Vicious Trap is a fairly simple game (and everything but easy!!!) I've developed in the first Ludum Dare I participated in. You're trapped inside a box that has some weired gravity where you'll have to dodge the spikes to survive. How long can you survive? Make sure to post your highscores down below! (Mine was only 14 ._.)
Tools used in the making of this game: - Gamemaker 8.0 Pro (making the game) - Adobe Photoshop (artwork) - Sfxr (sounds)
Update (8-12-2014): - Fixed loading screen text - Added zip file download
@Mokosha A little tip: if you double tap the jump button quickly you'll jump exactly far enough for 2 spikes, when you land you can double jump over the 3 spikes again ;)
It's a simple concept and it's been seen before, but I find this one very nicely implemented. I like the physics effect when you jump over the corners. The animations are awesome and the blood effect when you die makes it all even better. :D Great job!

Its very difficult and it took me a little to get used to the way the physics works thought.
Well done!
Great job!
Interesting idea.
