Our particular approach to small world is a lonely survivor in a destroyed world, trying to make a last stand on a train that keeps running around the world.
"On a world ravaged by the madness of nuclear fire, a single train darts on hardened tracks through the desolation.
A single remnant of a once glorious civilization and a testament to the will of the only survivor that still proudly rides on it.
Not a single creature in this accursed land will ignore its passing. The blood of the survivor drawing them like moths to a flame.
Their numbers are infinite. You're the only survivor.
Let the ride begin."
We did the music with abundant-music (some *tuning* to get it right -pun intended-) but SFX are downloaded with public domain license, please consider it when rating Audio.
- CURSORS / WSAD = move and jump
- SPACE / O = punch

The game is quite unfinished and we expect to keep working on it. You will notice placeholder backdrops and even the animations are the first draft versions. The gameplay should be HARD (it's a railroad to hell after all) but not THAT hard, wish we had some more hours to polish it a bit. Now, see the "1" in the left bottom corner? That's the current cycle around the world. Try to get to cycle 2 at least, the game gets even harder!
Right now our plans are to keep working on it and upload new versions at some place like itch.io. Some of the important features we didn't do include a recurring nemesis/boss, other enemy types and dangers, more combat moves and a train that actually feels like it's moving fast.
Hope you like it!
