Ludum Dare 37: One Room

The Game

Story

You are trapped in a gigantic tower.

All levels are connected and form a big room.

Your mission is to beat your way through all levels and reach the top of the tower.

But beware! If you make a bad move you will fall down and hopefully land on a lower level.

Controls

You control the unicorn with the arrow keys. The map is draggable with the mouse so you can get an overview of the level.

Bonus

As a bonus we added a map editor for you to design own challenging levels.

Funny ! What engine have you used ?

@tommarx69: we used libGDX with a custom library on top (https://github.com/CaffeineProcessorsUnited/superior-game-library)

I like to see a game not made with fancy game engines like unity and UE or GM... I like that this is a puzzle and there is my most loved fantasy-Animal in it. What shall I say! I love it. Props to coder!

Cool idea.

Sadly, the levels turned out to be too hard for me pretty quickly.

Still, I like the puzzle mechanics you used.

The music in this game is pretty good. Sadly, the levels got way too difficult way too quickly - it took me quite a few tries to beat level two, and I have no idea where to even start with level three. It's a good puzzle game, though.

Fun puzzle game!

I liked the interesting variety of puzzle tile types, and the simple and effective art.

The puzzles became rather hard, so the "drag to view" feature made a great gameplay difference, letting us plan ahead.

Nice entry! Also, nice to see LibGDX used in another game.
