Description

An adventurer loses his footing and falls into a deep chasm.

Lucky for him, his flashlight made it down in one piece.

Unlucky for him, there's not much battery life left...

Controls

`WASD` to move. `Space` to jump, `Shift` to Run.

`Tab` or `Middle Click` to open your inventory

`Left Click` to use/toggle inventory item

`E`/`Right Click` to activate/pick up things

Note -- this game uses tessellation shaders and runs much better with a good videocard.

Unofficial stance on invisible walls -- why would we spend precious time working on things the player will never see!? Madness!!

A very good game - but let down by a few bugs, such as if you fall off in the elevator stage, you fall infinitely and if you pick up one gear in the same stage, you can still place down two, leaving -1 in your inventory.

Otherwise, an excellent game.

My enjoyment was hindered by the game not running very well on my computer, and I kept getting stuck trying to climb ropes properly. I did love the whole mood of the game with the darkness and the music was spot on. Very good atmosphere, though I wish the game play felt a little better.

The game has a good theme and overall concept. But, it has some bugs in it. Plus, you should always upload some kind of a screenshot or cover of your image. It shows the user what they can expect from the game. Plus, not having any image kinda shows you weren't serious yourself while preparing this page. Anyways, it's a good game. 👍

Mood was great, I felt like I was up the creek without a paddle. So Kudos for you getting that atmosphere nailed - for me at least.
Though it is very buggy, and very slow to run on my PC i did enjoy it, despite getting stuck in the walls a few times.

Nice game with a solid concept just needs some bug fixing.

Hey @spiffy - we were just wondering - what were some of the bugs you saw? We're thinking of making a POST-LD version where we polish up some of the bugs. Additionally - what areas were laggy? I think all of us have solid gaming PCs and might not have noticed any significant drops in Frame Rate.
