Bōl-Man
A downloadable game for Windows
With a bowl-shaped hat, Bōl-Man bombards his way through bands of bourgeois breadwinners in his brawl with the bigwigs of the Bowl-Hat bureaucracy. He bundles boundless bounties along his way to build the brawn necessary to break through all who block his way.
Work your way through the maze-like Bowl-Hat factories while fighting the employees and stealing as much money as possible to leave your mark in this world.
Gameplay:
In each maze, there are four keycards to collect. Collecting all four unlocks the exit. There will be arrows pointing to the four keycards and the exit at all times. The employees will leave you alone at first, but will eventually try to chase you down.
You can use the "Slow" power-up to slow employees down and the "Scare" power-up to punish them. The maze can be difficult to navigate in the dark, but using the "Pulse" power-up or collecting all the gold coins will brighten the maze. The "Speed" power-up increases your speed and can help you escape danger or catch up to employees for an epic beatdown.
You can get bonus cash by beating employees during scare mode and completing the level within set times that scale with the level. The levels get bigger as you progress, so the game might crash, freeze, or slow down at a certain point.
