About The Nothing
The Nothing is a surreal, blood-soaked side-scrolling action game set in a non-Euclidean purgatory. Trapped in a tesseract, you face fourth-dimensional horrors and seek a way to break the cycle and escape. The screen does not scroll, and there is no backtracking: you can only move forward, deeper into the hypercube.
Runs and routes
The game is designed for multiple short runs, with procedurally generated elements and permadeath. Level generation depends on your overall direction of travel, and the game has five separate routes. Your actions and chosen route determine which ending you reach, across nine different endings.
Items and bosses
Items can be stored persistently between runs in the steamer trunk. The game features 21 bosses.
