Struggling is a physics-based co-op platformer with a twisted spin on teamwork. Control the arms of a squishy abomination and guide it through a deranged
world where anything goes. Outrun ravenous rats, joyride a dirt bike, and vault over pools of unmentionable waste. One thing’s certain: you will struggle.
Two hideous heads are better than one
Inventive co-op will test the firmest of friendships. Grab a partner and work together by controlling one arm each. When even walking takes a combinedeffort, communication is key to keeping your cool.
Crawl, swing, clamber, and slide to victory
Manipulate each arm independently and latch onto literally anything you see, from suspicious levers to dangling eyeballs. Triumph over physics-basedchallenges, or get your arms ripped off in the process (don’t worry, they grow back).
