Ugly-Thing: Game I is a short 2D action rage platformer inspired by Super Mario World, Pico Park, and Cat Mario/Syobon Action (you already know, don't you?), the first of the Ugly-Thing series. It presents you to Ugly-Thing, a cube-like creature stuck in a facility, filled with various parkour elements to test his species' agility and strength. As Ugly-Thing, parkour through the levels and rescue all the Goobers, each becoming increasingly more difficult, longer, more elaborate, and more annoying!

Ugly-Thing is the newest rage game in town, according to research, 100% of players have become enraged playing, and at least 3-4 insulted the creator for making it (I see why). So what're you waiting for? Play it now!

The game is constantly throwing new features at you, which you'll learn for your self! It organizes levels with specific features, like making a level for just invisible blocks, and then later, mixes these features into many levels. Spinners, trampolines, collapsing blocks, bullets, swimming, buttons that make you smaller, boulders... And many more inspired by classic 2D platformers. Sometimes levels required quick thinking, sometimes they require rhythm... And, of course, these features are organized and planned in a way that will annoy you, and keep you playing and engaged UNTIL you beat that level, because... That feeling of victory.... Other than platform levels, there are also puzzle levels every now and then, to.... Continue, duh.

The Story of Ugly-Thing is simple: Ugly-Thing is among one of the normal citizens of Cubeland, a land where the cube species lives, separated between Things (larger, more colorful and oftentimes older) and Goobers (oftentimes younger or smaller, and oftentimes orange versions of Things). Then one day, Texto appears, with the intention of testing multiple species from multiple planets, being Cubeland one of them, 90% of Cubeland's population is taken to Texto's facility, Ugly-Thing, nicknamed as that by his neighboorhood and mainly Texto, being one of the stronger, most brave, and fastest of the ones kidnapped by Texto, decides that he MUST pass through all of Texto's tests, while rescuing Goobers that are able to break out of their tests of cells. After those events, are the events of the game that you WILL play!

[FEATURE NOT YET ADDED] Game I is filled with secrets, both levels and optional abilities for the late game, which assist you in difficult levels, these levels can be acquired by collect a certain amount of stuff in a certain level, by using unlocked abilities in older levels, or by finding no-clippable areas in them! While, these secrets are (obviously) unnecessary, they are fun new features, plus, some of these secrets may be tutorials to features introduced later in the game (which come out unexpectedly)!

How to properly download the game:

  2. Once it is finished, right-click the game's file on your Downloads or whatever other folder you put it on.

  3. Click on "extract to [FILENAME]/".

  4. Wait for a while.

  5. If it worked well, the .zip should have become a folder, inside, there are folders to versions of the game in several platforms.

  6. Click on the folder of your OS (eg. win32 or mac64-arm).

  7. Inside the folder, there should a NW.js app containing the game.
