Breakout Baby | Baby's First Step
A downloadable game
BREAKOUT BABY is a Pac-Man–infused horror roguelike that rewards mastery of its mechanics and precise execution as you progress from floor to floor. Every step — every turn of the corner — matters. One slip-up and it’s all over, for you and your baby. Be careful out there, and don’t forget your Go-Go Juice.

Collect all the pellets on a floor to gain access to the next, but be careful!
Your greed doesn’t go unnoticed.
The freaks are out to get you. Don't get too close, they bite.


Meet some new friends along the way and let them upgrade your abilities.
Don’t worry, they’re all very nice. Remember to say thank you!
Collect baby supplies like rattles, pacifiers and iPads for powerful effects.
You will need them.
Keep close watch on your baby to gain information on enemy positions.
Shake your baby awake when necessary.


Why not?
Also, here's the dev. Please pat his head.

WARNING FOR YOUNGER PLAYERS: DON'T SHAKE YOUR BABY IN REAL LIFE. IT'LL KILL THEM.
You win, and you can take ya, nasty baby too. Dope game to make it feel different from Dark Deception. I love the comedic bit and the pace of the game.
Really gives Dark Deception vibes. I LOVE IT!
...UGLY baby...
I LOVE DA BABY

ME
Can you publish this game on Google play pleeeeeeeeeeeease
Game was great absolutley loved it i played a hour of it and plan to go back and finish the demo
Shaking the baby awake is diabolically hilarious. Great game overall and I like the scary first person version that feels similar to Pac man but with more unique abilities and crazy enemies types to deal with while taking care of a weird, goofy caterpillar looking Jello baby of some sort. Lol XD
BREAKOUT BABY – SECRET ENDING + ALL SECRETS & ITEMS! Full Guide
I DON'T KNOW WHO'S BABY THIS IS BUT I NEED THIS BABY JUST AS MUCH AS IT NEEDS ME SO LET'S GET THROUGH THIS HELLSCAPE TOGETHER!! Youtube Link -
This looks like such a fun and weirdly creative mix The baby mechanics combined with the horror and roguelike gameplay are such a cool idea. Really curious to see how intense the later floors get! Great work on this one, seriously. Btw, are you currently looking to hire any artists, animators, or other developers for the game?
amy just stop bruh
Hey! I came across your game and spent a little time checking it out. The concept looks really interesting! Are you currently looking for an artist, developer, or animator for the project?
fun game, windows build works on linux btw.
really loved the bebe mechanics and mr fisher. though the horror could have been a bit better, the atmosphere is good but them chasing doesnt feel that scary after like a minute. and as another commenter said, also like the pacman style. waiting for the full game!
Im addicted to this game and i CAN NOT WAIT for the full release. This game is genuinely like a drug to me.
pac-man loop mit horror geht übelst crazy tbh
junge das mit go-go juice und baby wachshaken ist so komplett gestört cinema freu mich safe auf full release
:)
<3
highkey thought it would be generic backrooms garbage but the pacman gameplay loop actually goes crazy. absolute cinema. assemble cooking good here. cant wait for the full drop to lose my sanity entirely lmao
keep it
Absolutly loved the demo! Can't wait for the full release!
When escaping the door opens too slowly so you just die when being chased which you always are at the end and when in the sewers the big baby carrot guy gives you baby parts it can flal in the green goo and you cannot pick it up since it falls into the void
yes
doesnt work

where do you do this game an how you found asset an animation ı cant find them please say how can ı do that ı knew coding but ı cant do these think becuse ı dont find asset or vb and please say me how you can do this
learn how to model and animate. :) You can do it. It takes a bit of time, but once you have a certain skill, the possibilities for bringing your visions to life are endless. :)
I also recommend blender, a free open-source way to make models and animation for pretty much any purpose ^w^
