Silex is a game about rescuing folks from rocky platforms that are slowly falling into the sea. Drive your magic rescue machine over them, and make sure to drop them off at the safe zone before the time runs out.

Currently just one big level, though you can imagine how it would progress, with you having to save more and more people from harder environments.

Plays in browser, supports gamepad and keyboard. If gamepad (or something else) doesn't work, try using chrome. There's instructions in the game.

Nice! Would have liked more levels, but thats the compo for ya. We had very similar ideas of 3d platformers with unstable ground lol. I would come back to this for a post-jam version with more levels.

Thanks @pbg - yeah would have liked to have shown more, but planning to do an updated release after the compo. Thanks for playing!

Cool entry! I enjoyed moving around to save people. As mentioned above, would have liked more levels, but I understand you did what you could in 48H anyway :) Good job!

Would have liked a bit more definition/character to the vehicle but, other than that, it shows promise.

The idea of rescuing people from an unstable environment in some sort of all terrain vehicle is an awesome idea. Obviously there's not much to do in your game since it's so short, but the foundation is there for you to build it out into a full game if you wanted to.

It was really short, but I had fun driving around the world. The vehicle was fun to drive and the controls were responsive. Good job building this in 48 hours

Had a lot of fun, getting some speed up and jumping around. Great potential. Great Compo entry.

This has great potential, whish it was longer!

Loved the physics and it felt good, would have loved to see the platforms collapsing, or people running. Really liked that there was a radar to help me navigate. Great to see another Godot entry

Really good one! Also nice edits on how the platforms became unstable!

I liked the take on the theme but to be honest I found the implementation of resque-the-people a bit boring. The controls were pretty good though, I liked the way the vehicle controlled. Good job on the compo though 48h is not long!
