Go Big by Tatu Heinämäki

[raw]
made by Tatu Heinämäki for Ludum Dare 56 (JAM)

In hopes of going big, you venture into a dungeon to seek treats that are told to help you. The dungeon's shadows hide many dangers... and secrets.

Three different endings and a fourth secret one.

Developed for the Playdate as part of the Ludum Dare 56 jam.

Thanks Dan and Lorenzo for playtesting! Original rabbit sprites by sjukpension for the game Rabbit Race.

Version 1.1 features bugfixes to cranking, enemy movement and ending triggering.

Are there playdate emulators somewhere to try this?

@josep-valls You can download the Playdate simulator here: https://play.date/dev/

IIRC you need to register as a developer but after that you can freely play any games you can get the pdx file of. Thank you for being interested in my game!

Great idea! It's really good game. Even if it has pixel graphics it's unbelieveble good! Really! Great job

Hello, nice to see an exotic platform. Unfortunately I don't have a Playdate but I used your link to the Playdate simulator and it worked ! That's not as good as having the console in the hands, but at least I can try it.
I liked the graphics and the exploitation of lightning in assets with 1bit graphics.
I had to restart multiple times the game to understand what I have to do to have a better ending, with the emulator I didn't had the reflex to "turn the handle" but after some tries, I did it and it was satisfying.
Congratulations for your entry, I hope you will have enough vote !
Note: you should put the instructions for the Playdate simulator in the game description and if you vote for a lot of games I think you can have a rating !
