Short Summary
Knick Knax is a fun and colorful puzzle game experience for all ages. The game follows Bobo and Kiki, two adorable sock monkeys, as they search for creative ways to reunite with their friends.
Players progress through a world of common everyday settings but from the perspective of a small stuffed animal. The player is encouraged to explore the environment for solutions to physics-based platforming puzzles. By manipulating the world around you, the player can create bridges that span otherwise impossible chasms and obstacles.
The game will also include a level editor that allows players can create and share their own levels.
The team is working very hard at creating an experience that can be enjoyed by anyone. In fact, our playtests have already shown high levels of kid approval:

The Team
The Knick Knax team consists of 13 hardworking designers, programmers, and artists. We are all either students or alumni of the University of Advancing Technology. We hope that this project not only shows off our respective talents and passion for game development, but also opens doors for even greater opportunities within the industry.
Stay tuned for some in-depth stories behind some of our devlopers!
What We Need & What You Get
The game itself is already well into its development. All we need, and all we hope you can help us with, is the means to promote the game to the masses! We are confident that Knick Knax has the potential to be a success if only its prospective players knew of its existence. Will you help us spread the word?
So what are we going to do with the money you have so kindly offered to our cause?
- Promote the game across social media
- Provide further content even after the game's release
- Pay the development fees to have our game available across mobile platforms including iOS and Android
So what do you get for helping us out?
-
$1: Your name will be added to the game's credits and you'll gain instant beta access when the game goes live
- $5: You will receive the above prizes as well as an ad-free version of the game upon release
- $10: You will get everything listed above as well as any add-ons that Knick Knax adds in the future
Risks & Challenges
What obstacles do we have?
At the moment we are focused on refining the last few levels. Our main risk comes next semester when the project will lose some of its developers to graduation. The game will no longer require such a large team but the reduction could potentially limit the amount of work that can be accomplished in any given time period.
