Lestac by almightysuit
UPDATE: we're making Lestac into a full game! You can preorder it on itch.io, more info is available on:
>>> http://amos.me/lestac <<<
Lestac is a bright and young man lost in a dull world. On his quest for a way out he will encounter several strange personages, which all crave for a special object (or two...). As a master of bargaining, Lestac will surely find a way to trade anything in exchange for some precious advice or items!
The game has an end - make sure to explore everything, there are hidden secrets all over the place!
============
Controls:
Arrows (left, right): movement
Down arrow: crouch
Space: jump
Down arrow + shift: pick up item
Shift: throw or use item
Choose and take each item strategically as you can only carry one at a time!
============
TROUBLESHOOTING - if you have problems with the game, please paste your app.log somewhere and link to it in the comments so we can see what goes wrong.
CHANGELOG:
- 1.0.0 Dec 17, initial LD72 release
- 1.0.1 Dec 17, crash fix on Windows/Mac where the game would keep too many files open
- 1.0.2 Dec 17, fix for disappearing items - they'll know warp from screen to screen even when not held by the player
- 1.0.3 Dec 18, more 'item disappear' fixes, along with
- 1.0.4 Dec 18, made it much easier to grab ledges
The changes above are minor, gameplay-breaking things that we've fixed - there's no new content, no new features, etc. - from the usual LD rules, that's fair game :)

The building distances being different were a little confusing and it was kind of hard to tell which ones were which, but a fantastic entry! Definitely one of my favorites so far :)
Couldn't get the game to run properly on Ubuntu. It started, but I couldn't get anything to happen.
I appreceate haveing a linux download, and am hanging on to the game to try again later.
My first impression on the game :3 unfortenetly it was lagging badly because of the streaming app (I tried again without the streaming and it was fine resting at 60fps all the time.)
