Moving too much in quicksand will make you sink and die.

It's always impressive to see 3D games in a 3 day game jam. Interesting interpretation of the theme.

Brittlo (Mini Jam #97)Cool concept that was pretty easy to grasp, although I only ever managed to get about 5 pieces of treasure before I sunk without a trace!

Do.Not.MoveVery creative interpretation of the theme and good use of the limitation. The controls also feel really nice. The death sound is brutal lol!
Nice game :)

endure[jam version]Thanks! Honestly not sure I've ever actually collected every possible piece of treasure lol. When it sinks to the bottom it despawns and isn't listed in the "remaining" count anymore. If you get every piece in the level before it sinks, the max score should be 32. I should probably display that somewhere.
Fun game! My current best is 6 pieces of treasure collected. Very nice concept with the quicksand. Well done!

lethal board gameThe cartoons I watched while growing up made me think quicksand would be a much bigger problem in my life than it turned out to be. I spent my life prepared to face quicksand, so I'm glad this game finally fulfilled that expectation! Great job! Although that death sound is disturbing.

Friendly Kaiju SimulatorInteresting concept. What is the correct strategy to get out of the sinking quicksand?

AssasinatorIf you aren't moving, just standing in the quicksand won't make you sink, but the more you move the faster you sink. Holding down control will let you float to reduce the speed you're sinking at (in real life you do this by laying back horizontally, but I didn't manage to add an animation for it..). Each pit is a cone with sloped sides that you can walk up as long as you aren't sinking too fast. So you need to try to head towards the sides once you grab the treasure and take breaks to float and keep yourself from sinking too fast.
EDIT: Published an update to add leaning animation, hoping that makes it more clear what's going on.
