Prog.1 is a minimalist hardcore 2D platformer game being launched today on Steam! The game was created by Vector Arcade and published by new indie label Groupees Interactive, prog.1 tells the story of a sentient computer virus that threatens the mysterious G.Ai.A project. Doctors Keiko and Cushing, responsible for accidentally releasing the virus, now must race against time to eradicate the infection or G.Ai.A will be lost forever.
Check out the gameplay trailer of Prog.1, showcasing the game features and some gameplay footage:
“In prog.1, surviving deletion is far from certain – thanks to the game’s many platform types: Small square platforms disappear on contact; rectangular platforms immediately disintegrate (to reappear a few seconds later); and large square platforms degenerate as long as the virus remains in contact with them – and regenerate if left alone. Some platforms explode … and elevators trigger on contact. Finally, running away from the horrifying “deletion wall” and dodging dangerous static waves require nerves of steel and absolute concentration from players intent on progressing through the story.
“I designed prog.1 to push players to their absolute limits, with the engrossing storyline acting as a reward of sorts,” said AJ Gonzalez, lead designer at Vector Arcade. “Sure, the game is hard – but I guarantee that players will feel an immense sense of accomplishment if they manage to see it to the end!”
