[ 2015-04-17 17:28:47 CET ] [ Original post ] FranknJohn is a horror inspired action roguelike, where your head
is your weapon! Young FranknJohn is a failed experiment of a demented scientist, Dr Harmin. He wakes, with no memory, in a cell, with a head that can only stay on his body with the help of a chain. FranknJohn is far from helpless however, as his flaw becomes his strength - he can swing his head wildly round to smash away the plethora of strange creatures that roam the house of horror...

Bug Fixing
- We have put a lot of effort into making sure FranknJohn is as bug free as possible, however the game is in Early Access so it is unavoidable. We will do our best to squish them as soon as they present their ugly heads.
Balancing
