Description

Set in land where common physics apply, but everything else looks different. You are Tiny, a technophile guy with a ray cutter, a gripping-device and a fine attitude towards the world. But now your nemesis Big again stole the only heritage your grandpa left you: A nice pair of white, fine rib underpants! And he’s surely up to no good, why else would he take them to that forsaken desert… Where noone goes! So load up that selfmade raygun and rope device (snitched from the local hardware store) and take your annoying and jabbering backpack to accompany you. It’s always been good use to your gramps. Besides, the robot taxi to the desert is waiting! Run, jump, drag, shove and laser your way through the ultimately ancient scenery, gain back those underpants!

History

Tiny & Big started as a loose student project in 2009. After releasing a first beta tech demo in May 2009. The demo was entitled Tiny & Big : Up that Mountain and included one level, which gave the player a first impression of the core mechanics. We received a lot of positive feedback and decided to forge the prototype into a full game. One Year later, we founded Black Pants Studio in 2011, were invited to the IGF, received several awards and grew more and more into making indie games and driving the studio train. The final version of Tiny & Big: Grandpa’s Leftovers was unclasped upon humanity in summer 2012 via a variety of digital platforms and as a boxed, german version as well. Since then, we’ve never stopped working on games and stuff.
