The Plan was developed as a side project by Krillbite Studio, who's currently finishing their main project Among the Sleep.
Comments from the press
- "Hey, You Should Play This"
- Patrick Klepek, Giantbomb - "Some may argue that The Plan isn't really a game and it definitely occupies the same terrain as Journey, Passage, and Dear Esther, but it's shorter than Journey, prettier than Passage, and less overwrought than Dear Esther, making it well worth taking a punt on for the low price of free."
- Jeffrey Matulef, Eurogamer - "It’s that space in the mechanics for thought and interpretation that I appreciate most here. The Plan won’t break your brain, but it’s a nicely contemplative journey."
- Nathan Grayson, RockPaperShotgun - "In order, here are the emotions I experienced during the three minutes it took me to play The Plan, the new free morsel from the Norweigan indie developer Krillbite: confusion, frustration, boredom, fear, amusement, delight, joy, enchantment, and regret. One of the things independent games ask us to do is accept that a three-minute game can be as valid as a thirty-hour one. Games like these make it hard to disagree."
- Joseph Bernstein, Buzzfeed - "Krillbite Studio, the developers behind Among The Sleep, have gone on and released a most polished, visually stunning and freeware new game"
- Konstantinos Dimopoulos, - "Krillbite's The Plan is a short, sharp experimental deliberation on the meaning of life."
- Andy Chalk, The Escapist

wow...i tought the comments were trolling but it really is an epic experiance that makes you ponder about life and the soundtrack is a masterpiece breathtaking almost
This is a very short game, but really much fun. You will know the life of a lil insect! Go and play it, another perfect game with all achievements is waiting for you :)
I've always wondered what it would be like to be a Fly! Now i know, its exuberating and exciting.
The detail that went into this is just amazing, i recommend all to try this! Fun & Enjoyable to the end!
A tale of friendship, love, marriage, heartbreak and death.
A common house fly believes in itself enough that it embarks on a journey to better itself
and to better mankind.
Along the way it meets friends such as Leaf but also enemies like Wind.
This game pulls you in with a simple design but then hits you with the soundtrack that makes
you wonder what a speck you are on this planet. Common sounds are loud and scary that are nothing
to humans.
All leading into a lore deeper than all Dark Souls games combined. (Okay maybe not.)
Are we all just flies on this planet? Tiny insects flying around in the vast emptiness of the world?
I don't know but I do know that this game fucked me up.
Ten out of Ten - IGN
I am not quite sure, what to make of it.
But since its free, a small download and strange experience, i guess you could try it.
There are many obstacles in life that prevent us from having a smooth, eventless journey. Be thankful for your hardships because they will help mould you into a stronger individual.
I honestly do NOT know what to make of this, you are a fly. you fly. um, I dunno who thought this up but, dude, you are one odd fellow! for that reason alone, you got a thumbs.... UP =)
EDIT:
oh. my. god. author, kudos! that is one heck of a suprise! we all got a HUGE laugh outta that ending my friend! This is the kind of game I would download for free, and after finishing it, dsend a donation.
5/5!
Style is good. Not really a game though. 5 minutes short. A-not-so-deep metaphor about life. Good for LOLs at the end. It's free, so I recommend - why not.
I tought the fly would acsend to be god or it's the big bang and the meaning of life and what I get? It flies into a lightbulb!
For some reason I really liked the 7 minutes gameplay :)
The game makes me feel nice and the soundtrack is very relaxing and enjoyable. The graphics are very pretty.
Soo, there isn't too much for this game, but I have to admire that it's beautiful!
I think you should just try it for yourself, as it's a free game :)

Well optimized, 60 FPS solid, great sound effects, greatest music. Must have, at the and, It was like it was so quick, I barely had a mimic, nothing to compare any experience.
It's quite the beautiful little game.
Flying around aimlessly, serving no purpose and then the ending is just..
I don't even know, it's just a twist.
I highly recommend this game to anyone looking for something calm and relaxing.
You won't regret playing this 5 little minute game.
When I was launching this game, I did not expect it to be so epic. I know, soundtrack helps a lot (Edvard Grieg - The Death Of Aase), but damn! This was a true marvel.
It takes 5 minutes to complete the game, but seriously -- try it. I highly doubt you will regret it.
Lasts 8 minutes
Great music and atmosphere
Has an interesting ending
Free
No reason not to try it
I'm not sure why I enjoyed this game.
I played it because someone suggested it to me for the super easy acheivement, which you can complete in just 10 minutes by reaching the end of the game and then clicking the credits box on the main menu. (+1 perfect game!)
The music in this game was very nice. I'm honestly not sure what was happening until the end, but even then it made very little sense. After killing yourself, you are presented with a white screen in which you can type. Now, this made no sense, but after sending your message, you get to see stars, and if you mouse over the individual stars you can see the messages other players have typed in.
Now, I don't understand the practicality of this feature, but its interesting nonetheless.
The graphics are decent and the game ran quite well on my low end laptop. A big thing for me is atmosphere and music, and this game did great with executing that.
A lot of this game made no sense, and it was very short, but I recommend playing and it is an interesting experience.
8.7/10
You know when you think you're board of all the games you own, and you scroll through your recommended games... Then you find this one. You think to yourself: "It's one on acheivment. How bad could it be?" You play it, look up how to get the acheivment, play the short game..
Then you hear the music at the end...
Well what can I say. If you thought losing your virginity was something to look forward to, think again.
While waiting to download this game I thought, "this can't be that good, the comments must be a bunch of trolls." But alas, I was wrong. This game is no laughing matter, with its replayability, amazing graphics, terrific soundtrack and beautiful story I can guarantee you that THIS IS A MUST PLAY. I never write reviews for games. Like NEVER. This is the only exception. Everyone i know that has played and finished this masterpiece has a new outlook on life itself. You will not regret playing this work of art.
Will you spend hours upon hours of time on this game? Possibly. If you do, you will forever have this experience to share with your friends and family.
THIS game, is what misguided people need. THIS game, is steams trump card. THIS game is an experience like no other. THIS game is, The Plan.
Press up, right, left. Struggle. Burn.
Smile, get achievement (100%) check the game timer. 5 min runthrough.
Think about the 5 minutes you could've done and what you've acheived.
Think positively...
"At least I got another stat on my perfect game."
"The music and the calming wind was there."
"No restarts necessary"
"Get to type wtf at the end of the game"
"Let's move on"
First of all, it's free. Not that that should be the only reason you should get this game, but it definitely should remove any hesitation to. Second of all, it's beautiful. The graphics and the music are simply beautiful. I plan on playing it again with headphones as suggested because I want that part of the experience.
Yes, it lasts maybe 5 or 6 minutes but you won't feel like it's a wasted 5-6 minutes. I found myself feeling growing attached to my little fly, prrobably more than I should have but I don't care. You sorta get lost in the visuals and the music and then in your own thoughts. By the time you reach the end, you are thoroughly and delightfully surprised by it.
Don't just sit there, download this little gem and see what you think.
3rd person levitating simulator. Just like Dear Esther, it is a non-game but with a minor difference; you miss nothing if you don't play it.
