About the Game


Shank n' Bake is a mixture of cutesy platforming and overly violent runner cartoon goodness. Slay your foes, dress sharply, and use powerups and your special ability, Sugar Rush, to take down the all the healthy food in the world!



A new movement among the humans has stopped all consumption of unhealthy food. A lone adorable jelly filled muffin man, Miff Mufflon must travel the world brutally murdering healthy foods and their leaders, The Four, to the point of extinction so that his kind can, once again, be eaten and appreciated by humans.



Think not for a moment that you can deal out death and avoid it entirely. Dying horribly will no doubt be a common part of your beautiful journey, so lean back enjoy the auditory treat of around 1 hour of unique screaming deaths and the visual experience of dozens of unique deaths and murder animations!



Looking good is the first step to leading a revolution! Strudes can hook you up with the latest in baked good fashion. With an ungodly amount of combinations, your can express your truest self, be it a laser sword wielding copper or a very royal leather daddy.
