Regain by ColdSteam

made by ColdSteam for LD30 (COMPO)

This was made with the Unity 4.6 Beta so I had to do some tricky stuff with the web player meaning that it isn't actually a web player.

For those using the web player the instruction page was wrecked(I really have no idea), So as a precaution they are also explained below.

You are ghost moving forward as you try to ascend to the surface. Your goal is to avoid the obstacles using the left and right arrow keys. As you go forward randomly steam vents will appear Lighter ones will bring you up a level while darker ones will bring you down a level, the difference in color is small so look carefully. Will you be able to regain your life?

Hi. As you say, webplayer version does not run in browser so not tested... I think you can put up a beta- published game, others have been.

Background sound and character art are very weird! But you achieved some nice overall work and everything is working well so, good job! The small beam of vision from the light we carry is a nice touch. Magic bubbles which transport you to another world could be balanced a bit : (1) The first one is too far from the start and I got a little bored in the first area because it's super easy. (2) On he other hand they appear so quickly in the later areas that I barely have to avoid 3 obstacle and I can already escape to another world. That ruins a bit the difficulty. (3) Finally I don't understand why you made a random transport? I would be clearer if it would transport you one world further each time, increasing the difficulty at each step, and then you reach the end of the game. Or could add a tricky transporter with downwards bubbles which would transport you back in the last level :) Just some thoughts!

PS : I didn't see it was a 48h compo, I thought it was a jam. So, it's even more well done ^^

Not a lot going on with long-term goals, but the brain can't help but wonder at the thematic connection between the worlds. Very interesting, which to me is a Ludum Dare achievement. :)
