Defunct is an indie adventure game with a focus on flow, speed and an engaging world.
You are a broken robot that accidentally falls out of a giant cargo ship onto a post-human Earth, now inhabited by robots. You have to get back to your ship before it's too late!

You are equipped with a Gravitize engine. It is used to create a separate gravity around yourself; this is the main source of your speed. Use this in downhills to accelerate. But be careful, using it uphill will slow you down. In addition to this the world is full of different speed boosts such as Enerjuice, which you can pick up and use to go faster.
If you purchase something through a post on our site, Slickdeals may get a small share of the sale.

"What's the name of the game?"

"The game is defunct"

"Okay, but what is the name of the game?"

"I told you, the game is defunct"

"I don't care if it is defunct, just tell me the name of the game!"

Reviews aren't terrible and I have the gold points to cover it.

Worth a flyer.

I did last time it was cheap, it's not that fun. Sure it's .24 cents, but your time is more valuable. There are so many other quality games that are much more deserving of our time.

Wow, this looks actually pretty fun for 25 cents, or maybe that review was just particularily compelling to me. Most of the huge price drop games look like either shovelware or mobile type games, but maybe this is the first case where I kind of hope the eShop hacking might actually help raise a game's profile. This was totally off my radar amidst everything else getting thrown onto the platform.

That said, I haven't played it yet, so maybe it is junk.

That's too bad. I played through this game a year or so ago and had lots of fun. Played through to the end and thought it was a little short, but I enjoyed the ending and the gameplay overall. Definitely worth a quarter if not a few bucks.

Got this at some point (I think it was $0.49) and enjoyed it for a few hours. I figured I got my money's worth.
