Looks like a fun little game and who can complain at free!

Yes, it's completely free, and no we're not going to bait and switch you and suddenly start charging for it. I made the game mostly in my spare time over the last 18 months in Game Maker, so it was pretty cheap for Curve to produce. The whole thing was basically just me messing around (and enjoying learning things like the online sharing/leaderboards). It's the exact same way Explodemon was created, only we never released that prototype. This one has had an extra bit of spit and polish applied, but it's really just a labour of love the same as Explodemon was.
This time around, we're happy to put out this version of the game for people to play and enjoy. We're not really in the position of self-funding titles at the moment, however, if this were to become popular enough, then you never know, we might find someone interested in helping us enhance it and take it further.
Meanwhile, it's just a fun game for everyone to play for free.
Oh yeah, and if you do feel like contributing, then yeah, that's what the Explodemon PC upsell screen is there for.

Stealth games are awesome. Hiding from The Man, skulking in shadows, the thrill of the unseen infiltration. But why do they have to be so... slow?
Introducing Stealth *******: stealth, with a great big kick up the arse. A fast-paced, frenetic, one-step-away-from-chunky-death melange of sneaking, platforming, hacking and cursing. A whole lot of fun. It's like Metal Gear Solid and Super Meat Boy had a baby out of wedlock. Semi-literally.
Jump, sneak, and be horribly dismembered through 28 levels hand-crafted by our crack team of in-house design geniuses, some of the same folk behind the critically-acclaimed Fluidity/Hydroventure, and the retro-styled PSN platformer Explodemon!.
And once you're done with those? Fear not - Stealth ******* includes a FULL in-game level editor - the same we used to create the bundled levels - and even allows you to share, play and rate the community's creations from across the world.
And if you thought that was cool, we've not even got to the best bit yet: Stealth ******* is free. Not 'freemium'. Completely free.
Endless fun. Zero cost. What are you waiting for?
