💡 Idea:
It's All Falling Apart Like ... like what? Honestly, I have no idea, but I know that "*all*" can relate to anything. Your code quality as Ludum Dare progresses? Oh yeah, definitely. Same applies to your sanity? Yep, that's for sure. Your life? Yes, but hopefully not...

It's All Falling Apart Like ... is a game about controlling a thing with keys that can pick up good things and kill bad things oh and all the things also can jump and a lot more... This game... maybe it's a platformer, maybe it's a tower defense (or maybe it's a plane?), maybe it has battle royale elements to it or maybe I just believe that it does...

The platforms on each level are collapsing under the deepness of the subtle plot... You need to try your best to survive.

Do you see how many ellipses I'm using? Am I doing this for a joke? I don't know. You'll have to find out for yourself... Yeah... This is truly something... Really makes you think... 🤔

🏅 Features:
- Underground setting, *why? Well imagine this is like a mineshaft, so the falling wooden platforms actually make sense now. Simple™*
- 3 unique levels, *the ones you've never seen before. Because you've never seen this game. I recommend, 9/10, but needs more procedural generation*
- Replay value, *tons of it. You can play with your eyes closed, or maybe with your monitor upside down. Possibilities are endless, really*
- 3 powerups, *those are things that do good things for you. These can be the key to survival, no joke, especially when used by a real player and not by an enemy*
- Smart enemies, *those are things that do no good things for you. HEY, LOOK, THEY ARE SMART, ALRIGHT??? THEY ARE TRYING THEIR BEST TO COMPETE WITH YOU. IT'S NOT THEIR FAULT THAT YOU HAVE A BRAIN AND THEY HAVE ONLY 650 LINES OF SPAGHETTI CODE WRITTEN BY A DRUNK CODER. BUT YOU KNOW WHAT? IF YOU DIE YOU GET TO ENJOY ENEMIES PLAYING ALL BY THEMSELVES. HA. HAHA. THEY ARE FULLY INDEPENDENT AND DON'T NEED YOU* 💪😤
- Realistic combat, *this is basically your typical battle royale game, but it can be played on a potato calculator without Internet connection. Seriously, you aren't eager to play it yet?*
