Gum Girl

What is Gum Girl?

"Gum Girl" is a vibrant, and beautiful puzzle-platformer about a girl determined to pursue her bubble gum dreams. Set in the cosmic space base, the game poses challenges to the players to harness the power of bubble gum for temporary platforms, solving puzzles, and navigating hazardous terrains. Thanks to its quirky concept and colorful aesthetics, "Gum Girl" focuses on refreshing the age-old platform mechanics with a generous blend of creativity and challenge in cosmic adventures.

How to Play

In "Gum Girl," you play as the protagonist that traverses the different areas of the space base. Your main tool is bubble gum, which you shoot to create platforms, allowing you to either get to higher places or cross a gap. You need to be quick in your thinking and faster in your moves since the gum platforms tend to vanish as soon as you set foot on them. You will use your cunning and patience to avoid obstacles, get through the puzzles, and defeat the ultimate boss-the vicious drill threatening your solar system.

Tips & Tricks

• Time Your Jumps: Since gum platforms vanish after some time, it's vital to time your jumps perfectly.
• Plan Ahead: Look forward to each level and plot your course before shooting the gum. This way, you'll end up not stuck or trapped.
• Use the Environment: Some levels offer interactive elements you can work with, so keep your eyes open for hidden switches or objects you can move.
• Stay Calm: If you fall, don't get discouraged. Just go back and try again.
