMEPLAY: a philosophical treatise

A good collectahon is a navigation puzzle: how do I find the exit while collecting all the necessary objects along the way, some of which may be hidden or hard to reach? That's the philosophy behind our levels: there is no single path through them, but there's probably a BEST way, which may not have been discovered yet (or even intended by the designer).

Because large sprawling open world levels can get tiresome, with a lot of backtracking or getting lost, our levels are smaller, bite sized floating platforms where completing a level should never take more than 5 minutes.

Gameplay is flexible too: the only requirement is to get to the end of each level; most collectables are optional. But if you want to unlock the full game + after story you'll have to collect all the things and do it (relatively) quickly. Rather than competing against a world leaderboard with ever diminishing odds of ever placing, our speedrun challenges are designed for a moderately motivated and moderately agile player to achieve given some planning, knowledge of the level layout, and at most a few retries to get it right.
