What BADLAND is and who it suits

BADLAND is a side-scrolling action adventure platformer. You control a forest dweller moving through a fairy-tale woodland that has something wrong at its core, and the game is built around the traps and obstacles you meet along the way. The listing describes the physics-based gameplay and the atmospheric graphics and audio as its main draw.

The listing cites several awards from 2013 and 2014, including an Apple Design Award and a Nordic Game indie award. It is rated for everyone and is aimed at players who like precise, trial-and-error platforming, and at groups who want to play together on one screen.

Single-player campaign and its traps

The single-player campaign has 100 levels. Each one is built around obstacles that react to physics, so getting through often means working out how an object swings, spins or falls before you move. The developer says more levels will arrive in later updates.

Controls are one-touch, paired with level designs that rely on timing. The listing describes the game as a mix of physics puzzles and fast action.

Local multiplayer and cooperative play

The competitive multiplayer mode is for up to four players on the same device. It has 23 levels, and the developer says more multiplayer content will follow. In this mode players push each other into hazards, and the last one standing wins.

A cooperative mode lets up to four players get through the modified single-player campaign together. The listing presents it as the gentler way to play with friends, as opposed to the competitive mode.

Building and sharing your own levels

The level editor lets you create your own levels and share them with other players. The listing describes sharing and playing as the main loop of the editor.

Level World is a separate feed of new levels that the developer adds over time, so there is always something new to play without waiting for a full update.

Controllers, Cloud Save and Android TV

The game supports full game controllers, which the listing highlights for play on NVIDIA SHIELD devices and Android TV. It also has an immersive display mode and Cloud Save, so progress can carry across sessions, according to the developer.

The game is designed for Android phones, tablets and TV sets. The listing says it was featured on NVIDIA TegraZone.
