Gigga Bit Labyrinth

developed by AnanCee

A platformer inspired by Super Mario 3-D World. This is still in early development and most of what you see is from a sandbox mode where the developer is testing various mechanics. That being said I love the pulsating voxel art style along with the character design, and some of the mechanics look quite fun already so I thought I would share and hopefully motivate the developer to work faster. :P

They have a YouTube channel where they’ve started to go into depth on the design of Gigga Bit Labyrinth and is worth a look. You can also follow the developer on Twitter.
