Ten Seconds Second by soulrot

[raw]
made by soulrot for LD27 (JAM)
A 'puzzle' game by OxySocks and Soulrot, created with Unity.

Get the special 'Second' unit to the exit within 10 seconds and more importantly: keep him alive!

Unfortunately we ended up with only 2 levels and less mechanics than we had hoped, but.. have fun!

EDIT: In response to feedback in the comments, the web version of the game now uses "SPACE" to place waypoints instead of RMB!

Controls jammed on web version due to right clicking.

Nice idea, but the yellow square seems to fall through the floor when you commence your plan of attack..

Feysoura: selecting "fullscreen mode" on the first right click prevents getting more of those context-menus. At least it did for us :/

Nice idea! But you should change RMB input because of web version

I think the game is glitched, I've tried a ton of different ways but the yellow guy just randomly dies before he reaches the end. I have no idea how to stop that from happening :x Nice concept though, could be fun to see more if it explained itself a little more.

I couldn't get my cubes to the exit, they always died :(
Also, having buttons more closely together (like enter and backspace instead of space and del) makes the game smoother to play.

I think the concept is pretty neat and can be expanded upon!

Wasn't able to get the first level unfortunately. Tried a bunch of times but I must kind of suck. :) I like the idea of planning my path through the space.

Kinda confusing to start, but the idea behind it sounds great. Try working in a post-compo version, guys.

I was confused about how to do it, but I got it in the end, nice idea :)

Interesting concept... I think you guys should keep developing this!

I like the concept a lot. I wish the walls were transparent or that you could rotate the camera; it was kind of a pain to get to some of the units and see some of the traps. I'm also not 100% sure I finished the second level like it was supposed to. (I just made an all-out charge for the exit)

Niggles aside, I think you made a great entry. There's variety in terms of obstructions, and there were interesting level design elements. It's a bit rough, but I think it got potential.

Looking forward to see what you guys come up with in future jams! :D
