A 2D platform adventure through the polluted planet Raguy
The briefing
In Blue's Journey, the planet Raguy has been corrupted by pollution after an invasion by the Daruma tribe. Blue, a specialist of the Leaf Dump, sets out to save Princess Fa, who has fallen ill from the pollution.
Traverse platforming stages, avoid traps, fight enemies, and defeat a special boss at the end of each level. Blue can use a leaf attack to stun enemies while full-sized, then pick them up and throw them. He can also shrink to access narrow spaces, though shrinking prevents him from attacking. Power-ups can strengthen or alter his leaf attack, and flowers can be collected to purchase items at special huts.
Traps, bottomless pits, enemy attacks, and projectiles can cost Blue a heart. The game supports solo play or simultaneous two-player action, with the second player controlling a green version of Blue.
