Electro Rush
Electro Rush is a 3D Platformer Game.
Here, you are a robot with a very limited battery. You need to reach the end before the battery ends.
KEYBOARD
WASD: Move
Space: Jump
Mouse Right Click: Dive
ESC: Pause Game
XBOX CONTROLLER
Left Stick: Move
A: Jump
X: Dive
Pause Button: Pause Game
EDIT-----------------------------
I updated the game to fix the camera problens and make it more playable. The first version had a very sensible camera, so it was pretty hard to play. I hope you enjoy.

the camera is a BIG issue for me. Also the same texture evevywhere makes the 3D spatial recognition a bit hard.
Other than that I love it :)

Double jump was nice, cliff hanging was a great surprise. Using the mouse for movement I had to turn down my sensitivity to make it work. But it worked much better with a controller. It was a little hard to see where I was supposed to go at first. A little visual indication of where the player needs to go is really helpful in a platformer. Nice entry!

Character graphics are looking good, camera movement seems inverted

LeoLFerraz5 Apr 2022, 14:50
It's got cute graphics, but the inverted mouse controls and lack of contrast in the wall colors makes it really hard for me to play. At least it speaks clearly to the theme of the jam, which is more than most submissions this far.

I've managed to finish it, and I must say: it's lacking control settings. Controlling the camera with mouse is pretty disorienting and simply difficult, considering it's both high sensitivity and inverted. However, the player controller feels very nice, levels were enjoyable and I'd actually play a platformer like this if this was a fully fleshed out game. Nice job!

The game looks really nice, but unfortunately the camera movement made it almost impossible to play. Inverted mouse & sensitivity would definitely improve this!

Super nice game. The camera sensitivity and inversion changes work well. I love the character design and could see this game being extended further into a really fun platformer.

amazing graphics!!!! its look really nice.

Got passed camera sensitivity issues with the options menu provided (even having that in a jam game is a pleasant surprise). Love the character model and feel of jumping around -- and I appreciate that you can hang onto the edges!

The robot character is very cute! I love their animations and how their lights react to the remaining battery power. There were a surprising amount of movement mechanics for such a small game - double jumping, diving, rolling out, hanging, and wall jumping - that go a long way in making it more interesting to play; I was able to figure it out from re-reading the description, but I feel a controls button in the menu would have been helpful as players might not otherwise realize that there is a dive button in the game. Some ambient sound and some additional textures would have gone a long way in making the game livelier and more vibrant to match the protagonist, I think, and a drop shadow underneath the player I feel could have helped eliminate some of the guesswork in the platforming. Lovely game!

cool character, interesting energy concept, really ties in with the theme. Level two was a bit challenging, but that might just be me since I dont really play 3d platformers. I think with clearer indication of how you can transition into a wall jump it would be perfect. Other than that, great game! had a really good time.

There is a lot to love here, in general I found it quite fun. I would have loved some checkpoints at some spots. But the platforming felt quite nice so not many complaints there :smile:

Very fun!
The default settings of the camera y axis being inverted was a little frustrating - nice that your update version has this option to toggle it.
Sound effects were cute, just like the robot!

Nice game

fizzbark9 Apr 2022, 08:36
Nice game, the character roll/dive felt really good and versatile in a way I haven't seen before. It would've been cool to be able to combo together some wall jumps with the dive to get height like in 3d Mario games but not being able to change direction mid-jump makes that difficult. As other people have said, checkpoints and different textures would've helped make this feel a bit smoother. Also falling of the platforms sometimes felt a bit punishing especially when on low battery - death would've been kinder than the wait lol. The diegetic battery/timer/lifebar was inspired, and it felt great to use the little recharge pads

Great take on the 3D Platformer genre! It would have been great to have a shadow for the character as this helps a lot in these kind of games to get some jumps right. Besides that the overall platforming leveldesign was top notch. The levels are design to teach the mechanics as you play and that's awesome!
There character and the animations are extremely nice!
Like most of the LD games, this game is pretty hard. Checkpoints would have been soooo nice!! I really liked the game and would have liked to see the end but the complete reset was a bit too frustrating - at least for me :sweat_smile:
Overall an amazing entry. Good job :slight_smile:

I like the movement, but the leveldesign was kind of lame. I for example don't really know what to do at those cogs, and every attempt at it I have to replay the entire game, which is prety slow paced with the elevators. Checkpoints would really help, but it would take away from the inevitableness of the game, I get that

Awesome prototype, keep working on it!

Robot is so cute :3

I had a lot of fun with this game. Did you make all animations during the jam? They are really smooth. It was really hard for me to guess my position over the platforms. Maybe one could at more clues like dropping a shadow or some light or particles over the ground. I'm quite impressed how polished this game looks.

Bem interessante. O jogo apresenta uma plataforma bem comum, visto em jogos do mesmo estilo, mas com o diferencial da temática. Acho que o jogo poderia ter mais elementos que remetessem mais ao "Delay the inevitable", já que tecnicamente a gameplay não esta atrelada a esse conceito. No geral, bom trabalho!

This is an impressively complete and well designed 3D platformer for a jam. Unfortunately there are issues. The controls feel floaty and many of the animations, like climbing up the ledge, are too slow. It's also incredibly brutal having to restart the entire game with each death, considering how impressively long it is.
Also, I couldn't help but recognize the default Unity probuilder texture in there on, well, everything.
Still, this is a cool demo, and with some polish it could make for something solid. Nice job.

otherwise, it controls better than most LD games, not to mention 3D Platformers.
