Nebs 'n Debs is a Homebrew Platform Game by Dullahan Software.

Debs is an astronaut whose spaceship crashed on the alien planet Vespasian 7MB. Nebs is the pink alien cephalopod who's taken up residence on Debs' head. Together, they will run through 12 levels full of enemies to collect all the parts of Nebs' ship so she can get off of this hostile alien world.

The game was funded on Kickstarter on September 21st, 2018. It was released in February of 2019. It's playable on browsers, and the Nintendo Entertainment System.


Nebs 'n Debs contains examples of:

  • Action Girl: Debs, who charges her way through every obstacle in her path to regain the parts of her ship.
  • Bottomless Pit: What kind of retro game would it be without them?
  • Dash Attack: The two can pull this off.
  • Death Throws: Lose a life, and Debs jumps up, then down off the screen.
  • Head Pet: Jury's still out on whether Nebs is Debs' pet, but he spends the game sitting on Debs' head.
  • Interactive Start Up: You can move Debs around on the title screen, and even collect the gems on it.
  • Name and Name: Nebs 'n Debs, naturally.
  • One-Hit-Point Wonder: One hit is all it takes to do in Nebs 'n Debs.
  • Springs, Springs Everywhere: There's some sort of object in the game, presumably an alien plant, that will launch Debs upward should she jump on it.
  • Wizard Needs Food Badly: You need to keep collecting crystals to stay in the game. You lose a life when the counter in the bottom right corner hits zero.
