FULL ENTRY COMING SOON!





A zero-effort late-era game. Somehow the lack of ambition results in a very clean, stylized game with decent level design that syncs well with the character's abilities. Designed by request of a fellow on a local bulletin board. His name was Gremlin. This wasn't exactly what he had in mind.

In fall 2011, the game was slightly updated to add sound effects and original music.

Story

You're in a building, trapped by the evil Gremlin. Find your way to freedom.
