Controls:
Use the arrow keys to move.

About:
You must destroy the tree in the middle! To do that, you must first find and obtain the two keys that unlocks the gates that protects the tree! Watch out for enemies and traps in the maze! You can't harm the enemies, so avoid them!

Tips: Falling down won't kill you, and decayed tiles respawn after a few seconds.
Falling twice in a row is an "endless fall" and you will instantly die (otherwise you'd just go back and forth n amount of times til you're dead).
Good luck! Hope you enjoy the game as much as I had making it :)

DONT FORGET TO POST YOUR SCORES :D

Known issues:
When colliding with an enemy, it should get removed from the game, but this isn't quite always the case.
Explosions doesn't always kill nearby enemies within range.

This is an awesome game. I love the voices. The use of light/dark is super clever although sometimes super unfair :)

It's pretty cool. Too bad it has only 1 level

It's challenging, but if you fall down, it sometimes spawns you over a hole.

Pretty cool, nice sound design :D
I like the idea, not an easy game at all. I wish the torches would give you a bit more light, as I can barely see the difference between having and not having one.

Actually quite fun, but a bit frustrating when spawning over already removed tiles.

Fun game! Lots of interesting pickups and enemies. Great job!

An entertaining concept with nice graphics and audio to back it up. Did feel a bit awkward at times when it would either spawn me over empty space or on an island with no ways to the objectives, but that should be an easy thing to fix post-compo.

Interesting combo of falling floor puzzles and rogue like elements. I like it!

Really polished art & sounds. I found it kinda slow, but maybe it's just me :P I found a bug, in which after I had died, I respawned at an empty tile, and I fell again :( Really good job, keep it up

I love your game, I just wish i was good at it, Its quit unforgiving (in a good way) one wrong turn and you pay!. The audio is brilliant.

Quite jealous actually haha

Thanks for all the kind comments, everyone! :)
Maybe it wasn't obvious, but when you fall down into a hole in the level, you end up on the opposite side of the map. I guess I should've made that clear. Or maybe your bugs are something i havent discovered yet? :p

For the Compo too, gotta be my favourite game so far out of Jam and Compo - the audio flowed so well, and everything about it was really polished!

I really enjoyed the ideas behind the gameplay. What I didn't enjoy was respawning over an empty pit and instantly dying. I also didn't enjoy encountering dead ends. I think if these are fixed, you'll have a really fun little game.

GAH! Make it stop! Make it stop! Where's the mute button! Sound quibbles aside, neat idea.

@thenewphoenix: Thanks, mate!
@topaz: Wow, thanks for the amazing compliment! :o
@c63: Thanks. I agree the dead ends are a pain! time issues n all that. :D
@valon: Thank you!

Interesting movement mechanic. Feels a bit like rogue like movement but with more real time pressure.

Since you can get yourself into a dead end, I don't know if I like the disappearing platforms. Music is very repetitive.

Looks good, and has some interesting pickups to look for, which makes the gameplay more interesting.

really great game.. loved the art, loved the music and voices
had fun playing this..

I really liked this game, played it to completion, took a few tries, which is good you don't want it to be too easy. It's a fun little game and I enjoyed the humor elements and all the obstacles, it makes you think a bit. Also the game is pretty fair, if you die it's your own mistake. Kudos on that.

Very funny and quirky

Nice concept! I liked the audio clips that would play whenever something happened. The game itself, in my opinion, was very difficult. I would either run into an enemy or hop onto a negative stat effect before I could even react to seeing it. I feel like there should be a little more brightness initially to introduce you to the game before immediately jumping you into it. Nice concept, but very difficult to play.
