BeautiFun Games is back after its latest puzzle-platformer Nihilumbra. This time, its upcoming title is Professor Lupo and his Horrible Pets.

The announcement comes out with a trailer, which demonstrates the overall story of the story-driven game. You can watch it below:

Experience the job of an intern for a rude scientist

As you can infer from the game's name (that's such a needlessly long name), Professor Lupo and his Horrible Pets tells the story of Professor Lupo on his Aurora Space Station. Professor Lupo is a mad scientist, wandering around the universe to collects as many alien species as possible to fill his collection. He called them "Horrible Pets".

That's what he says ...

But one day, the space station was attacked by an anonymous force, which set the aliens free. As a result, the harmless-looking aliens turn into the deadliest creatures and flee.

The space station was struck by an unknown force

Professor Lupo is planning to sell his collection at auction, so he can't let that be.

This is where you join in. You'll control the intern of the Professor, given the duty to act as bait for those hungry monsters. Accidentally, you will find the hidden secret behind Aurora Space Station and also have chances to find something about your past, too.

Looks how happy you are with your internship!

The game was described by the developer as a "puzzle-adventure game strongly focused on the narrative", and it lives up to its name!

There will be 100 breath-taking levels in the game. All of these levels feature "clever puzzle gameplay mechanics", and they will definitely be challenging.

The puzzles will not be at spoon-fed level!

In order to survive from the mouth of the ferocious aliens, you'll have to learn the habits of each type. As the aliens are scattering all over the space station, the knowledge of their habits will help you collect items and get through the levels without being eaten alive!

The developer has promised that the game will take players over 12 hours playing the games with its values. With fully English voiced characters, that will be 12 hours of enjoyment!
