Doughboy

A living piece of raw dough escapes a giant castle kitchen.

Play Free Demo See it in motion

Free · a short demo, the opening of a bigger adventure · keyboard, gamepad or touch

Squash, stretch, squeeze

Flatten into a pancake to slip under rolling pins, then pop back into shape. You are soft, but the controls are sharp.

Be your own rope

Stretch a dough arm to hooks, rings and hanging pans, swing across the gaps and stick to cloth and timber.

Learn from the kitchen

Find a small knife, study its shape, and reshape your own hand into a blade. No inventory — just dough.

A kitchen the size of a world

Bowls are cliffs, spoons are bridges and the pantry shelves climb out of sight. Something with wings lives at the top.

About this demo

This is a free vertical slice: the real opening of a larger adventure — the Kneading Table, the High Pantry, the locked Spicery and a boss at the top. It exists to find out whether Doughboy should grow into a full game. If you finish it, the one question at the end really helps.
