About This Game

perfect liar is a modern juke-em-up about making it up as you go. take up the mantle of the god of lies and weave your clever way past the mighty forces of the truth, frantically building your own twisted path to ferry deceit from the guts out past the lips. twist a lifetime over the course of 18 levels, from a child’s first innocent untruth to the dying breath of a rotten soul. uniquely combining roguish strategy with the rush of a speedrun, perfect liar is a bite-sized dose of cortisol with sinister hooks and surprising depth.

collect map tiles to chart your path through the liar's maze while simultaneously dodging your way through a web of increasingly menacing angelic foes; think on your feet and make your own luck from the draw to score record times, or plow ahead cautiously taking down each stage as it comes. collect powerups, study patterns of movement, die endlessly—and come back each time ready for more. test your wits with a unique 'dodging only' mechanic while navigating a stark hand-drawn world to a nerve-wracking black metal inspired electronic soundtrack.

• you know in old cartoons when the train tracks suddenly end and the character has to start nailing boards down ahead of them at lightning speed as they hurtle along?

• you know in games when you die but you know next time you won’t, next time you could be a little faster and a little better, and you see yourself stretch past your limits and discover new ones?

• you know in real life when each detail complicates things a little more and you’ve got no choice but to keep digging yourself a deeper hole and hope you’ll reach the other side before it caves in?

…it’s kind of like that. push yourself to the limits, discovering sly secrets and clever complications, and emerge on the far side changed forever. is this easy for you? were you born to do this? do you have what it takes to become the perfect liar?
