An alien starship welcomes you to the planet, tells you about the TBD, asks you to explore, then proceeds to run tests on you.\r\n\r\nControls\r\n---------\r\nW - Forward\r\nA - Left\r\nS - Backwards\r\nD - Right\r\nSpace - Jump\r\nESC - Unlock cursor\r\nT - Timejump\r\n\r\nI used several built-in Unity assets and scripts, along with some code from my Ludum Dare previous coding endeavor (MiniLD #48: Dreamscape).\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nHINT (if you get stuck)\r\n-----------------------\r\n\r\nHow might you have gotten onto this planet?
