About Earnest Evans

Earnest Evans is an action platform game where the player navigates levels filled with environmental dangers. These include hazards like bottomless pits, spikes, and lava, alongside hostile gangsters and monsters that must be dealt with.

The protagonist controls using a whip and can perform actions such as jumping, climbing ropes, crouching, and crawling. His quest is a continuation of his grandfather's archaeological work from the 1930s, which sought three legendary idols capable of causing global disaster.

Fifty years later, Earnest faces opposition from Brady Tressider, an evil syndicate leader determined to thwart his efforts. This narrative connects to the events of another game, El Viento.
