Once upon a time, the great graven cave troll Terry Cavanagh rose from his slumbers, scratched the opals from his beard of woven copper, and said to himself: “Today I will make a 3D egg platform game in which a 3D egg goes platforming, like my hit game VVVVVV, but 3D and with eggs.” And because there was no-one around to say “WTF, Terry” or “perhaps you are just hungry” or “Mr Cavanagh, the egg’s paucity of external appendages and senses wholly disallow it as a means of self-directed locomotion”, that is exactly what he did.
We are all the richer for it, because Egg (subtitle “why not be an egg”) is eggcellent. It’s also free and playable right now in a browser on Itch.io.
This sounds like a delightful and creative project from Terry Cavanagh! It’s always exciting to see unique concepts like a platformer about eggs. Looking forward to seeing how this one unfolds!
