Maze Charger by Veak
My first game and Ludum Dare entry! I hope you guys enjoy it.

We are in the labyrinth. Labyrinth is invaded by snakes. Labyrinth power and our power running out.

Find the teleport point and save yourself. Don't forget to collect batteries. Labyrinth uses your energy when it needs to. It could be dark :scream:

Jump on the snakes. Maybe you can see the teleport point :wink:

Batteries' position have to be reduced and improved but having two energy sources to fill is a good mechanic to make the player frustrate.
Music is also enjoyable but the loop is so short, so a bit repetitive despite adding new "instruments"
Good job :)
Just a sidenote, I had a hard time reading the energy percentage text when the labyrinth was well powered and brighter. Maybe you should change the font color as the labyrinth gets brighter, so it always contrasts with the background?
Anyhow, good job :)
@kapricorn-media Glad you love lighting :) I think lighting is most important thing for the games and I tried to do my best. You right, I can change the font color according to the light. Thank you!
Pretty good game!
One thing, the labyrinth charge mechanic was a little confusing, I thought it was just a way to drain power from you and maybe a spooky monster popped out past a certain percentage! I only realised after reading these comments that it actually lights up the area. Also, I don't quite get what you meant by jump on snakes, I couldn't see anything from jumping on them, I kinda just guessed where the end was lol.
Anyway, awesome game for a first entry! Keep at it man!
@drums I was watching you and it was fun :smile: I'm happy too!
@mickeyg Thanks for suggestions! Actually I made a lot of mistakes. You can climb some snakes and you could see finish point :grin:
couldn't figure out the point of jumping on the snakes or how to actually get to the end.
Had fun though, good job :smile:
