About the Game

in another Place, In another Time,
There lived, far away from everything, from everyone,
A small puppet made of oak and birch tree, hidden behind the forest.


Overview

Decline's Drops is a beautiful hand-drawn 2D platform-brawler, in which you play as Globule, a wooden boxing-gloved Puppet who seeks revenge for her destroyed Garden. It brings the unique gameplay of famous platform-fighters (Super Smash Bros., Rivals of Aether…) and set in a solo colorful and melancholic adventure.

Each world, each character has been meticulously designed and crafted, made with love, passion, and care. Embracing the level design mastery of Yoshi's Island, DKC : Tropical Freeze, Kirby’s Adventure or Shovel Knight, Decline's Drops merges it with the satisfying gameplay  of the Super Smash Bros. series in a solo focused adventure, full of  chickens and frogs to punch, things to explore, and secrets to find!

Dive into 6 worlds, each one of them being a subtle satire of our own world.  From the destruction of the environment to the exploitation of the animals, through the pollution of the seas and the impacts of high consumerism, Decline's Drops, without being a moral speech, has a lore focused on these different aspects of our modern society.
