About the Game

STUCK is a retro-style platformer where you play as an astronaut stranded on a strange alien planet. Run, jump, and blast through colorful pixel environments using your trusty jetpack. Bounce on alien creatures, dodge deadly hazards, and collect lost ship parts to escape. Each level brings new challenges, from tricky platforming to giant alien encounters. Can you find all the pieces and make it back home?

A message from the developer

This was one of the first games I made, originally developed back in 1994 or so (I was about 10 years old at the time). It was later polished up a bit (I had plans to expand it with a proper storyline, etc.), but was eventually abandoned. Instead of letting it gather dust, I figured it would be fun to release it. Most of the game will be left as-is, with all its historical flaws and jankiness still intact—for memory’s sake. I do plan to add controller support and achievements before release, though. The game is a very short adventure that you can get for free and complete in one sitting.
