Flem

Try, die, cry, repeat. Flem is an old school hard-as-nails platformer about a sentient snot ball, with a nose-stalgia inducing soundtrack.

About the Game

In this unforgiving retro-platformer, you play as the bouncing booger ball Flem, stranded in a strange new world after the calamity of the Great Sneeze. Make your way through four colorful Seasons, avoid the oddly hostile environment and discover Flem’s hidden snot powers. Put your speedrunning skills to the test to earn medals and see how you measure up against other players through leaderboards. You sneeze you lose.

  • 40 levels over four seasons filled with spikes and unfriendly creatures.
  • Time trials and leaderboards for every level.
  • Cheery 8-bit inspired soundtrack.
  • Nose-stalgia!
