Steam Store description

Defeat monsters? Check. Save Bulbhouse? Check. Family complete? Check. Everything seems to be just fine... But not for long! When Grandparaffine sends Bulb Boy to venture into the eerie depths of the basement in a search of a precious jar full of delicious jam, it quickly turns out that this mission will not be as easy as it might seem. And by saying that we don't mean problems such as a missing key to the doors. We talk about navigating through the dark, shadowy corners of the cellar... Oh, and about facing sticky jelly creatures and their spine-tingling boss that wants Bulb Boy's head for his own. Yeah. Bulb Boy 2: Jar of Despair is the sequel to the hit and award-winning indie game that combines point & click adventure with horror game. The original visual style of the game is inspired by 90’s cartoons and emphasizes the grotesqueness of the production, full of cute creatures and disgusting details, shown in close-ups. Solving tricky puzzles and facing jelly monsters will slowly unfold a twisted story full of unpredictable twists and turns. And all this accompanied by original music and mind-scratching sound effects! 🟡 The original visual style inspired by 90's cartoons 🟡 Lots of delicious jam and grotesque jelly monsters 🟡 Close-ups showing disgusting details (caught in 4k, you know...) 🟡 Full controller support 🟡 Game perfect for Halloween and not just then!
