Escape the cloning facility

Peter Shorts was pulled off his Saturday grill by a secret agency that wants his DNA for cloning. You play as Peter, fighting through the facility where rogue Peter clones are running loose. The main adventure is a Metroidvania-style beat-em-up: explore the facility, K.O. rogue Peter clones, and take down the boss Peters to unlock transformations. The goal is to escape with your newly-cloned brethren and settle things with the mad scientist who took Peter from his grill. The game has multiple endings, so how you get out matters.

Play with a friend

Player 2 joins as BUG, who drops egg-bombs and captures enemies. That gives you a second pair of hands for the co-op run through the facility. The game also has a multiplayer VS Mode with 25 playable Peters, so your group can fight each other instead of the clones. Remote Play Together is supported for playing over the internet.

Controls and extras

The controls are simple 2-button setups with fighting game mechanics layered on top: GUARD, PARRY, and AIR DODGE. Expect precision platforming alongside the brawling, since the game mixes 2D platformer and puzzle platformer elements with the beat-em-up combat. A built-in randomizer unlocks once you collect all the diskettes, which gives you a reason to go back through the facility after the first run. The soundtrack is a chiptune score built on 2A03+FDS hardware.
