The Great Mon Climb
First attempt at Trijam from August 9th through August 12th.
This game is called "The Great Mon Climb" It's about a space man climbing Olympus Mons on Mars. It's based off of The Oregon Trail.
------ HOW TO PLAY -------
The game uses basic Pico-8 controls. Simply press Z or X on your keyboard to progress! Ctrl-R will reset if you die.
Note: In future updates there will be options to eat/survive with your rations/oxygen. For now it's luck of the draw to try and get to the top of the mountain.
------- TO DO IN FUTURE UPDATES----------
- More events
- Death screen
- Victory screen
- Restart game without CTRL-R
- D-Pad options for proceeding, eating, resting, etc.
- Better animtions
- Better mountain detail
- Twinkly stars
This game is absolutely not finished, however in the spirit of the trijam time limit I went ahead and uploaded. I may polish it up a bit later but for now enjoy my very first game jam submission!
EDIT: It appears my HTML file didn't work when uploaded. I re-uploaded after the deadline passed.
