Tiny Cthulhu - The 3D Platform Game Which-Should-Not-Be....

Well here is an interesting little number which has popped up on my backlog of "oh my god I really need to set aside more time for articles" list.



Tiny Cthulhu is an upcoming indie platform/shooter game with quite a unique twist on it, the game is dark, very dark, with local light sources spicing things up. Here a video to better explain;

Now while I have complained before about the amount of platformers coming out, this one is 3D and is well quite different, I like love it!

My only complaint is that after watching the videos sometimes it is just too dark but i'm sure light sources will be tweaked closer to the release.

Info from the Author;

Quote*A teacher at the notoriously underfunded Miskatonic University Daycare
Centre sends her charges off to sleep with a story from the Necronomicon
(it was the only book she could find in the library that had pictures...)
Through her not-quite-carefully-edited-
enough account, we follow the dread
Tiny Cthulhu on his travels through mind-blasting vortexes of madness and
adorableness on his way to rain inevitable and cuddly doom on a blissfully
unsuspecting humanity.
...Sleep well, kids...*

Are you personally offended by the astonishing lack of 3D Platforming
titles for PC/Mac/Linux?
Do you further feel that there's simply not enough Eldritch Abomination in
your life?

Well, in that incredibly unlikely case, you'll probably be overjoyed to
hear that THEORY32 has just launched an Indiegogo fundraiser for Tiny
Cthulhu - its an upcoming game of adorable Lovecraftian mega-horror.
