Project F.L.A.K.
A downloadable game for Windows and Linux
Winner of the Metroidvania Month 23 jam!
Post-jam update available! Time trials are more forgiving, wall run is less sticky and more reliable, game size has been considerably reduced, and a bunch of minor things I kinda forgot.
*****
Captured by the F.L.A.K. criminal organization, you've been brought to one of their remote space installations to be repurposed as a brainwashed cyborg. Your body has been augmented with their hellish technology and it will be a matter of hours, if not minutes, before your mind is rewritten by their nanomachines.
Unexpectedly, the energy barrier that keeps you from leaving your cell slowly dematerializes—a glitch in their systems? Whatever the reason, you're not going to sit idle and wait for your demise.
They should have known better than to mess with you.
Made in one month for the Metroidvania Month 23 jam.
