Above Lava is a 2D Platformer.


Make your way to the Altar!

Don't forget to bring the Gem with you.

But beware... the floor is lava!

Gameplay


Every step you take turns the ground into lava.

You can shoot snowballs in the lava to freeze it.

Shooting mid-air pushes you in the opposite direction.

Controls


A Gamepad is strongly recommended.

* Left Stick to move.
* A to jump.
* B to shoot.

I really love the concept of your game! Add few sounds effects and it will be much better ;) but congratulations, a very nice game!

Thanks @batlordz!
For most of us this was our first jam, we're really proud of having a "finished" product.
None of us had any experience in sound design so we decided to focus primarly on the other aspects of the game.

Really cool idea, the concept is pretty clever and it fits the theme well!
I think the graphics work mostly fine, although it would be nice to have an indicator of where the player is pointing at. The shoot + jump to push is often hard to get right because of it.

It's a really nice first entry, good job!
