TOBAFCASS

About

TOBAFCASS is a side-scrolling shooter that cranks up the difficulty with relentless waves of enemies and tight platforming. You control a character darting through levels packed with hazards, using quick reflexes to survive. The gameplay leans into old-school brutality, echoing the punishing style of 90s Amiga titles. Levels blend action with precise jumps, demanding both speed and care. The game’s aesthetic pulls from a 1924 silent film and a 19th-century biology textbook, creating a weirdly beautiful clash of art styles. Enemy designs are lifted directly from Ernst Hackel’s Kunstformen der Natur, a book of intricate, otherworldly sea creature illustrations. Paired with electronic music that hums with a retro synth vibe, the result is a visually distinct challenge that’s as strange as it is demanding. Players looking for a test of skill with a dash of surreal art will find it here.
