Block 17

Block 17 will change you.

A World of Crushing Horror Travel through the dark corridors of the massive prison complex Block 17 on Mars. Face the horrors lurking within, upgrade your gear and body, and prepare for brutal encounters with powerful creatures. Despite being a pixel-art platformer, every detail is carefully designed to feel logical, grounded, and alive.
Rebirth Comes at a CostThe protagonist is a mechanic summoned to fix a malfunction in the prison's electrical system. But the moment he starts, the lights go out, a blow to the head follows – and he wakes up surrounded by monsters.
When you die, a bot restores you using your DNA. The process is far from perfect – damaged genetic fragments are replaced with samples stored in the bot's database. These replacements provide useful enhancements – but at the cost of DNA corruption, and too much corruption will end your journey.
Your Choices Define Your Path

Block 17 is not just a run-and-gun platformer – we want to tell a story, reveal the personalities of our characters, and breathe life into this world. When you're surrounded by darkness and fear, the best way to fight terror is with humor: certain situations, dialogues, or characters break the tension with cynical, darkly funny moments.

Meet the Denizens of Block 17 You will encounter not only monstrous lifeforms, but also an artificial intelligence created to maintain order – its motives unclear – and a sentient biological entity desperately trying to reach the surface, along with rare survivors fighting to escape.Your choices will determine who you become and whose side you're truly on.
Upgrade and Adapt

Find secrets hidden throughout the prison, navigate gloomy corridors, explore rooms, and upgrade your weapons and bot's abilities. The game features many unique enemies with distinct abilities that will create numerous challenging situations. Environmental storytelling elements are designed to shed light on what happened in Block 17.
Cinematic Pixel-Art Atmosphere We've put great effort into the visuals – even with pixel art, we strive for cinematic lighting and an expressive atmosphere so that every moment feels alive and threatening. We are constantly developing our own solutions to make the light and effects as spectacular as possible.So, the development is in full swing.
