PC Game - Boondog

A puzzle platformer which draws parallels to the Abe's Oddysee series.In this exceptionally neat platformer, you play a slow and cautious fellow whose goal it is to escape from some sort of factory setting laden with traps. With the aid only of dexterity and the ability to really regroup yourself after death, you must work though the dozen provided levels.

The game's most obvious feature / selling point is the similarities in style that it has with the PS1 game "Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee" in that movement is restricted to tile-based controlling and with the exclusion of pushing barrels and standing on buttons, the character rarely directly interacts with the environment itself.
