TANGLEWOOD® is a brand new and original game for the SEGA Mega Drive and Genesis, to be released on cartridge following its successful Kickstarter campaign. A true 16-bit, nostalgic platforming experience running on genuine SEGA hardware, that will make fans of gaming's golden era feel warm and fuzzy.

Coming Soon to SEGA Mega Drive, Genesis, PC, Mac, and Linux.

Set in a fictional world, the game follows a young creature, Nymn, who is separated from the family pack after the sun sets. Unable to get back to the safety of the underground home, Nymn must find a way to survive the night terrors and get to morning. TANGLEWOOD’s world is a dangerous one after dark, and Nymn must use skills of evasion, special abilities, traps and trickery to defeat predators.

TANGLEWOOD is programmed in pure 68000 assembly language, using original SEGA development tools and processes from the 1990s.

Original soundtrack by freezedream.

Listed as SNES on IndieDB because there's no Mega Drive/Genesis option.
