TEXT-GEN PLATFORMER


Description

You are Lyx, a soldier. There's an invasion of alien robots in the city, and you must stop them!

Gameplay

- Enter text commands to control the player.
- Acceptable commands are 'WALK', 'RUN', 'STOP', 'JUMP', 'SHOOT', 'DUCK', 'LOOK', 'STAND', 'FACE', 'TURN', 'HELP', 'RESTART' and 'QUIT' ('QUIT' does not work in WebGL version)
- Getting hit by lasers causes you to take 1 point of damage, while direct contact causes you to take 3.
- Losing all 5 hitpoints or falling off the bottom of the stage is game over.
- Reach the portal at the end of each level to move to the next (3 levels in all).

Notes

- Some commands require two words, such as 'WALK RIGHT'.
- Mac and Linux versions are untested.
- There is a bug with platforms that only seems to be affecting level 3, and even then only at random; there are a few spots where the player either stops or falls through them. Just restart and it probably won't happen the next time.
