A fast-paced action-platformer where an NPC wields a makeshift spear to fight glitches, solve puzzles, and save his own game.
Imagine your heroic protagonist just got wiped out by a "fatal error". Yeah, typical Monday stuff. And now, some random background NPC named Default, who's literally just armed with a glorified stick, has to save the entire digital world. No pressure then, right? Dive into this glitch-ridden, action-packed platformer, full of quirky mechanics, broken quests, and secrets that should probably stay buried in corrupted code. Remember, heroes are overrated anyway.
There are potions you're definitely not supposed to drink. So obviously, you'll chug them right away, and items that'll turn you into... something. Maybe you'll fly, maybe you'll explode, maybe you'll just regret everything immediately. Welcome to inventory roulette!

Sure, spears are traditionally for poking holes in things. But this isn't any old spear, it's an overachiever. Use it to impale annoying bugs, call it back with your mind, slow down time, get across impossible gaps, and even transform it into a platform. It's the Swiss Army knife of sticks.

The player's dead, and the NPCs have absolutely nothing better to do than moan about their broken quests. Guess whose job it is to fix that mess? Hint: it's yours. Time to play therapist for a bunch of depressed NPCs who didn't even bother to learn your name.

Explore an increasingly bizarre world, unlocking new levels, hidden secrets, and delightful surprises behind every corrupted pixel. It’s thrilling, like stepping on digital Lego and shouting profanity.

The game's so gloriously broken that the difficulty spikes whenever it feels like it. Just when you think you’re safe, bugs mutate into explosive, rage-filled nightmares. And here's the kicker: the stronger you get, the angrier the bugs become. Going back to earlier levels? Oh, you'll wish you hadn't. It’s a beautiful cycle of violence and regret.

Welcome to SPEAR—because fixing the game you’re playing wasn’t exactly on your bucket list, was it?
