A silly platformer about exploring the depths of a mountain

You are an explorer traveling into the "depths" of a mountain. This platformer is more about falling than jumping. Every drop is an obstacle, and you must carefully control your movement if you want to make it to the bottom!

Controls

- Use ​the ​Arrow Keys​ or ​WASD​ to carefully descend, if you hit anything too hard you will die!
- ​Use Z to toggle the CRT effect, and X to toggle the music (please consider leaving the music on, as I spend a lot of time on it)

Tools

- Art: Aseprite, PAINT.NET
- Music: Ableton Live
- SFX: Recorded in Audacity
- Engine: Godot 4.4

~~For anyone wondering, my best time so far is 7:56.58 with 18 deaths~~

*My best time is now 5:31.11 with 8 deaths, the video is in my LD profile*
