About Magman
If you like foddian games, challenge, fun and a little bit of anger, magman is just the beast for you. The production quality of this game is at the very bottom of any list of games you can come up with and you can bet you will spend more time finishing the game than I've spent building it. But there is a beauty in that.
I don't exactly know where, but there surely is.
Anyway, the game is a standard one-map foddian design. You spawn at the very bottom, in a cave. Your task? Get to the top.
Along the way, you'll encounter multiple obstacles that you have to overcome, using your hand-built electromagnet. You're the magman after all...
The game saves your progress at all times. No checkpoints, no difficulty-choosing prompt, just the game. The time to play depends hugely on your skill with foddian games. It can be around a few hours. But it can also be much, much longer.

[quote][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AI_slop][b]Warning: AI Slop[/b][/url] This game is partially or completely made with talentless, soulless AI generated content.[/quote] Magman is a bit of shovelware that DIG Games acquired, surprisingly this time DIG Games has not pushed another asset flip onto Steam, but this doesn't make Magman a real game. It's a basic Unity platformer template with a "Foddy" like magnetic swing mechanic, MS-Paint "art" and AI Slop for the rest of it... garbage that should never have been published anywhere, but DIG Games has this up on Steam because they want your money for trash. DIG Games have shown a repeat pattern of unethically dumping other people's work onto Steam as a cheap, nasty cash grab, through this account or through closely linked/alt accounts. Here's some examples so you can see for yourself: [list] [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1853720]Timings[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/packs/sky-jump-66321]Sky Jump Pack[/url] developed by SgLib Games [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1810720]Color Ball[/url]" = [url=https://www.sellanycode.com/item/2593/color-blast-3d]Color Blast 3D Sour…1 found this helpful
Magman is a game that knows exactly what kind of audience it wants to attract. Instead of chasing flashy visuals or cinematic storytelling, it embraces the philosophy of difficult physics-based platformers where every inch of progress must be earned. Developed and published by DIG Games, this indie title strips away unnecessary features and focuses entirely on the challenge of climbing from the depths of a cave to its summit using a handmade electromagnet. The result is a straightforward but demanding experience that rewards patience, determination, and mastery of its unique movement system. The gameplay revolves around a single objective: reach the top without giving up. While the concept sounds deceptively simple, the execution is anything but easy. Players must learn to control momentum, judge distances accurately, and carefully position the electromagnet to overcome increasingly difficult obstacles. There are no combat encounters, character upgrades, or special abilities to soften the challenge. Every successful maneuver comes from improving personal skill rather than relying on in-game progression. This creates a satisfying sense of accomplishment, as every section conquered …
