But what mysteries are hiding in this, it seems, peaceful town? The Stranger (you) is about to find out... In Small Town, you get to sleep one night - or many more - in a mysterious town named Under Dale. Controls are simple (LEFT, RIGHT, UP to enter houses, SPACE to jump).\r\n\r\n-- Visit Under Dale! --\r\n\r\nAlso, tune-in to Under Dale's public radio, visit the town during the day and enjoy the view of the mountains! I hope you'll enjoy your stay in this small town!\r\n\r\n-- Developer stuff --\r\n\r\nSmall Town was written in TypeScript (so compiled to JavaScript), using VS Express for Web. The audio was made using cgMusic. The graphics are pen and paper (also GIMP for color).\r\n\r\nIt was tested on Windows and Mac (Chrome, Firefox, IE, Safari).\r\n\r\nEDIT: It looks like the game was unbeatable for some people, due to the keyboard configuration. This really sucks, but I had to make the corrections, because you really need to jump. Instead of Z, SPACE is now the key to jump. Big thanks to people in the comments.\r\nAlso corrected 2 typos.","title":"Small Town"}
