Project Nasu

About

Project Nasu is a 2D platformer where you control Nasu, a lab experiment trying to escape a scientist's facility. Use your snout to shoot projectiles that push you backward, helping you dodge enemies and navigate obstacles. The game mixes action with puzzle solving as you manipulate platforms and disable lasers to progress through the lab. Each level requires timing and strategy to outsmart traps and make your way to freedom. The standout feature is the backward movement mechanic, which adds a fresh twist to platforming challenges. Puzzles blend physics and logic, requiring both reflexes and problem-solving to disable lasers and activate platforms. Developed by Goofy Goose and published by DigiPen Institute of Technology, the game launched in October 2023. Early feedback highlights its clever level design and quirky aesthetic, making it a memorable entry in the genre.
