Öoo is a short, 2–3 hour exploration puzzle-platformer set inside the belly of a giant bird.
You play as a bomb caterpillar, using your explosive body to find a way out. With only three simple actions—move, place a bomb, and detonate—you’ll break walls, create platforms, and chain multiple explosions to overcome obstacles that at first seem impossible. Success depends not on precision, but on creativity, experimentation, and careful observation.

The most important thing is knowledge. Even if you reach a dead end, the experiences you’ve gained along the way will help you uncover new paths. With no words at all, the game’s refined level design naturally leads you to moments of realization, while its minimal set of mechanics is distilled into a tightly crafted, waste-free experience.

Its soft, charming pixel art makes it approachable even for those who dislike insects, while playful sound effects and memorable melodies bring the unique world to life. A small yet deep adventure, packed full of moments of inspiration.
