The Cub is a 2D platformer set on a post-apocalyptic Earth reclaimed by nature, where players guide a resilient boy running, jumping, and sliding through overgrown ruins left behind by the elite who fled to Mars.

Its fluid momentum-based movement and retro-inspired visuals recall classic side-scrollers while telling a story about survival on a world humanity has abandoned. Environmental hazards and radio broadcasts add texture to its atmospheric journey.
