Martin: Prank & Run

The pitch

It's 1960 and Martin is nine, curly-mopped, big-eared and grinning. He has a whole sunny suburb to annoy. Pull capers on his dad, Nelson, then get out before anyone works out who did it. Salt the sugar bowl. Slip a frog in a hat. Mind his mother, Rena, too. She's a snake in the backyard, and Martin thinks her lunges are hugs.

A top-down, open-world prank-and-run game in 16-bit pixel art, in the spirit of the classic SNES adventures.
