Henry the Cursor Saves Ducks

This game is a love letter to classic arcade games, to the kid I was who always dreamed of making one, and to every kid with a game of their own waiting to be made. I hope you enjoy it. — Jon Claude An ordinary arcade game cracks open. Henry has other plans. Henry the Cursor Saves the Ducks is a glowing arcade adventure about a ball that gains a will of its own. Break free of the court, gather a flock of named ducks, and find your way through a fractured world that keeps changing. FIND EVERY DUCK Guide Henry with your thumb, call nearby ducks and lead the flock home. Collect quarters to charge a screen-filling Rainbow Pulse. Ordinary enemies fall to your call; tougher creatures and bosses need something stronger. THE WORLD FIGHTS BACK Face walking paddles, swarming spiders, shooters and strange boss encounters. Dodge ice, grenades and guided projectiles. Work around windmills, moving paths and timed energy beams. Choose your difficulty when you start an adventure and carry it through that run. A STRANGER YEAR AHEAD Each rescue moves the calendar forward. Explore changing landscapes, unusual workplaces and far-future challenges. A warp zone on the first board offers a shortcut to later adventures. Short cutscenes, subtitles and a peculiar character language follow the people trying to get Henry back under control.
