O tym demie

Take control of a cute naughty gremlin and do the bidding of your loving mechanical Mother!

In Co-Op Gremlin Tours, you and your Gremlin friends are on a trip to the (newly terraformed) surface of the planet, using the drilling machines left behind by the Creators. Each Tour will take you through a number of small caves, each with its own distinct theme and goal. At the end of each cave, you will find another drill taking you to the next cave: but first, you and your Gremlin pals will need to decide which cave to explore next with a vote!

This is a roguelike spin-off in the Mother Machine universe. Existing Mother Machine owners will receive this free if it's fully developed.

Features

Varied Gameplay- In a Gremlin Tour you encounter small caves, each with a different theme and biome. Some caves will be all about platforming with ropes and acid pools to dodge; another might have swarms of critters hunting you in the dark; or perhaps you’ll be trying to smash as many crystals as you can before the Drill departs.

Progression System- When you start a Tour, you don’t have any mutations or perks yet. Different caves will give you opportunities to equip a mutation or get a perk as you progress through the ascension path, so you’ll become more powerful and get to try different abilities as you keep drilling up. You will also start the game with a base level of health, stamina, and respawns, and there will be ways to unlock permanent upgrades, cave-types, and abilities that persist between each Tour.

Replayability -You will be experiencing a different “Ascension” map layout each time, with decisions about which path to take after each cave changing what options you have later in the Tour. And as you equip different mutations on each Tour, you will experience different “builds” of your team (with your unlocks all pooled together to choose from).

This demo includes a light tutorial and roughly half the caves we'd envision for a full ascension path (with complete Tours spanning 2-3 different ascension paths). All mutations and customizations are unlocked from the start, and there are no permanent upgrades yet. You can play online with friends through Steam's invite system or Remote Play Together, though split-screen isn't included.
