Mr. Wendigo's Journey is a free game. This means that the source code is available to be studied, modified, and distributed. Most projects look for help with testing, documentation, graphics, etc., as well.

Mr. Wendigo's Journey is a public domain, suckless 2D platformer game inspired by the likes of SuperTux, Anarch and Super Mario Bros. Currently, the game is under development with only three levels and a basic moveset, alongside the aforementioned collectibles and enemies. There is also a level editor program, mwjedit, written with ncurses made for the game.

Gameplay[edit]

Playing as the titular Mr. Wendigo who is embarking on a quest to reach some dunes with mysterious gemstones ‒ those he's not interested in ‒ out of sheer boredom, you run and jump through several levels, encountering collectibles and baddies. There are green gems, health pickups, as well as "runes" that grant Wendigo special abilities, although they are hard to come across.
