I really liked the game, but I can't seem to make the jump to the last area, I tried it for like 15 minutes and I always fail. At first I didn't notice the mushroom ball, so I spent 6-7 minutes trying to jump, that I could not. Maybe It would be a good idea to make the ball glow so the player noticed it more easily.  Beautiful visuals, ambient sound and level design. The idea of platforms in an fps 3d game is great. It reminded me of CS 1.6 platform obstacle servers. Did you use premade assets? If so, which ones, because I would love to make a game with them one day.

thanks for playing! Im not sure what version you have played as i messed up like 2 or 3 patches by reuploading the same file :(. In the most recent version the ball in the first section does glow, but still its true that there are no other prompts when looking at it.

I only took sounds from pixabay (check out the credits for specifics), the rest was all made for this jam specifically with blender and Substance Painter/designer.

Thanks again, im glad you enjoyed more than just the visuals :D.

Oh wow, you modeled everything. Great job!

The environments of this game are seriously amazing even with the small variety they have, you could make a full game in this industrial style and it would be truly awesome.

First person platforming is generally considered a bad idea and while it works alright here, it's hard to judge the distance.

Anyway, good job!

Ah, the horror of parkour.

This game was really nice though, the level design was great, and you did an excellent of job of using the lighting for sign-posting.

I realized how bad of an idea mixing platforming and horror would be midway through xD
thank you for trying it out!

This game is beautiful, and I really liked it, but I got stuck at the end.  And I don't really like the time-limit, mostly just because it doesn't really make any sense. We're not being chased so, eh.  But outside of that, this was really nice, I loved this one!

Developer(+1)

thank you for playing the game man!
there is actually no time limit, its just the fall damage system is bugged apparently, i will see if i can fix that in a patch.

Submitted

Oh really? Holy crap, that was so annoying.  I still have no idea how to get up over that last area either lol

Developer(+1)

yeah sorry about that, i pushed a patch though, the death bug is probably still there, but i fixed some things like respawning in complete darkness, added more menu options, and improved the lighting.
I also made the end last part easier to complete.

Sweet! I'll check it out when I get the chance!

This game is great, visuals are great, sound design is simple but complements the gameplay. Love being able to place platforms.

Have to say, these visuals are incredible! Judging from the screenshots atleast. Will try it out once I have the time.
