My 2 person indie studio, Oil Leak Games, recently released our puzzle adventure game, Mechanical MainFrame!
It was released Mechanical MainFrame as part of a Michigan game developer bundle in February of 2021.
In Mechanical MainFrame you wander, poke, and fiddle your way through the goddess’ decaying sanctum to solve her cryptic puzzles imbedded in ancient technologies and save her files before all is lost. It is a surreal ambient puzzle adventure, inspired by 2000’s technology and nostalgia.
