Klaus

Klaus is a precision-based puzzle platformer with a self-aware narrative and unique PS4 touchpad-based controls. Klaus's tight & challenging platforming takes inspiration from hyper-precise classics such as Super Meat Boy & Megaman combined with a tense and emotionally engaging narrative akin to Limbo and Thomas Was Alone.

Klaus follows an office worker who wakes up in a basement with no idea who or where he is. His only clue is the word 'KLAUS' tattooed on his arm, he is forced to escape the mechanical & constructivist world in which he finds himself a prisoner. Along with another playable character called K1—a friendly brute—he embarks on an existential journey, exploring the idea of the fourth wall and awareness of the player playing the game.

• Two playable characters with unique skill sets and cooperative gameplay

PlayStation Store Description

Klaus is a 2D puzzle platformer with a self-aware narrative. Its design takes inspiration from classics games combined with a tense and emotionally engaging story.

Klaus discovers his identity while trying to escape from a mysterious basement. It‘s a self-discovery journey in which Klaus will remember his past through interactive memories. Each memory is playable in a unique way with different mechanics than other sections of the game. Just like in real life, the dreamy worlds of the memories don’t follow the same rules of the rest of the game.

During your journey, a "friendly" guy called K1 joins the team. K1 is a brawler, at least in part, and with his destructive prowess he’s able to smash obstacles and do Shoryukens without breaking a sweat. Klaus and K1 can be controlled separately or cooperatively to solve puzzles, although sometimes they’ll be split apart. Each character, of course, has his own motives.
