Wink’s never been this retro before
Explore a lush post-apocalyptic world while using your laser powers to help a broken robot recover all its pieces. 9 worlds filled with levels, secrets, and a huge map to explore. Shoot enemies with your laser while collecting coins and mysterious ancient treasures like floppy disks and cassette tapes -- plus powerups that give you special abilities, like shooting left and right at the same time and transforming into a milkweed seed to float slowly to the ground
Wink is taking inspiration from Gameboy classics like Super Mario Land 2 and Link’s Awakening, but doing its own little thing. It has been described as a “cross between Megaman and Kirby”. Regardless of the comparisons, Wink has its own personality and a crazy little world to explore all its own
