Publisher: Thalamus · Genre: Platform

On the planet Tantris there are the Triphylios of Nem plants, which help keep the population alive and the vast forests pure. But increasing industry has led to high levels of pollution, damaging crops and destroying forests. To cope with impending doom, the Gnostics constructed the Leg, a heat probe shaped like a leg that can launch a heat-absorbing ball. This can then be controlled independently of the leg and absorb the heat of the Zeal smog flames and then pass this heat on to the three plants that need to be saved. When the ball has absorbed heat and is returned to the leg, the leg gains energy and the pass count is increased. When this counter reaches 9999, the Leg can teleport to the next jungle level, where it can search for more Zeal Smog Flames to finally save the Triphylios.
