About this game

Banished.   Pixelated.   Determined.

Juan had it all— a vibrant world, a best friend named Greg, and an adventure waiting to unfold. But after a fateful encounter with a grumpy Dinosaur, he’s been cast down into the prototype version of his own game! Now trapped in a 1-bit world of unfinished code and forgotten assets, Juan must fight, platform, and puzzle his way back to where he belongs.

Switch between two distinct art styles—gritty 1-bit and polished 16-bit—as you uncover the secrets of the Prototype Realm. Use your whip, shield, and quick reflexes to survive enemy encounters, traverse treacherous environments, and collect the keys needed to escape this digital purgatory.

Can Juan reclaim his adventure, or is he doomed to remain a half-finished idea?

NOTE: Optimized for Steam Deck — runs smoothly at 60 FPS with default Proton settings.

 🕹️ Fast-paced 2D action platforming with tight controls

 ⚔️ Whip-cracking combat and strategic shield-shot mechanics

 🎨 Unique dual-art style aesthetic: 1-bit prototype vs. full-color 16-bit adventure

 🔑 Metroidvania-style exploration—find hidden keys to progress

Play now and help Juan escape development hell!
