UFO-Man: A Physics-Based Puzzle Game Set to Launch on Steam and iOS
Indie developer Dyglone has revealed their upcoming physics-based puzzle game, UFO-Man, launching on Steam and iOS. The deceptively simple objective? Transport a box using your UFO's tractor beam. However, the execution is far from simple.
Players will navigate treacherous landscapes, precarious platforms, and dodge speeding vehicles, all while keeping the precious cargo secure. The difficulty is notoriously high, with no checkpoints; dropping the box means restarting the level from the beginning. This unforgiving gameplay is inspired by the Japanese bar game "Iraira-bou."
To soften the blow of repeated failures, UFO-Man features a "Crash Count" system, tracking the number of collisions with obstacles or the box itself. Aim for a low crash count to achieve a high score.
The game boasts low-poly visuals and a calming soundtrack to offset the intense challenge. For those seeking a similarly frustrating experience, a list of the hardest mobile games is available to help tide you over until UFO-Man's mid-2024 release.
Add UFO-Man to your Steam wishlist, follow the developer on YouTube for updates, or visit the official website for more information. The embedded video provides a glimpse of the game's unique aesthetic and gameplay.
