Zachary's Abode

My name is Zachary Krodel. I am an aspiring music composer for film and video games. This is my personal website where I can share my music with the world. This website also doubles as my "abode" for all of my writings, art, video games, and other creations.

Go on your adventure with the speck, explore his little world, and meet new friends along the way. At the end of your adventure, you will witness first-hand the horror that is the fate of all specks. Note: Please note that this is a short, experimental game. It won’t make any sense unless you play it through to the end. It’s kind of like ImmorTall or Pazzon, if you’ve ever played those games.

There is also the GRID Forever mode, with an endless amount of randomly generated stages.

Download game: Click here A Look in to Your Soul is a challenging 2D platformer with a slight twist. I started this project after playing Matt Thorson’s “An Untitled Story”, my main inspiration for making this game. You start the game in Heaven. Your soul escapes from your body and you chase it to the Earth’s surface. After recovering your soul, you then begin the long and dangerous journey back up to Heaven, where you belong. During game play, you can release and control your soul at any time to reach high places, phase through spikes, or to solve puzzles. But your soul can’t handle everything! It’s times like these when you will have to go in alone. And there are many obstacles in your path, including spikes, fire, locked doors, hidden passages, crazy jumps, and the dreaded Guardians….
