YARG

YARG is a platformer set in an underground testing facility. You wake there without remembering how you arrived and try to find a way out. A friendly AI appears on a giant screen and welcomes you to the testing track, where you face difficult challenges involving spikes, lasers, drones, sawblades and ██████. The AI says the tests are meant to measure perseverance and promises a reward for taking part, though the facility’s purpose remains obscured.

Levels and story

The game has 30 one-screen levels, each visible at a glance so you can plan a route through it. Its difficulty curve is tough but designed not to be unfair. Optional collectibles unlock parts of the story.

Rage Mode

After your first playthrough, you unlock Rage Mode. You must complete the entire game with only 6 lives and without saving.

Create and modify

An included level editor lets you make your own levels. The game is highly moddable: you can add levels, music, a story or cutscenes, and its files are open for tinkering.
