About Embodiment
Take control of M-bd3 (pronounced Embody) an amorphous blob created by scientists with the ability to take control of skeletons. Use their abilities as well as your own to traverse the facility. While along the way avoiding hazards and solving puzzles using your abilities.
Take control of skeletons that each give their own set of abilities that you must use in order to survive.
As the human, pick up and throw boxes to help traverse and push buttons.
As the cat, use your speed and agility to cross chasms and climb up walls to reach the end.
As the fish, you can swim underwater and perform a tailspin to activate switches.
And in your blob form, use your tendrils to grab stuff and swing through the air.
So, help M-bd3 overcome the many challenges that lie before him and reach the end of the facility.

Embodiment is one of literally thousands of retro 2D platformers infesting Steam and lowering the average quality of all video games everywhere... and I'm not kidding. Searching for "platformers" on the Steam store page yields over 17,000 results! Is this one of the best of those? Absolutely not. This is a particularly mediocre 2D retro pixel platformer with a somewhat nonsense theme. There's a few interesting puzzle mechanics like taking different forms, but whatever inventiveness may feature here is drowned out by the incredibly weak technical delivery, which was surely the main driver behind this failing completely. Platforming is an old, mostly dead genre, and this lacklustre experience, while it doesn't have an upfront cost, isn't saving the genre... it's no surprise this failed to capture any attention from gamers in the era of immersive 3D gaming. On the topic of visuals, the weak looking 2D retro assets seem like they'd be more at home in a browser game or a mobile app. 3D graphics accelerators hit the mainstream of PC gaming in the mid 1990's with cards like the ATI Rage and Voodoo3D, there's no excuse for such poor 2D graphics in 2025.

Day one of asking when are you coming back
This was fun ... for 2 stages. Then I got to the end of the stage with 3 doors and 3 treadmills, and it became unplayable instantly. The camera zooms in too close to see properly, and the treadmills don't work when the character is supposed to be running on it. I played the stage more than once hoping it was a glitch, but apparently, that's how it's supposed to play out.
Cute, nifty idea, but needs some work. One part in the game is almost un-solveable, since you are doing some timed stuff towards the left of the screen, that is making game-progressing changes towards the right of the screen, but the camera angle doesn't let you see what you're doing. Wait until they patch this before playing ...
