Based on the horror movie of the same name, The Entity is an unreleased action game in which your goal is to move the Entity to the highest plane of existence before your energy runs out.

The game is divided up into several rows (planes of existence). Between each of the rows is a portal (hole) through which you must force the Entity. This is accomplished through the careful placement of walls. The walls are moved by pressing the joystick left and right. Once a wall lines up with the portal it will 'lock' into place, thus giving the bouncing Entity no where to go but up.
