Nikki and the Robots
Nikki and the Robots is a 2D platform game with an embedded
Chipmunk physics engine.
In a fictional world of the future the infamous super villain
Dr. Lacroix schemes to seize world supremacy with his army of robots.
You take the role of Nikki and try to cross those evil plans on behalf
of a secret organization. Your quest will take you to various
locations: from futuristic metropolises to submarine facilities,
floating islands, and even as far as orbital space.
Nikki and the Robots renders homage to the classical platform
games of the eighties and nineties, while at the same time realizing a
unique gameplay idea.
The main character Nikki refrains from using any
weapons or equipment during the whole quest, and can only jump and run
around the levels. However, it is possible to hack into Dr. Lacroix's
various robots and to take control of them via computer terminals. The
nifty use of the robots and the combination of their characteristic
special abilities enable Nikki to solve puzzles, overcome obstacles,
and complete the level tasks.
