š Share this article Unveiling a Unusual Steam Demo: Playing as a Turdy Character with the Goal to Reach the Toilet Steam Next Fest is in full swing, and gamers have found a variety of entertaining independent titles. But, one stands out for its unconventional concept. Titled Unko Technica, this retro-inspired jumping adventure features a protagonist that is literally a dung striving to make its way to a commode. As a fun fact, "Unko" means "poop." The gameplay is straightforward: you only need a jump control. Across one hundred fifty levels, battle mini-bosses and visit a market to buy skins for your dung hero. Execute your movements carefully, since one wrong move forces beginning again. Jump off bubbles to launch your character higher, cross crumbling ledges, and activate triggers to unlock new areas. Gather UN-KOINS to purchase challenging stages as the action ramps up. Visually, the game boasts vibrant stages and an amazing background music. Its minimalist visual style with moving geometric shapes evokes memories of gamers of old favorites like Earthbound. While it's difficult to recall other games where you control a coiled turd, video games have long incorporated toilet humor. For example, in Death Stranding, you can make grenades from protagonist waste. Titles such as Palworld and Ark: Survival Evolved employ manure as plant food. And of course, such content is present heavily in the South Park RPG The Stick of Truth. Putting aside its humorous concept, Unko Technica has already earned notable awards, such as being named best at Bandai Namco's indie contest in 2023. A playable preview is available at present on Steam, with the full game set to debut on Steam on November 19.
