Our take on Flipping Death
Rather than centering on combat or exploration alone, this adventure builds its puzzles around switching between the living and the dead. Possessing living characters, controlling their limbs, and reading their thoughts connects the platforming to the story’s mystery.
What is Flipping Death?
After dying in unclear circumstances, Penny takes on a temporary role as Death.
She can travel between the realm of the living and the realm of the dead, jump across platforms, and solve puzzles by moving living people’s limbs and accessing their thoughts. As she helps the dead find peace, she investigates the cause of her own death. This comedy adventure combines platforming with puzzles in vivid settings styled like pop-up books. Its puzzles connect the two realms: Penny travels from one to the other and influences living characters while exploring.
