chaotic drainage
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
This is 'chaotic drainage', a new video game from Outhouse Media.

These enemies will also have spikes that can be used to grab enemies and bomb-like items.
The 15-minute gameplay will have some features which are reminiscent of the classic Castlevania titles. The
