Banished. Pixelated. Determined.
Juan had it all— a vibrant world, a best friend named Greg, and an adventure waiting to unfold. But after a fateful encounter with a grumpy dinosaur, he’s been cast down into the prototype version of his own game. Now trapped in a 1-bit world of unfinished code and forgotten assets, Juan must fight, platform, and puzzle his way back to where he belongs.
Switch between two distinct art styles—gritty 1-bit and polished 16-bit—as you uncover the secrets of the Prototype Realm. Use your whip, shield, and quick reflexes to survive enemy encounters, traverse treacherous environments, and collect the keys needed to escape this digital purgatory.
Can Juan reclaim his adventure, or is he doomed to remain a half-finished idea?
🎮 Features:
🕹️ Fast-paced 2D action platforming with tight controls
⚔️ Whip-cracking combat and strategic shield-shot mechanics
🎨 Unique dual-art style aesthetic: 1-bit prototype vs. full-color 16-bit adventure
🔑 Metroidvania-style exploration—find hidden keys to progress
Play now and help Juan escape development hell!

Hey Marty,
I streamed my playthrough of your game (the video has chapters). Check it out:
This was so much fun! A great demo you've put together and it made me want to play more. I like and would like to see more of the dual art style. Keen to see as well how the two will play differently from each other. Juan is a cute and like-able character. I like the open level design and getting to choose what order I get the keys in. Well done and all the best with completing the game!
I have created a Discord as a space for game devs to talk about their experiences and share their games. Would love to have you join!

Hey Arluc Games, I just wanna say THANK YOU SO MUCH 🥹 for taking the time to play thru my Demo & your valuable feedback! 🙏 I watched your playtest and took some notes. Some of the issues you described have since been fixed (ie: There's a map-like feature now to determine which keys you've collected)
Also, the game itself is finally on Steam available for Wishlist now:

I'm making slow, but steady progress on development. Hoping for a late Summer/Early Autumn release. This video gave me a boost of motivation I needed to continue on!
Can’t wait play the full game when it releases! The demo feels great and I can see how much it’s improved since the last version. Juan is much easier to control and the level design never feels tedious. Juan never fails to make me laugh out loud with his witty dialogue either 😂 keep up the good work!
