Infectious Void
Sickness spreads to your body while you venture deeper into this void. Gather too much of it and you’ll die - but beware. Everything will make you sick and only light will be able to cleanse it. Think twice before drinking a promising potion.
For this jam, IV has one level that introduces multiple game mechanics and gives opportunity for the game to make use of the special mechanic.

IV was made in Unity3D 2017.2 on Linux. I used Krita & GIMP for graphics and FL Studio 12.5 for Audio & Music. While I composed the music, I used Kick Drums and some other SFX from the FL Studio standard library and edited them a lot to fit them to the theme of the game. Most of the sound effects are cymbals or hi-hats with a lot of reverb and echo to them, thrown into a compressor that makes them sound distant. There was also a singer's "Aah" sound, which I used to create a haunting voice.
I started making this on Saturday 7am and finished roughly 1-2 hours before the deadline. However, I got distracted for some hours. All in all, I was very happy with my time management and I hope you'll enjoy the game! Leave your feedback below and visit again.
IMPORTANT: While the game does ask you to use WASD, Arrow Keys are a much better choice.
