This was my first time participating in something like this and though it's missing some texture, animations and have a few bugs, I'm still happy that I managed to get the core structure down. This was a lot of fun and if I have the time I'll definitely be here for LD49

Game Description: In this game your objective is to reach the depths of a cave trying not to be killed by the monsters living there. Do you have what it takes to reach the sacred checkmark?

Info:

Game Engine: Unity

Coding Language: C# (Visual Studio)

All sound effects where made by making a random noise in to my mic and then doing som editing in audacity.

I did use Reason for the music/Ambience, though I just used random sounds from my piano. For anyone interested the sounds where "Dark Moon" and "Church Bells"

I made the graphics in Piskel

Tools: Audacity, Piskel, Unity

Well done! A solid first jam entry, and clearly you put a lot of time in to get the graphics drawn and audio effects created.

Interesting adventure! Got far, but hit a waterfall and then couldn't get out of the water. It would be nice to add auto-reloading weapons.

Well done! It is fun and has a quite big map, I especially liked the falling down effect

Well done for a first Ludum Dare entry. I found it superhard and couldn't get very far. The audio is great!

Had a decent amount of fun with this. I think you did a good job creating a challenging game that was fun in the moment. Having such little life really pushed me to be strategic, and I liked the quick restart so I could test new tactics. No comment on the graphics and audio since it's obvious that was not the focus of your time. Great game overall!

Great job entering Ludum Dare! It's an obsession to be sure and you are on your way! Congratulations!

This was almost fun :) It was a bit too hard, and not seeing what monsters you were going to run into was very unforgiving. It would have been good to find more health along, or just have more life! The falling down the cliff was pretty cool. Didn't manage to get much past there though.

The walking/sliding physics are a bit wonky and I would die due to getting stuck sometimes, but other than that a very solid first entry :) Shooting mechanics are nice and the reloading adds to the difficulty
