Featuring spiky ceilings, hidden passages, and deadly cogs, a mysterious factory may seem overwhelming to the average robot, but not to C.A.R.L.! This 2D puzzle adventure is packed with retro platformer goodness and funky tunes as he uncovers Kent Industries’ sinister secrets.
This is a cool game with all the right retro vibes built-in. The graphics are certainly a cut above your average 80’s platformer. The game’s plot is also spot-on for a Saturday morning cartoon substitute. I was speaking about myself! – Cool game. Donnie, Editor, GFB
Taking inspiration from classic PC games like Cave Story, Speedy Eggbert, and Jazz Jackrabbit, C.A.R.L. blends classic platforming action with a quirky RPG and storyline for an action-packed adventure! The Computer-Automated Resource Locator, a small yet daring automaton lost within the sprawling Kent Industries facility, invites you to step inside its shiny metal shoes. You must brave each perilous floor of the factory to collect Tech Units for your engineer friend outside, unlocking new abilities and areas along the way.
An endlessly satisfying retro romp, C.A.R.L.’s journey is full of off-beat humor and catchy “Electro-Chiptune” musical tracks!
