Pepper Grinder

Platform-adventure game built around a drill mechanic. You play as Pepper, a treasure hunter who uses her drill (called Grinder) to burrow through terrain, uncover collectibles, and fight pirates. The drilling isn't just movement—it's how you solve environmental puzzles and navigate each level's layout. Expect obstacle courses that require quick reflexes as you tunnel under surfaces, pop out at precise moments, and chain together momentum-based movements. Levels hide optional secrets that reward exploration off the main path. The game mixes traditional platforming with this subterranean drilling system, creating routes that shift between above-ground jumping and underground burrowing. Short levels keep the pace brisk. Works for players who enjoy momentum-focused platformers with a central gimmick that changes how you think about 2D space.
