You Only Get 1UP is a simple platformer with a slight twist. In an alternate universe, God is fed up with the human race. Unfortunately, he declared at the beginning of the universe that 100 coins would give you a new life. So, he decided to punish all those who dare collect 100 coins. Can you reach the top and save human kind? Thanks for playing!
Love the graphics, love the music, LOVE the twist of classic Mario gameplay, and the humor works. Challenging, but keeps you coming back for more! My favorite game I've rated so far!
This is absolutely amazing, and everything a game jam game should be. Fantastic design and a blast to play. Graphics fall in that "perfectly imperfect" zone.
Interesting idea. My natural instinct was to collect coins, so some times I'd just go for them when I was playing without thinking! Very interesting to see how players can unlearn something so simple as collecting a coin in order to be able to progress. Good job!
A cool inversion of Mario, I like it! Graphics were nice, some solid bible quoting and enjoyed seeing the ways you turned coins into hazards. Good job.
ok, this is hilarious, and crazy difficult. I've been pavlov'd into collecting coins and hitting blocks and such fort so long... i'm not certain I can ever stop. x.x great work!
This game is amazing! The fist of God makes me laugh every time. The humor is great, but unlike many funny games the controls are really good too. The double jump is very cool! Well done!
Oh my god that was annoying! No, I'm joking, I raged in the good kind of way where you continue to play. I thought the art was funny and at first I was like, alright, this can't be too bad. And then as soon as I saw moving coins I'm just like oh my god.... This is going to be evil. I never managed to beat it but I got past the point where you have to jump on a turtle to continue. I noticed there were a few glitches like still "flying" even though you were on a block, and if you walk on a turtle you die. Anyways, overall, interesting game!
tjhis is very fun but it could be improved by ONLY GETTING ONE UP!!! A great idea, and I found it very fun. The 'only getting one' theme could have been emphasized further
This is a neat concept. It's brutally difficult early on, but it's not as noticeable as most difficult platformers, because you get 2 chances and most of the obstacles are coins.
I like the art style and the Mario references--it definitely feels like the darkest timeline version of the Mushroom Kingdom.
I love this! 5 star for the concept. A neat twist on the arcade game. I like the all the arcade references, it plays like an arcade but you really have to change your reflexes. This is one of those game I recomend to friends: 'look what they make at Ludum Dare'.
