Devoid
Become a soul keeper!
Devoid is a 2D platformer where you collect souls from exploring and solving puzzles. The game behaves like a platformer when you're in the white zone, however, when you enter the black zone, you become a ghost and you are able to float freely around the stage. Made during the University of Washington Game Development Club's duality themed game jam in Winter 2020. Can also be purchased in the bundle (Not available yet)!
Controls:
- WASD / Arrow Keys: Movement
- Space: Jump / Propel

Honest to god, Devoid was my favorite game of the week. I don't know if it's the aesthetic or the mechanics, but Devoid just felt good the whole time I played it. I'd love to see it turn into something larger. I just want to play a full length game as a ghost dolphin knocking boxes in and out of the abyss.
Go to 19:19 if you want to see my playthrough.
Thank you for playing the game! I was hoping to add some more levels before the game jam ended :( But I’m glad you enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed making it! I also love how you solved the room with the upside down lamppost, I found out that you can solve it like that when a friend play-tested the game (the intended way was to remove one box from the room, a platform appears when there’s only one box in the room, I was hoping that people would try to push the box to jump up and accidentally remove boxes from the room, but it was really unclear, my bad) and decided to leave it in and I’m happy that someone did it that way.
Yeah, no way would I have figured that out. I would've moved literally every box in the game into the room before giving up.
Thanks!
This was awesome. I really dig the black and white style. Good work!
