Under Pressure by BuriTeam

[raw]
made by BuriTeam for LD29 (JAM)
---- The game ----
Finally out of work. Time for some delicious pizza on your way to warm home sweet home. But then, just before you get into the car everything changes. You find yourself waking up in the middle of destruction. Where is the building? Where is everyone? More importantly, can you survive?

---- Controls ----
WASD + SPACE BAR + MOUSE We don't recommend playing this game with a touchpad.

---- About the LD -----
It is our first story-based game. We had to leave it with only one puzzle due to time constraints, but you know. It's a jam. It is supposed to be a 5 minute experience.

This game is awesome. I couldn't figure out exactly how the "hands" thing worked, but the art was amazing and I had a good time playing.

The art styles kind of clashed and moving things out of the way with space bar was a little confusing. Was interesting though.

Is it supposed to end with the slide into death? Otherwise it was really cool, it combined a side scroller with a pseudo point and click puzzle

Hehe hey JPC! It is actually possible to end the game with life. You have to loose less life or get some refreshment before going for the last slide..

Brief but intense. The music and audio fit very well, and the hands mechanic works well.

Hi, this is Vector from the Victory Garden team! (posting under Solifuge's account)

This is really neat! I dig the art style. It's a weird balance between chiaroscuro and blocky pixels, which has its own sort of flair. The sincerely great voice acting and sound direction are what really sells it for me... I was genuinely relieved to see my character get out of that place.

Obviously the level design and length needs work, but you already know that. I'm looking forward to seeing more from you folks!

I'm not sure what to think about the art style - it's kinda strange how you combined super low res pixels and drawn backgrounds...

The winner of Mood. I also like the mix of pixel art and draw. If have lights, would be incredible.

Very moody, cool art style. I wasn't clear on what to do with the hands though.

Great atmosphere and tone. Loved the claustrophobic tunnels. The same cursing repeated every 5 seconds could have used some variety.
