Pep-Pel

Pep-Pel is a momentum-based platformer starring Pep-Pel, a magician cursed to become a small red goblin. You run through large-scale levels, build speed and search for the monstrous treasure chests that cursed her. The game has eight main levels across eight distinct worlds, each made from hundreds of hand-drawn assets.

Movement and challenges

Levels focus on building momentum, with skilled play letting you travel at extreme speeds. Curved and natural surfaces are central to the level design, and a system lets Pep-Pel move across different kinds of surface geometry. A range of movement mechanics supports fluid movement through the levels. The game is fast and challenging, but deaths are quick so you can retry without a long wait; hidden armour lets you survive one extra hit.

Each of the eight main levels introduces its own mechanic at the start and develops it as you progress. These include candy projectiles, rope, lasers, chase mechanics, wind, water and poison. Hard Mode levels combine mechanics from multiple levels.

Collectibles and costumes

Each level contains hundreds of collectables, and you can earn medals for finishing levels quickly. Levels encourage replaying to improve your completion times and collect more items. You can unlock costumes by beating levels or finding collectables.

Worlds and animation

Each level takes place in its own world, with a distinct color palette and visual style. Pep-Pel has over 150 unique animations, blended together during play as she moves. Her character is a 3D model with 2D stylization, enabling more extreme and dynamic animation.
