Gameplay

Super Lemonade Factory is a puzzle-platform game where players assume the role of two player characters after World War II, Andre and Liselot. Andre's father offers the soft drink factory to his son after he and his wife, Liselot, make a tour of the entire factory. Liselot can perform a double jump, push crates, and talk to other characters, while Andre can smash bigger crates and carry Liselot. The player will need to play as both characters to finish the levels. A level editor based on the Ogmo Editor was included in desktop versions.
