Core Gameplay Loop

Transform and Traverse

In Sprout, players take on the role of a character with the unique ability to toggle between a giant and a tiny form. Navigate through vibrant and challenging platforming levels, utilizing Sprout's size-changing powers to overcome obstacles and solve puzzles. In his giant form, Sprout is stronger, able to move heavy objects and break barriers, but his size makes him heavier and slower. Conversely, when tiny, Sprout becomes limber and agile, capable of wall jumps and fitting through small spaces.

Size-Specific Abilities

Sprout's adventure is defined by the clever use of his two forms. In his giant form, he can:

• Heavy Weight: Weigh down against obstacles or fall faster..
• Strong: Push large items to create new paths or solve puzzles.

When small, Sprout can:

• Wall Jump: Leap off walls to reach higher platforms or cross large gaps.
• Squeeze Through Gaps: Access areas that are inaccessible to his larger form.
• Light: Weight can easily be overpowered by obstacles
