Team Phobic has announced the availability of a pre-release demo for Electropy. The demo contains 36 playable levels and can be downloaded for Windows and Mac OS X computers on the Electropy website. In the sidescrolling arcade action title players move across the playfield by grappling floating polygons and swinging from one to the next while collecting powerups and other items.

Electropy is a side scrolling action arcade title with a fundamental game play twist. Rather than directly moving your character, the idea is to grapple on to floating polygons in order to swing your way to the goal. The game features a wide selection of power-ups such as gravity change, invincibility, and flight thrusters to diversify game play. The title also includes over 130 levels of varying difficulty as well as the same fully functional editor we used to make all the levels in the game. Players are ranked via online scores that are uploaded through the game and can download replays of any submitted score.

Team Phobic is a group college students who have been working together on games for many years. They are based in Boulder, CO, but have friends in many places around the world. They develop games using as much free software as possible.
