Tales from Space: About a Blob

Tales from Space: About a Blob is a puzzle platformer that scrolls sideways and tells the story of an alien race called the Blobs. The player takes control of one of these blobs as they attempt to break free from their confinement in a laboratory by sliding and hopping along a series of 17 platforms. In addition, smaller puzzles need to be solved, which is accomplished by ingesting materials, expanding in size, and then expelling these items at the appropriate moment. As the player advances through the game, the blob will gradually develop various unique abilities, such as magnetism and electricity.
