You are food.

As a Helminth—a native inhabitant of the depths of one of Jupiter's moons—you and your brothers, sisters, and offspring provide humans a lot of protein. And yes, you are tasty. But do you want to end up in the stomach of a gluttonous humans? Or will you find a way out?

Gameplay

Navigate the deadly human facility by mastering precision platforming and environmental puzzle-solving to achieve your escape.
