About the Game

He must reclaim it.
The desperate adventure of a boy who has lost everything.


'Finding Sparky' is a dark, gloomy, noir-style side-scrolling game
with an unpredictable dark story, puzzles, actions,
filled with endless twists and turns.

====================================================

FEATURES

Tom's Own New Way of Battle - Vision System

Tom is always nervous while dealing with ghosts.
Going through the battle, you'll find yourself extremely narrow in vision.


A Unique and Innovative Boss Battle

Unfortunately, the strategy of 'hit and run' won't work.

A Shocking Story that You've Never Seen Before

Could it be more desperate than this?

Highly immersive and differentiated storytelling

Cutscenes, camera manipulation, side-scrolling that make you feel like you're watching a puppet show.
There are so many elements that make the game more immersive.






====================================================

Oh, and most of all,
'Finding Sparky' isn't just a game about simply rescuing a dog.
There's something else. Something important.

What would it be?
Well...



...a cat?

...oh...
I see...
...nevermind.

At least, for now.
