Deep in the Forest by CodeGlitch0

[raw]
made by CodeGlitch0 for Ludum Dare 48 (COMPO)

Swing across the vines to collect points as you travel deep into the forest as fast as possible.

Controls

  • Move
    • Keyboard: WASD / Arrow Keys
    • Gamepad: Left Stick
  • Jump / Grab Vine / Release Vine
    • Keyboard: Spacebar
    • Gamepad: "South" button

NOTE: And for some reason, Unity decided that UI Buttons just absolutely will not work. So I had to remove the UI buttons for Exit / Play Again to avoid confusion. Unfortunately I ran out of time for the infinite forest generation and character modelling/rigging.

Cool mechanic, with some obstacles to avoid and maybe some speed power ups or something this would feel like a complete game, especially on mobile or something. I loved the way the vines swung around and deformed as well, looks nice.

The web version doesn't seem to be working right now.

Yeah... Flappy Bird, but with vines was sort of what I was going for. Too much life got in the way to make it happen fully, though.

Sorry about the website issue, I've updated the link to a different service. It should be working now.

Thank you very much for your entry - I hope you had great fun making it :smile:

Interesting idea :smile: a bit difficult to get into the flow - but nicely done :smile:

I hope you'll drop by mine and give it a spin :wink:

Catching the vines feels rly good once I get the rhythm. Like Tarzan through the jungle. I think a main character or enemies coulda rly spiced this up well.

48 hours is never enough time! Glad you got something working, and it's a cool concept. I got 9 vines!

High score 85. Not to brag. Echoing above, obstacles would've made this game really fun, but for a compo this is great! The only other thing missing is a loin cloth for your vine-swinging bean :)

I like the vine-swinging! It must've been tough to implement that
