This is a parkour based game where you only have ten seconds to live. You can prolong your life by collecting health packs along the randomly generated course.
*LINUX USERS* To play, you will need Mono 2.10+
There are two modes: - Learn the Ropes (So you don't get frustrated with Normal): -You lose one health point every 10 seconds, and collecting the health packs gives you one life point back.
- Normal: -You lose one health point every second, and collecting the health packs restores your health points back to 10
There are 4 moves (Controls are given in-game in the menu): - Jumping - Wall Running - Sliding - Climbing (Make sure you wiggle around a little bit when climbing)
My team: - I did all of the artwork (aside from the fonts), as well as code, models, animation, and sound effects.
- My friend Lukas made the Theme music in the menu as well as the DnB loop during gameplay.
- Marobax (M@X) helped with ideas, balancing, and segment design.
My tools: - Engine: CraftStudio - Art: Photoshop - Sound: Audacity (in-game sounds), and Ableton Live (button sounds)
NOTE:
Windows users: - If you don't have it already, download the XNA Redistributable above. You need it to run the game.
OS/X users: - If you don't have it already, download the Mono Runtime above. You need it to run the game.
Hopefully I did well in my first official Ludum Dare! If you find any bugs, please let me know in the comments (if you can tell me how to recreate the bug, try to include that as well).
Created a nice feeling of tension here, although the music was a bit grating the end. The game turned out really fun. Not sure about the keyboard layout you have but I found the Z key to be really awkward to reach for the slide move. Some of the mechanics tended to be a bit twitchy, but not surprising given you got so much working in the time. Really impressed with this effort. Well done on completing your first ludum dare :)
Really awesome! I like the funky physics (though it is exploitable to stay a lot in the air). Like the other people here said, it just needs a bit more polish, and please never use the Z key ever again :)
Hmm... I used the Z key because I play a lot of FPS games. So I guess it felt normal to me because im used to it. I can patch in an alternate key as well... But what would be best?
Awesome work! Nice music, good visuals. I love parkour and I speaking as someone who used to be all into the freerunner's mindset; THIS IS THE BEST GAME. Haha, no but seriously nice work. I liked how, like in parkour, there were often multiple paths for each "puzzle" (if you will.) You sound effects were rushed, you could tell, but at least you added them! Keep it up!
Really enjoyed it and shows what you can do with CS, more variation in generated obstacles would keep it entertaining for longer. While the z key feels a little awkward and a first I was constantly walking into walls I'm now leaping over everything! A prettified map and more music and it could be even better.
