Welcome to Space Runner



This is my first ever game jam entry, I am so excited I actually got something finished.

Intro to the game

You have been sent on a mission to gather resources in space. With the aim to get back to earth as quickly as possible you are literally trying to run out of space and reach your rocket. You can however only travel small distances from planet to planet until eventually being able to reach the earth.
Movement up in space is different than on earth so you were smart enough to bring a jetpack! Be careful though: Manage your fuel charges and use the jetpack with care. There are obstacles that you otherwise may not overcome.
Aim for as many resources as you can get, those make up your primary score and are needed to complete a level.

Controls

With the theme in mind I went for a "space" focussed control system. All you need to play the game is the spacebar
* Hit `[SPACE]` to jump and
* Hit `[SPACE]` to use jetpack while in air
* A pause menu can be brought up hitting `[ESCAPE]`

Play SpaceRunner


Right now you can play the game in Browser or download for Windows and Mac.

I'll be working on the game further to improve it with all the feedback I've gotten. You can follow me on Twitter or itch.io if you're interested.
