Til Tunglsins by Pitoum

[raw]
made by Pitoum for LD28 (COMPO)
Til Tunglsins is about collaboration.
Humanity looks up at the dark sky and sees
Shiny and bright the moon sleeping there
With stars everywhere.
All together they start building a stairway
Just one for all to reach the sky by this way.

You're one of them.

Find stones and bring them back to the tower.
And try to reach the moon, all together.

COMMANDS:
LEFT/RIGHT: MOVE
UP: JUMP

CONSTRUCTION MODE:
LEFT/RIGHT: MOVE
DOWN: PLACE THE STONE

(Could be pretty long to download, sorry for the inconvenience.)

I couldn't put all I wanted in the game. Only worked on it the last day of the jam. Hope ypu'll enjoy it anyway :)

Very cool game and the art style is fantastic, though after grabbing the first block, I fell off the map.

Music is awesome. That hand-drawn graphics are good too!

The game looks like it could be something very interesting, but right now it has a couple bugs that make it unplayable (You can still fix these under the rules, as far as I understand them).
After picking up the block, I seem unable to actually use it, even on the tower. After it goes in to build mode and I try to put it down, the camera goes back to my guy, then shows the block near the top of the screen whenever I press space. You can also fall off the map on the right side. A little more work and instructions could go a long ways with this game. Also, cool art style. I hope you continue working on this.

I got enough boxes to consider my job for humanity done. I didn't reach the goal though. Enjoyed it a lot.

Good, but I can't place block, it says I will start with this one, but I have no idea how to place it, I have tried down key, space, enter... I love graphics!

Hi there!
Thank you all. I fixed some bugs right now. All instructions are in the description, but yeah, it's not very clear :)
To be clear, everyone shares the same tower!
apwolf: I fixed it, i forgot to enable the wall, you should have go back after picking up the first stone.

A very interesting concept, and I like the chalk art.

As other said, chalk art and the incidental piano music are very cool - just could do with a more intuitive mechanic for the gameplay, if you can take the spare blocks while you're on the tower, in the sections where there are an abundance of vertical routes, that'd make things more balanced. :)

I like the art and music. A nice and simple idea
