THE GAME

Adventures of Chris is a story-driven adventure platformer heavily influenced by 90's cartoons. Explore 8 initial world locations in any order as you build your character from a weak kid into a plausible video game hero. Chris's floating mechanic allows for unique platforming challenges, and he can learn increasingly powerful spells and special moves as he travels the globe - as well as purchase upgrades from the merchants of the Kingdom of Lost Balloons. Explore a world like something out of a Saturday morning cartoon, fight ninja cats and cyborg penguins, uncover a sinister story, and prove your capabilities to a skeptical population - with laughs along the way!

THE STORY

One day in 1995, seven children around the world mysteriously vanish, including a nerdy, overweight 7th-grader named Chris. Finding himself in a remote part of Transylvania, he soon becomes lost in a Saturday morning cartoon universe of magic and villains. When one of those villains transforms him into a helium balloon as an insult, Chris (ever the optimist) reinterprets his transformation as the superpower of flight, and floats off to save the other kidnapped children.
