About This Demo

You are the Friendliest Skunk in the Forest!

Jump into the fur of Skunk, a small guy with a big dream: to become friends with every animal in the forest. Or part of the forest at least , as this is a demo! There’s just one tiny problem… Skunk’s scent is so strong that most animals stay far, far away. Not Kevin, though — your ever-loyal companion who teaches you how to turn your biggest weakness into your greatest strength. With Kevin’s guidance, prepare to brave the forest’s many challenges — because not everyone out there is friendly. Hungry Viper Plants and patrolling Horned Owls wait patiently for a single misstep… all while grooving to the beat of the music. Wait—music?

A Rhythm-based Platformer

The Friendliest Skunk is not just a platformer! Everything in the world reacts to the rhythm of the music. Retractable thorns, vanishing platforms, enemy movement — and most significantly: The player's jump! That's right, Skunk has the innate ability to do a double jump, but the height of that jump is determined by how well you time your inputs! Every few beats, Skunk lets out a rhythmic little fart, and if you’re airborne when it happens, it’ll propel you higher! 

Meet the Friends

On your journey, you’ll meet and befriend a cast of charming forest animals — each with their own personality, quirks, and story to tell.

Collect All the Logs

The Friendliest Skunk is a moderately difficult game because of its unique mechanic that can be hard to learn — but super satisfying to master. For those who dare to seek an even greater challenge we invite you to find the hidden logs in all of the levels. Logs are collectibles that typically require some more advanced knowledge of the jumps and mechanics. Good luck!
