Pixel-perfect platforming precision against the clock!

It's early days - I plan to add more levels and refine the ones that are there. Still not sure about Level 4.

Hi, Josh here! Comment your best times below! I'm particularly interested to see what people can do with level 4 - that one requires a bit of thought...

Thanks for giving it a go! Yes, I think the deeper you get, the more eerie atmosphere there will be. More things to find isn't a bad idea - I'll see what I can come up with.

Just uploaded a new EXE with a bug fix - the "levels completed" counter was incrementing every time a level ended, whether you successfully completed it or not...

I've posted a new update and video, showing new features around ending levels (both success and failure) and tentacles. Because tentacles.

Here's my latest project - a simple game with simple graphics about digging down in the dark, finding valuable resources and unearthing (literally) ominous secrets about the world beneath our feet.

"That is not water."
"Black blood of the earth."
"Do you mean oil?"
"I mean black blood of the earth."

Here's the current state of it - I've got most of the actual mining up and running,  but I still need to build a proper game around it - victory/fail conditions for each level, some sort of progression, and then story elements about what you discover digging underground, all alone, in the dark...

Apogee

Apogee is a cute casual game about picking up stars, avoiding enemies, growing orbits and beating the clock.

Simple keyboard controls (UP ARROW to movie outward, DOWN ARROW to move inward) and a variety of selectable colour schemes!

In it's current state, the game has an endless structure where you try to beat your best level and highest score - in the future I'd like to add a proper level structure and add more gameplay features like powerups and more enemies...

Inspired by recent "make a game in a month" dev diaries, I spent around two weeks working up this little gem. Simple, but I'm happy with how it turned out.

Stay In The Box. That's the title and that's all you have to do - just stay in the box. Obviously, the box moves. And changes. And there are other things. And then it gets a bit weird. I don't know if "minimalist horror" is a real genre, but it's what I was shooting for.

AVAILABLE ON: Windows, HTML5 in browser (although depending on your browser and PC, the HTML5 version may not give the best experience)

GAME PAGE: https://monkeyfluids.itch.io/stay-in-the-box

HOW TO PLAY: Arrow keys to move, space to not move. That's it.

EELEMENTARY: The Adventures of Holmes and Watson, Only They're Eels.

Can a one-note joke occupy more than about ten minutes of text-clicking gameplay? Almost probably! Play both episodes and try to find all of the endings! Or don't I guess!

If nothing else, it should give you something to look at while I work on ELEMENTGARY: The Adventures of Holmes and Watson, Only Everyone is Named Gary. (This is a lie - although if I was going to do it, the bad guy would be Garyarty. Brilliant.)

I've marked it as NSFW for language and drug references, but there's probably nothing that would get you fired if your boss glanced over your shoulder at it...
