I liked the puzzle-y aspect of this, and the monochromatic visuals look very good.

Would have loved to have some for of progression, like:

  • harder, narrower levels that force you to take more risks
  • a number of steps you need to achieve to be free from the graveyard (to move to the next level)

Cute little sprite too! :)

Thanks, I might after the jam, fix up the game and add actual progression into it.

nice game idea and visuals! if only there was something to show progress in some way ( other that the health) but nice submission!

Developer(+1)

Thanks, there is a way to show progress but it may be hard to see. Under the fuel bar it shows how many steps you have taken.

I like the pixel style, however not too sure of the goal

Developer

The main goal is to survive as long as possible, the score under the fuel bar will increase every step you take. try to get that score as high as possible.

Nice pixel style! game mechanics also reminded me of a turn based "baba is you".  sometimes, the movement was a bit buggy and i was also once able to go through an enemy without losing. But overall I had fun ^^

I enjoyed the puzzle aspect! Also, the little visual tutorial at the beginning was a nice touch.

Good job! I'm assuming that the point of the game is to last as long as possible?

Developer(+1)

Yep, stay alive as long as possible while managing your fuel.
