Never Give Up is a 2D platform game developed by Massive Monster and Tasselfoot and published by Armor Games on August 13, 2019. The game follows a stick figure man named Blue who awakes in a strange facility and tries to escape it. The main gameplay consists of several level "sets", each of which contain several increasingly difficult iterations on the same level. The game is a reboot of the Give Up series, also published by Armor Games, and includes full voice acting by Arin Hanson of Game Grumps.[1]
Gameplay
Never Give Up is divided into different worlds each containing different levels leading up to a boss battle. The levels consist of several versions of the same basic room layout, increasing in difficult as the player progresses through them by adding additional hazards and lengthening the level. After dying enough times within a level, players can skip past it by selecting a "give up" option.[1][2][3][4]
