Nixtopia is a action adventure game in which you have to escape from an underground laboratory. The reason why you are kept there and by who, is a mystery. It's up to you to explore the facility and find out how to escape from there.
However not all the graphics are in their best shape, we decided to submit the game, because it is still a game. Have fun! :)
Controls: W,A,S,D + E for item pickup and interaction with objects.

I love adventure games :) The crafting table was a nice idea instead of having an inventory. The ammo amount does run out but does not update in the UI so I had to replay to kill the last enemy. Well done on the audio if you guys did it yourselves. The graphics are better than most ludum dare games. I think Jenna's next adventure needs to be on more than one screen :P
Yeah, the sprites will be definitively refined. These are only place holders, since we hadn't enough time to make them. :) On Sunday afternoon we got this new idea, before that we were working on something different, but we quickly dumped it. So in the near future you'll be able to play an enhanced and much longer version of Nixtopia. :) Thanks for all your comment!
This is a great concise entry! well done! I love how it ticked so many boxes! Female lead, crafting system, hiding in lockers, Key Cards, Powering up terminals, avoiding killer robots... reminds me of another game I know ;) Excellent work tho. I enjoyed this a lot, well done.
Hey, I'm sorry that you couldn't run our game. I've uploaded a fixed version - for some reason Eclipse wasn't creating a manifest file with the exported files. All good now, feel free to take another look and let us know what you think.
I'm downloading your game now and I'll give it a go a little later on today. :)
Good game. Controls could be more intuitive. Crafting items is a good idea, but I didn't like the combat gameplay. Items could use a description, name or bigger pictures because some of them are hard to recognize.
Definitely a good start for such a small time frame. I beat it by trial and error on a few spots. Bone animations looked good. Nice Job!

Didn't rate: i couldn't see anything beyond the room with the computer, but was able to pick up a fire extinguisher (even though i was offscreen). Probably a resolution bug? I'm using OS/X with a retina screen, so sometimes this happens. I'll come back towards the end of voting to see if there's a fixed version to rate :). Beautiful art style btw
The sound was really great! This was ambitious for a LD game! The sprites and backgrounds were very detailed. I could tell sometimes there wasn't a complete animation sometimes but that is to be expected. I liked the idea of the crafting table but that's really where I got stuck. I wish the items had descriptions or some kind of hint. Great idea and good job!
Nice submit
