Summary
My name is Andrew Armstrong from Fermenter. We've just released my game, David, a physics-based platforming boss-fighter, on iOS, Windows, and Mac. It'd make my dreams come true if you check it out.
Description
You play David, an awfully small abstracted chosen hero tossed into a blissfully simple world overrun by giant culminations of evil physics-beasts. As David, you are given a slingshot-esque gift that you will have to use to conquer your colossus foes. Hold, aim, and fling to attack (Angry Birds style!).
Think Limbo + Shadow of the Colossus + Angry Birds.
Features
a 9-level Campaign, 3 Additional Bonus Levels, a Survival/Arena/RPG mode, a Secret Basket-ball-pit Minigame, a Groovy 6-song Original Soundtrack included with purchase, and HATS!
Video
“Long story short: it’s really awesome.”

Indie Game Enthusiast - "While I really like the abstract minimalist visuals, the gameplay is what truly shines here: discovering each new boss, lining up shots as you fly through the air, the intense close calls."
Joguindie - "David, joguinho abstrato sobre lutas entre criaturas colossais e a vida"

About Fermenter
Residing in Brooklyn, New York, Andrew Armstrong, his brain, and his computer are teaming up to rule the world. Here's something they said in unison one time at a party: "We're Fermenter, and we make games for you. Yes, YOU. We exist to excite you to a point of change. So play, friends."
