Mask Around: The Sequel to Mask Up Delivers More Gooey Action!

Following the success of 2020's bizarre roguelike platformer, Mask Up, developer Rouli returns with Mask Around, a sequel that expands on the original's unique gameplay. Remember that yellow ooze? It's back, and it's brought some friends.

While Mask Up focused primarily on 2D brawling, Mask Around adds a new dimension with 2D shooting mechanics. Players can seamlessly switch between gunning down enemies and utilizing their goo-based abilities for close-quarters combat. However, this precious yellow ooze remains a limited resource, demanding strategic usage, particularly during challenging boss encounters.

Strategic Goo Management and Polished Gameplay

Mask Around, currently available on Google Play (with an iOS release yet to be announced), significantly enhances the original formula. It's not just about maintaining your goo supply; it's about strategically deploying it alongside your arsenal of weapons. The improved graphics further enhance the overall experience.

The game successfully retains the core gameplay of its predecessor while introducing substantial new features, making it a worthwhile upgrade for fans of the original and a compelling experience for newcomers alike.
