Wrecking Jail by Guilloteam

This game was made as part of the Ludum Dare, which theme was: "Limited Space".
Disclaimer: the game is playable from start to end in its browser version, but some people seem to have rendering bugs in the UI, so if the score display disappears and the leaderboard is empty, we recommend to try the windows version ! We hope you'll have fun eitherway!
Known bugs : - The heal won't appear on the UI, but it's functional. - Some parts of the menus sometimes disappear on the webgl version

Oh no! You've been captured by your worst enemies, the infamous space slimes!

You managed to escape last time, so they imprisoned you in an unbreakable jail!
Find a way to make them pay! :angry: :anger:


Super simple ! :smile:
Move with W / A / S / D -- Z / Q / S / D -- Directionnal arrows
Space (hold) to charge recklessly.

Great job also on the leaderboard! Did you guys use plassion for it?
Great animations, art style, fun gameplay. Just all around great! And all in such a short time!
The take on the theme is really fun and inventive, the artstyle is amazing, the music is great !
It is challenging to avoid enemy attacks while in your cage AND stomping on them, it is really fun to play !
From the scores in the leaderboard I can deduct that there are many jammers who played it definitely more than once - including me - and I think that is the best praise a jam game can get :D
Le concept est génial, original et marrant ! J'ai adoré, il coche toutes les cases !
Il y a rien a dire vous avez géré ! comme d'hab ! :D <3
Des bisous la team !
Good work!
i really like that i can do a quick dive to the other side of the ring as a dodge
I love the simplicity and immediately-engaging you've built this game around. And the amount of polish you were able to jam into this is seriously impressive!
Thank you everyone for your great feedback ! We managed to get the 16th place in the overall category, which is by far the best rank we got in Ludum Dare, and it's all because of you !
We have a discord where we talk about what our team does, game jams and game development. Please come in if you want to see more about our work or want to talk about game jams in general ! I'd also love to see what you all do next, I'd be glad to give feedback on your next games :) https://discord.gg/fkE66TRTHC
When we are not doing game jams, we work on Midnight Blood Rush, our first commercial games. It comes from Count Down Dracula, the game we made for LD48 ! It's a fast paced action roguelite, where you play a vampire sucking the blood of his enemies !
The steam page is here, adding it to your wishlist would be extremely helpful for us, as it is the only thing that gives visibility on Steam. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2502310/Midnight_Blood_Rush/
