Josef image
Josef is the main character of Machinarium. He's a playable character in the PC version of the game, unlocked after collecting 30 bandages.
Josef has an air-hover ability similar to Pink Knight, however it doesn't last as long, and its vertical height largely depends on the player's velocity. This can allow him to gain a lot of extra height under certain circumstances (while being pushed by a fan or even immediately after jumping if the one's timing is good enough). He is also able to perform a jump in mid-air if the player runs off a ledge without jumping.
Trivia[]
- Josef is a Czech variation of the name Joseph.
- In a poll on the Super Meat Boy forums, Josef was voted as the worst character in either version of the game. Out of 125 votes, Josef got 29 votes (23.2%), nearly double the character in second place.
