The End Is Nigh

Ash is one of the few creatures left after the world’s collapse. He travels through the wasteland on a simple but unusual quest: to find a friend. Move through compact platforming stages by running, jumping, and grabbing ledges. Hazards and enemies make timing and positioning essential, while frequent retries let you quickly try a different approach. Explore connected chapters, uncover hidden routes, and collect tumors and keys. Cartridges lead to playable mini-games, while secrets and optional challenges offer more to discover beyond the main path.

Guide Ash through precise platforming stages in a ruined world as he searches for a friend and gathers strange collectibles.
