Spud's Quest has finally been released. The game received favorable mentions today on Kotaku and PC Gamer

In the game, players take on the role of Spud and his friend Prince Charming, who has been cursed by an evil wizard and turned into a frog. The pair set on a journey to uncover four ancient elemental essences that have the power to banish the evil and remove the curse.

The gameplay is often referred to as a mix between The Legend of Zelda, Metroid, and the Dizzy series. It contains the temples of Zelda games, the power-ups and abilities of Metroid, and the item-based puzzles of the Dizzy games. It also features a switch mechanic to toggle control between Spud and Prince Charming, in which teamwork is used to progress.

Get it at the Spud's Quest website for $4.99. The OST is also available for purchase.

Little update, released a demo for the game.

It contains a huge chunk of the quest from the beginning of the story right until the end of the first temple- that's well over an hour of playtime. The full game contains five temples and over 350 screens.

Get the demo from the Spud's Quest website.

The game has also been accepted onto the Desura service and will be available next week
