Otzi's Last Journey by jomomomo
Otzi's Last Journey
You only get one... button (space).
You only get one... life (eep!).
Play through the last run of Otzi the Iceman, an ancient man discovered in the Alps between Austria and Italy.
Collect as many flowers as you can for Otzi to bring to his bride at the bottom of the mountain.
(Otzi should have an umlaut, but I can't seem to figure out how to include that in the name of the entry -> anyone have any suggestions? When I paste it in it looks like this: �tzi)

Took a while before I understood that I had to use space to move -- I thought space was only to start the game.
Pretty brutal game, really - that's a lot of arrows. I'd love to see who's chasing him. I had no chance at surviving more than 2-3 flowers, so I'm not sure if there's a win condition.
I remember an exchibition about Otzi in a museum near where I live - got disappointed when I could only see Otzi on a webcam though.
Poor Ötzi, getting attacked by a whole battalion of archers.
record: 15 flowers
not sure it will work on ludum though.
BAD : Too difficult ! Too slow (maybe he accelarate later ?), too small
IDEA : Double press on "space" to jump or boost ?
It would be better if you had a title saying "press space to move" and either give me grace-invincibility for a few seconds, or don't shoot arrows so quickly.
I got 15 flowers and died. Does the game continue the same way or does it get different? It would be more fun if it got gradually harder and of course if there was a possibility to win (I don't know if there is one)!
The difficulty could be a bit lower however, or progress smoothly as you run.
