About

This is a Celeste-inspired 2d exploration platformer, where you play as a guy, who found his self in a strange, mysterious world. He attempts to find his way back, to his world and recover the past. Collect strawberries, fight monsters, avoid spikes, solve puzzles. The game was written in 48 hours during the Ludum Dare 40 game jam. Enjoying it, and what to see more? You can support me on patreon ;) ld40.p8_15.gif He loves strawberries The game is written using tiny fantasy console, called PICO-8. It limits you to use 16 color palette, 128x128px screen, 128x64px sprite space, 128x64 tiles map. I really enjoy using it, tho it is really limiting. The game has 25 levels, including a BOSS LEVEL. I’ve spend a lot of time and effort on making everything look great and smooth (just watch on some animations ;)). Game will automatically save your progress. Also, you can swap the palette on go (read menu part for that)! I hope, that you will enjoy it! Controls Arrows - move Z/C - jump X - double jump from evil essences Enter/P - open the pause menu Two main things, you need to know: Look for objects with tint, they will help you or kill you. People miss those ropes a lot You can double jump from evil essences, once you touch them Speedrun mode Yeah, I want to go through this quickly, there is a speedrun mode, build into the game! Once you kill the boss, you from the main menu can select any level, you want, and train on it. The game also shows you your time and death count on every death. If you will speedrun it, let me know in the comments! Mechanics (pss, spoilers!) Jumping You can jump only from the ground Trampolines launch you up into the sky You can control your jump height, by holding the jump key longer/shorter Ropes You can’t jump from ropes, only climb on them using arrows Keys / berries You need to deliver them to the door/exit to make use of them Evil Once you use an essence, your screen becomes a bit more corrupted. This effect is being decreased if you wait, till the essence respawns. You can dash from essences using X Skulls die, when you use an essence Essences respawn with time Essences control the Dragon Fruit Ice Ice disappears when you touch it It respawns after a while Invisible blocks You can notice them, only if you are close enough to them They will block your way, and will not let you fall/pass Platforms Normal platforms bounce from blocks and destroy ice Cloud platforms go through blocks Dart Traps They shoot out bullets with the same speed, but always async Background Tiles If you see, that some parts of the background are lighter than the other, that could mean, that you can stand on them test_4.gif Huh, that was easy! The pause menu Screenshot from 2017-12-03 23-31-15.pngYup, this one Continue Get back to the game Next palette <3 change the game palette Restart the lvl Restarts current level To the last lvl Moves you one level back (not always aviable) Reset progress BE CAREFUL! This option erases your save (except palette and boss flag). That means, that you will loose all your progress in the game. General tips Don’t try to go fast, you can always make it slower (unless you are in the speedrun mode) Try to play with the palettes, strangely, but that helps to focus more on the content. I prefer the red and yellow one. There is an options menu (activate it using enter), it contains a lot of useful stuff, as well as the palette settings test_2.gif Is evil really so harmless? Change log v0.1d, v0.1f, v0.1e fix music not playing correctly v0.1c noise is not so annoying now v0.1b fixed kill() method issues, replaced default palette v0.1 Initial release for the compo
