CarneyVale: Showtime on Games for Windows

CarneyVale: Showtime is a vertical ragdoll platform game for Xbox LIVE Community Games. In the game, you play as Slinky, a circus acrobat trying to rise up the ranks by performing acrobatic tricks and death-defying stunts through increasingly complex arenas.

You can manipulate a wide variety of props to get Slinky through the arena:

  • Catch and fling the ragdoll Slinky around using trapeze-like Grabbers
  • Make Slinky grab onto flying Rockets and ride them through a maze of obstacles
  • Avoid electrical and flaming hazards which cause Slinky to lose lives
  • Dash in mid-air and burst trails of balloons along the way
  • Perform special acrobatic tricks to gain more fans

...And much, much more!
