Dies Auxilii by DrSkort

[raw]
made by DrSkort for LD 43 (JAM)

Your plane crashed and now this game is all about surviving until you get help. Sometimes sacrifices have to be made. Warning: This game is kinda dark.

Controlls:

Movement: A / D and Left / Right Arrows Pickup Item: E Use Item: 1 / 2 / 3

The game mechanic is very simple. You have to survive and try to keep people alive.

I actually planned a lot more content for the game, but I had almost no time this ludumdare and that's why I just finished the base game without animations, good sounds etc. I hope you can still enjoy it.

Good Luck :)

Known Bugs:

You have to press the Key a few times and move around a little bit. Why is unknown, yet.

The game concept has potential. I dont mind the lack of animations. However the prompts and actual permissible interactions are not completely in sync. Also I wish the game had a little more choices.

@najmm thank you for the the feedback. I actually planned a lot more choices and game elements, but I had no time to implement them, because I was really busy this weekend but wanted to make at least a small game.

I think you have an interesting thing on your hand here. Without animation of any kind, it's not good. But with animation, this would be an absolute treasure. Please keep working on this. Unless you have other things to do. I get it. lol But seriously, I'd like to see where you take it.

@jdelaay025johnd1788 Thanks for your feedback. I am happy, that you liked my game. Actually I am working on another project, but I want to finish the game it was meant to be, too. Probably this won't be soon, because 1st I want to make progress in my other project and 2nd was I kind of depressive when I finished this game. I think I over stressed myself a bit and had to high expectations, but now can I enjoy a small pause :D

exactly. now that you have more time, it should afford you the ability to relax and think through everything you want to add. just remember not to go overboard when it comes to scope like i did in my game. Not sure if you already have but you should check it out.

I'm really digging the mood you were able to bring out in this. The over all game is simple and very expansible. Nice Work on this!
