A mysterious factory outfitted with spiky ceilings, hidden passages, and deadly cogs… that’s a lot for the average robot, but not for C.A.R.L.! Help him uncover the sinister secrets of Kent Industries in this 2D puzzle adventure filled to the brim with funky tunes and retro platformer goodness.

Inspired by classic PC games including Cave Story, Speedy Eggbert, and Jazz Jackrabbit, C.A.R.L. is a retro-style adventure that blends classic platformer action with quirky RPG and story elements for a quest as lively as it is robotic! Hop into the shiny metal shoes of the Computer-Automated Resource Locator, a small yet daring automaton lost within the sprawling Kent Industries facility. Brave each perilous factory floor to fetch Tech Units for your engineer friend on the outside, unlocking new areas and abilities along the way. Chock full of off-beat humor and catchy “Electro-Chiptune” musical tracks, C.A.R.L.’s journey makes for a clever and endlessly satisfying retro romp!
The D.U.M.P. (Depot of Unusable Machines and Parts) serves as your world hub and as the home of the defective robots whose insight and support will help you advance through the adventure. C.A.R.L.'s story is based around this core narrative, but progression is handled through segmented level-based sprints in which you hop onto the dangerous factory floor and collect the Tech Units guarded within.
"Us" is just me, Andrew Kenady (AKA Nintendrew), and my best friend Matt Bitner (AKA Morningstar Game Studio). We have over 15 years of experience between us building games, with titles including Draw a Stickman: EPIC, Battlepillars, A Robot Named Fight, and more. We've built every aspect of C.A.R.L. with love (including design, programming, art, animation, sound, and music), and we're thrilled to finally have the chance to share the game with you!
