Bandagoo - 2D Platformer

Bandagoo is a 2D side-scrolling platformer. Free software, no ads, no in-app
purchases, no data collection.

You play a boy in a bandana. You run, you jump, you throw fireballs, and you
land on creatures to flatten them. The levels are hand-made, not generated, and
they are linked by an overworld map you walk across between them, so you can
always see where you have been and what is still ahead.

WHAT LIVES IN THE LEVELS

The bestiary belongs to the hills and caves the game is set in:

- woodlice that roll up into a ball when you hit them
- voles that dig and come back up where you were not looking
- living geodes that crack open
- worms that shoot out of their burrows as you pass
- a drilling beetle that crosses the whole screen
- stalactites that let go over your head

CONTROLS

Everything is on the screen: a directional pad, a jump button, a shoot button
and pause. Their size and their opacity are adjustable, and the vibration can
be turned off, in the options menu. No hidden gestures to discover.

WHAT IT DOES NOT DO

- no ads, of any kind, anywhere
- no in-app purchases, nothing locked behind money
- no account, no sign-in
- no analytics, no crash reporting, no identifiers, no tracking
- no network permission at all, so it runs on a plane or in a tunnel
