About the Game

Premise:

You are a cube far down in some structure. You've been there for a long time.

A mysterious voice talks to you and speaks of a beautiful world above.

Your choices:

During your ascent you'll find buttons. It's your choice whether you push them. I recommend you push them all!

Gameplay:

It's a short and simple 2D platformer. I wanted to make each level special with unique platforming, interesting monologue or a button.

The Beautiful World above:

The goal of the game is to see the Beautiful World above for yourself. Please do not look online to see how it looks like, the journey is an important part of the experience.

I hope you enjoy!
