Hey everyone,

It's been a year and a half since I launched Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy, and today I'm able to share the release of APE OUT, which is one of the things I've been working on since then. This time it's not a 'Bennett Foddy' game, but something I've been working on with two of my good friends, as an artist and level designer.

Here's the official description from Devolver:

APE OUT is a wildly intense and colorfully stylized smash ‘em up about primal escape, rhythmic violence, and frenetic jazz. Build up nearly unstoppable momentum and use your captors as both weapons and shields to crush everyone on your procedurally generated path to freedom.

Well anyway, I'm obviously biased but I love this game - and I think if you like Getting Over It you'll probably like this one too. The designer, Gabe, is not as cruel as I am but it is pretty close.

That's fixed now. Sadly the secret at the end of the game doesn't work on M1 macs. That's beyond my control, so if it's important to you, run in Rosetta mode.Game update6 Jan 2022Patch notes v 1.7, Jan 6 2022Korean subtitles should work again. Sorry about that!
