A simple jumping platformer. Help John find his way to Zion. Jump though 10 exciting and crazy levels! Collect orbs to open gates.
In case of motion sickness. Try to disable "Shrooms" under Settings. (Forgot to change the name!)
Tested on Windows 8, OSX Mountain Lion and Ubuntu 12.10
Second Ludum Dare entry and first time composing music. I think it went better than expected. Did not have time for optimizing, so the game can take quite some CPU. If you get weird unregular controls, try setting messing with the options in the settings menu.
The crazy background color and rotation can also be disabled in the settings menu.
i realllly like the mood set by the environments. the lighting is really cool. but your character being a big orange-ish rectangle kind of clashes weirdly with the great style.
Pretty cool version of TWA, jump collision felt a little splashy sometimes but the atmosphere\music, little touches like the gently swaying level all cool
Got to the end! My game have almost the same ending and main character looks very alike :) A little annoying that you need to be maximum accurate in movements or you will fall and have to climb back again.. and again.. and again. Very good level design work though!
@Yezu Oh forget to fix that! Shrooms was a reference to an internal variable. It should have said crazy mode or something like that. Disabling it removes the swaying and background color changes.
Are the shadows rendered real-time? If they are, there's such a huge amount of potential wasted by not making something move in front of the light sources, it's almost sad. :/
The ambience was really cool though, and I was not affected by the dizzying effects, excellent job!
This was great, I really like the atmosphere. What you did with the shake-effect (felt like it all took place on a ship), the lighting and the ambient sound is really exceptional and totally pays off. The only complaint I got is that it's really quite repetitive and a little too long (John seems to be of the same opinion). Other than that it is one of the best LD26 games I've played yet.
good sense of mood and nice to see a game which follows a character through a story. it was a little slow paced for me but a really nice game none-the-less

But some jumps were to hard to achieve.

What are shrooms?
Oh forget to fix that!
