DEVELOPER’S NOTE: The glitchy, inspired-by-videogames world we created started as a book, written by a nerd (and his kid!) during COVID. Since then, a small squad of devs have been inspired to turn this into a proper game. The Stinky Adventures of DungDung is a love-letter to many of the classic platformers we’ve played over the years. We draw inspiration from the likes of Jak & Daxter, Ratchet & Clank, and Sly Cooper. But we also asked ourselves, “What if we could mess with the world in small ways, inspired by greats such as Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom? (Or when we’d just enter console cheat codes.)”
We've still got a long way to go, but hope you'll join us on the adventure. This won't stink!
