About the Game

In this Arcade Metroidbrainia, the only thing that stops you from progressing are holes in your understanding.

Use mechanics in clever unique ways to uncover secrets, or dodge randomly generated hazards to get highscores.

Each time you reach the end of the level, a new set of random blocks, hazards, and coins will appear.

Because of that, the level layout will be something no one has ever experienced before.

Even the song playing will be randomly generated!

When the level becomes impossible due to the random generation, use the coins you collected to buy power-ups!

Be it a boost to your jump, deleting an object, or getting another life, you can buy exactly what you need to survive.

Power-ups and objects intertwine nicely to create rich mechanical depth.

Solve cleverly designed puzzles to uncover the truth about this desolate digital land.

You are powerful from the very start, you just don't have the knowledge yet.

FEATURES:

50+ BADGES, that will teach new mechanics and test your existing knowledge

600+ CHARACTER OPTIONS, that you can choose from to make your appearance unique

LEADERBOARDS, to compare progress with your friends and the best players in the world

A STORY, that can be pieced together by finding monitors and chat logs

AN EXIT, that- wait... is there really an exit?

Will you learn the nature of this world, or succumb to the thrill of getting new high scores?
