Blob Boy

Blob Boy is a 3D momentum-based precision platformer in which you guide a little blue blob up a mountain. Blob Boy is looking for Wizrad, a wizard who claims to grant a wish to anyone who finds him. Wizrad’s door is locked, and opening it requires 15 keys. The connected map contains 30 keys, each with its own challenge built around the game’s mechanics.

Build momentum

Blob Boy moves slowly and cannot jump very high on the ground, so you use his abilities to gain speed and clear obstacles. Staying airborne helps build momentum, while knowing when to return to the ground is important for controlling your movement.

When Blob Boy hits the ground, he bounces like a trampoline; a well-timed jump sends him higher. He can also jump off walls for a boost and extra height, which lets him climb a wide range of surfaces. As a sticky, amorphous blob, he can stretch out and cling to surfaces to swing. You cannot control his movement while clinging, so swings rely on existing momentum; they can also redirect it and carry him through the map.

Save and travel

Three huts are scattered around the map. You can unlock each one by spending five keys, then use the huts to fast travel between them. Huts also let you save your keys so you do not lose them if you fall into water or quit. They are optional, though they can help if you do not finish the game in one session.
