P.O.W.D.E.R. - Powder On Wild Days Explodes Randomly
Play as a delivery elf who must maneuver around obstacles to prevent his package from bursting and deliver it to one of many towns. You can consume the exploded powder to get a buff, but things might get even worse... How long will you resist before giving in to the powder's appeal?
Gameplay

- A/D (Qwerty), Q/D (Azerty) or Left/Right arrow / D-pad/stick direction: select previous/next powder keg
- Left click on sparking powder keg: consume spark
- Press Space/Enter/Xbox A button: consume spark on currently selected powder keg
- Press Shift/B/Xbox B button: boost (increase base speed level up to 5 times)
System

- N/M: switch to previous/next resolution among standard presets (you can always resize the window in windowed mode) - on Linux, you may need to move the window a little afterward to force refresh
Debug

The game was initially released with v0.4 for Ludum Dare 53 classic Jam deadline (72h) in the Unfinished category, then updated and re-released in the Extra category (3 weeks deadline). We kept the latest version of each development phase on this page:
- The classic Jam releases are tagged v0.4.
- The Extra Jam releases are tagged v1.0.
Note that any future post-jam updates will be uploaded to itch.io (https://komehara.itch.io/powder). Just check if it has any version above 1.0.
v1.0 - Extra jam release
See itch.io changelog for more info
v0.4 - Classic jam release
The game is unfinished.
- You can move in the level and hit obstacles, but powder buff effects are not triggered as designed.
- You can still click on some powder buffs to consume them into better or worse effects, but the gameplay effects are not visible.
- Some sprites and artworks are missing or replaced with placeholders.
- You cannot lose, your health bar just stays at 0% and you will finish the level anyway.
