Traverse the expanse of PC frames
MainFrames is a unique puzzle game developed by Assoupi and published by The Arcade Crew, in which you play as Floppy, a sentient program who is on a journey of self-discovery, trying to seek a place in the digital world.
With its vibrant pixel art and upbeat chiptune soundtrack, MainFrames brings a desktop environment to life as its own unique game world. While it follows the classic 2D platformer formula, it introduces refreshing twists through innovative mechanics. The game’s charming visuals, quirky characters, and humorous writing add to its appeal, making every interaction both fun and memorable
Discover Floppy’s true purpose
In MainFrames, you must traverse a maze of diverse PC frames, allowing you to encounter cute and vibrant characters. The game is filled with hilarious scenes and encourages exploration, rewarding players who take the time to uncover hidden details. This makes piecing together Floppy's true function and purpose more engaging, with a well-crafted background story that unfolds as you progress.
In this game, PC windows serve as platforms that players must rearrange to forge new routes while jumping from one frame to another. Each expanse offers unique environments and fresh mechanics, constantly providing players with new elements. Navigating obstacles requires careful planning, making the gameplay tough but not frustratingly difficult. However, the game often registers inputs when it shouldn't, resulting in unintended actions.
Beyond its core mechanics, the game offers plenty of side challenges. Collectibles are scattered throughout the game, rewarding those who explore every corner, while mini-games challenge you to beat high scores. Moreover, the diverse environments ensure that each stage feels fresh, preventing obstacles from becoming repetitive. However, the overall content is relatively short, with a playtime of around three hours, which might leave players wanting more.
Adventure-filled digital world
MainFrames offers a charming and engaging adventure through a vibrant digital world, featuring unique mechanics and a heartwarming journey of self-discovery. The fresh and exciting gameplay keeps players invested, though its short content and occasional issues with unintended input registration can be frustrating. Despite these drawbacks, the game remains an enjoyable and ever-evolving puzzle adventure that leaves a lasting impression.
