The gameplay of Incredipede focuses on the character Quozzle, an Incredipede with the ability to morph to complete short challenges.[4][5] As the game progresses, new elements such as lava, water or wind appear.[5]

Development

[edit]

Incredipede was developed by Colin Northway while visiting numerous countries with his wife, Sarah.[6] While reading the Wikipedia article for jumping spiders, Colin found Thomas Shahan, who later became the game artist for Incredipede.[6] Incredipede has been submitted to Steam Greenlight, but Northway feels that if Greenlight did not exist, the game would have been launched on Steam earlier.[7] It was greenlit on 10 January 2013[8] after being announced as a 2013 IGF finalist.[9]

Incredipede was included in the Humble Bundle PC and Android 7 bundle, presented on 15 October 2013.
