OxydOxyd is a computer puzzle game released for the Amiga, Atari, Macintosh, PC, and the NeXT platform by Dongleware Publishing. It is a game of puzzles and tests that challenge you to restart all the oxygen generators (called Oxyds) on your home planet. The player controls a small black marble that rolls around and picks things up, touches things to activate them, and bashes things to move them. The game's playfield is called a landscape. To get to the next landscape, the player must open all the Oxyds on the current landscape, which is done by touching them, but they will only stay open if you touch Oxyds of the same color in sequence. There are clues on many landscapes: some are helpful, but others are confusing or not so helpful. To help the player there are bombs, dynamite, lasers, mirrors, hidden passages, and other useful items. To retard the player there are bottomless pits, crumbling floors, slides, pools of water to drown in, quicksand, and assorted traps. At the time of it's release, Oxyd gained enough popularity to spawn a number of squals: Oxyd Magnum, Oxyd Extra, and per.Oxyd (also known as Oxyd 2). Additionally, Oxyd itself was a sequel to a lesser-known game, called Esprit. The Oxyd series is no longer maintained by Dongleware, however, the free game Enigma is a clone.
