[edit] Gameplay
Dweep is a cute and cuddly purple creature who must negotiate a series of dangerous obstacles to rescue defenceless baby Dweeps.
Obstacles include lasers, heat plates, bombs, and lots of other hazards. Dweep must bypass these using only available non-violent tools such as mirrors, wrenches, and buckets of water. The non-violent, mentally challenging nature of the game was a deliberate design feature.[1]
[edit] Awards

- Dweep won the 2000 ZDNet Shareware Award.[3]
- The sequel, Dweep Gold, won the 2001 Shareware Industry Award for Best Action/Arcade Game.[4] (beating out Arkanoid for the honour)
