Tremblay Kinfolk Overdrive

TKO is the world's most famous vaporwave action sitcom. It also has a lot of things to say about surrealism, art and the feeling of succumbing to an amazing technicolor existential crisis.

If you can, please download a native build of the game. The web version is just offered as a fallback, and some features might not work.

[About]

The Tremblay Kinfolk was animated sitcom that launched in 19█3. Panned by critics but beloved - or at least tolerated - by audiences, it still has a dedicated fanbase. in Given the show's fascination with the technology of its day, a videogame spinoff was proposed, but it never made it out of development hell. 

This is a fan project, reconstructing the proposed game from leaked screenshots, documentation, and a demo stolen from the 19██ Consumer Electronics Show. The plot roughly follows three of the most beloved episodes from the show's long history.
