This isn't Carrion, it's The Dweller! Play as this evil entity that only wants to consume fools that dare to invade its ancient home! There's limitations to how you can traverse, making every screen a puzzle you need to solve.

The difficulty curve is a bit all-over-the-place, as it feels like some stages are effortless (excluding the obligatory ones that introduce a new mechanic) while others are just obtusely complex where I swear what felt like cheating are literally the only solutions.

Still, overall it was a neat little game. I like some of the turns it took in its design the closer it got to the end. I can see something like this expanding greatly in a sequel, but who knows if that'll ever happen?
