Ranked from 9 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

How does your game fit the theme?
Player has to jump between moving walls and rack up the highest score.

As the theme is CALM BEFORE THE STORM, this game starts slow, and the moving platforms will slowly get faster over time. Hence, the calm before the storm. It's gonna get crazy after a while.

It's gonna get harder when Zeus is angry.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
This is a team collaboration.

Why is zeus so mad? :D nice entry!

Developer

We based the game on the story of Apollo's son Asclepius, the guy known for the snake staffs that medical institutions like using as a symbol now. He knew how to raise the dead so Apollo asked Zeus to smite him and turn him into a star. So Zeus is mad for a real mythological reason: You're a necromancer lol

The idea is simple but addicted. But you can actually slide on the left side and no need to jumping around the others platform. Anyway good game

Developer

Yeah I discovered this bug but we didn't have time to fix it before the deadline for the jam unfortunately. I'm glad people like the idea and my very rushed artwork.
