Potatoman is looking for something. What that is he isn't entirely sure, but he'll know it when he finds it. But one thing is certain: every living thing he encounters seems to have an opinion. Also, they're trying to kill him. Potatoman Seeks the Troof is a short "potatosophical" action adventure game from the retro masters at Pixeljam. Trot and hop your way across several landscapes as you take in the wisdom from the animals, avoiding things like bouncing/growing cacti, flying bird eggs, piles of boulders, and a host of more creative obstacles. If you're lucky, you might even learn something along the way!

But we're not here to talk about Potatoman alone. Accompanying the little guy's release is the Pixeljam Octology, a collection of games, music, and other bonuses packaged together into neat little bundles. Grabbing Potatoman also provides you with Planeteri, an album of ambient music/visualizations, and the beta version of Bitku, a pixel comic creation tool/toy. You can also opt for plumper packages that include improved versions of Dino Run SE and Snowball with a handful of other extras, or nab the holiday bonus that includes a Dino Run text adventure (aww yeah!) and an alpha version of a new arena shooter. Basically, it's a whole lot of stuff, and it's all good stuff you'll love, too.

Pixeljam always does fun things, and the Potatoman/Octology combo release delivers on many fronts. Come for the relentless seeking of the troof, but stay for the music and other cool extras. Also, be sure to check out the Potatoman trailer, it's one of the more creative, well-produced, and hilarious indie game trailers out there.
