Memento Mori is a narrative platformer that examines the changes that a person goes through during their life.
Controls:
Use any keys to advance menu screens.
Left and right or A and D moves.
Space jumps when possible.
Gameplay Tips:
All jumps are judged off of a ray shooting out of the exact center of the character. Time them with that in mind.
When attempting the slide jump, don't move. Allow time to push you onto the slide and just focus on timing the jump. If you move in air or on the slide, you will fail every time. This is intentional.
In the hospital, get in the door quickly, this will increase your character's age and jumping ability which is required to jump over the heartbeats. Additionally, the last heartbeat WILL kill you, make that jump too or else.
When in the collapsing world section (after the hospital) you do not need to worry about touching the red bricks that fall. They are only deadly if they hit your character on the top, from the side they will do nothing.
Hopefully this helps! Good luck and have fun!
P.S. We are working on a version with checkpoints so that players can complete the story if they desire. It should be completed within the day (4/19) check back for it or follow @DynamicPanicDev on twitter for an update when it is posted. Unfortunately this will be a separate version of the game since LD rules state that the original sub must be the one people vote on. Thanks for all of your feedback! Keep it coming!
UPDATE:
