Gameplay

Dweep is a cute and cuddly purple creature who must negotiate a series of dangerous obstacles to rescue defenseless baby Dweeps.

Obstacles include lasers, heat plates, bombs, and lots of other hazards. Dweep must bypass these using only available non-violent tools such as mirrors, wrenches, and buckets of water. The non-violent, mentally challenging nature of the game was a deliberate design feature.

The game package contains 30 original game levels plus one secret bonus level. Dweep Gold also includes 5 free bonus levels and 2 expansion packs (20 levels each), as well as a number of custom levels.

Awards

  • Dweep won the 2000 Shareware Industry Award.
  • The expansion pack, Dweep Gold, won the 2001 Shareware Industry Award for Best Action/Arcade Game. (beating out Arkanoid for the honour)

    Dweep was created and programmed by Steve Pavlina, with music by Michael Huang. Pavlina describes the process he used to create the game in one of the posts on his blog, www.stevepavlina.com [1]
