Arrow keys to move left and right. Spacebar to eject
This Ludum Dare the team was put under pressure due to unavoidable circumstances, so there may be a few things slightly wrong or glitchy. Russian Dollies is a game about a cute Russian dolly and the fun adventures it has. It has ten shells, each being slighter inferior to the last. Ejecting the doll out of the shell explodes it outwards, propelling you up. Use these boosts carefully to maneuver the levels.
NOTE: We attempted to be clever by using a different definition of 10 seconds that didn't refer to time. ("Subordinate or inferior in position, rank, or importance.", referring to the 10 Russian dolls.) Might not be clear as we planned but ah well. You get a bonus for finishing levels under 10 seconds so there's that too.
Yay! A more interesting use of the theme awesome! I also tried to incorporate 10 seconds in multiple ways (in my game weapons have a 10 sec timer but you're also stopping fat people reaching 10 second helpings) so really appreciate what you did there! All in all pretty cool and visuals are great, have you played "Stacking"?
awesome game, need a bit more work on backgrounds but its great. The 10 second representation is super forced, btw the bizarreness and black humor in it its great.
Loved the humor. It was a truly WTF-experience. The connection to the theme is a tad loose (yes, I read the description) but the game is definitely a solid entry. Good job!
The ending was totally fitting this game. xD It wasn't that much of a challenge... but it definitely was weird and dark. My only objective is to take those happy looking Matryoshkas to their demise?.... ._____.
