PlatformAdventureIndie

Challenging · Post-Apocalyptic

A punishing platformer that demands pixel-perfect precision, The End Is Nigh is a relentless gauntlet of razor-sharp spikes and gravity-defying jumps. Its bleak, post-apocalyptic world is a fitting backdrop for the game's core loop: die, learn, and try again. The satisfaction comes not from victory, but from overcoming impossible odds, a feeling that keeps players hooked despite the frequent, brutal deaths.

About The End Is Nigh

View Game Details
The End Is Nigh is a sprawling adventure platformer where the player takes control of Ash, one of few 'things' that have 'survived' the "end of the world." Follow Ash as he flops his way through a future of pain and suffering. Feel his stress levels rise as you throw him into an endless swarm of decaying, mutant creatures and help aid his final epic quest... to simply make a friend.
