Synopsis
The player plays a character called Qoosh, who is placed in various test chambers by a test administrator. As the game progresses, the test administrator tells the player how several of the chambers have not been approved by the government. During one level, a character called Mr. Smith comes to evaluate a chamber.
The test administrator tells Smith about the project, chambers, and some functions of the chambers. He also shows Mr. Smith how he can instantly kill the player, although Smith is unamused. Mr. Smith presses a button which eliminates the distance boundaries for the Qoosh's warp boundaries.

As the player enters the next level, the player is told by the test administrator that the testing facility is being shut down. The administrator goes on to say how it seems that Qoosh and him have formed a bond. As Qoosh reaches the end of the level and goes into the final room, sirens sound as he is held up by a seemingly invisible object. Qoosh dies after the test administrator says he has no use for him anymore. |
Levels
Qoosh consists of 14 levels.
