That Dangerous Bridge is a endless high-score game where you grab barrels of vine/beer/candies (whatever you want xD) and take it to your fortress. Sounds simple, right? It would be only if that haunted bridge wasn't there. It has taken countless lifes and is the only way to go to that abandoned, but endless fortune.
Would you like to take the challenge?

This game was made for the Ludum Dare #31 with the theme "Entire Game on One Screen".
Thanks to my family, because I wasn't at home all weekend and my friends who give me support and a place to jam in peace.
Overall great fun, love it. Audio fits well with the graphics and sets the right mood. Those meteors or fireballs or whatever are tricksy! What if the bridge would wobble for a nightmare mode?
Nice simple game. Love the animation of the barrel being carried. Cool that it has its own collision volume, so that a saw sometimes cut the barrel down while leaving the player alive.
The only thing that negatively stood out to me was the audio; the music gets very repetitive, and the sounds are kind of grating. Less harsh and/or more varied sound effects would have made it more pleasant.
Very solid pixel art style. Punchy music. Simple and clear UI. Pause button is greatly appreciated. Nice sound effects. Good variety of traps. Item bob while jumping is a nice touch.
Music was a bit loud. Pausing removes the bridge and player. X for jump is an odd choice, spacebar may have been better suited. Picking up items could have used a sound effect so it's clear when you can turn around.
I'd recommend expanding this if you have the chance, it's definitely something I'd play on my phone.
@KudukuForgiveUs Strongly disagree with the X/spacebar remark. Maybe spacebar in addition to X, but if spacebar were the only jump button I'd seriously complain.
@KudukuForgiveUs Thanks for check my game. I'm glad you like it.
The pause screen failure only occurs on the web version. I must check a solution about that.
Also I prefer using the "X" button, because for 2 things:
1. The "X" button is a bit more further to the arrows keys and more close to your initial position of your arm, so it a bit more comfortable to the user. 2. It's more personal. Sometimes the space button cause some bugs with the control. It happened with a game I made before. I don't know why.
Challenging. Never got far enough to see whether there were any more obstacles than saws and fireballs, but at least there were a couple of variations on those saws. Music did get a little annoying, but it wasn't an atonic mess of course. ;p Just grating after a while. Sound effects and graphics were nice (I only disliked the look of those lines for the saws' paths).
More obstacles would've been neat, but maybe I just missed out on 'em by sucking!
Fantastic game, really enjoyable. I loved the change of pace when the spiked wheels appeared and I had to stop and plan my moves. Also, it never felt unfair for me, there was always time to react to the obstacles.
I should stop abusing the jump button so much in every game I play though...
Great concept - little bit more content and it will be a very good game. Simple and interesting process, nice graphics, very fun dangers (rain of fire!=)))
Look deceptively simple but then comes the absurd amount of deathtraps preventing you from getting back safely across. Pretty addictive, nice animations and I love how the background music fits the whole impending doom mood.
The game controlled very nicely! I liked the concept quite a bit. The music seemed a little off from the setting? I dunno it sounded a little sad to me for some reason. I think the game would benefit from a goal amount of points to achieve or an ending. Also if you continue with this game I'd love to be able to see the saw hazards slightly before they appear (sometimes they would appear and kill me).
Overall a very nice entry! Fun to play. Good job! :)

I would love to add some more challenge variations, but the time was there as always. I hope to add some more on the future xD
I would like to see this game in great detail with tons of stuff added.
It's indeed way easier when you can jump :)

About the rest, I will check it.
