Get To The Roof by sop the turtle
You went to someone's house to watch the stars on their roof. However, it seems like you're stuck in some infinite looping staircase. Can you figure out how to break the loop so you can see the stars that night?
Source Code is available on git here: https://github.com/soptheturtle/unity_learning/tree/master/GetToTheRoofCode
A button on Xbox or Left Ctrl on keyboard interact with everything. Move left or right with arrow keys or joystick.
This was a fun activity (albeit stressful) but I really enjoyed learning and working on a game in such a short amount of time. Thank you so much for playing! If you encounter any bugs or have any questions feel free to report them here or on the itch page.

EDIT: BTW, This works in Linux in Wine
@zacharieg Thanks for playing! I agree on the graphical improvements are necessary. I hope I can figure out some place to take this game post-jam.
@burnedkirby The buttons are your standard hit them in the right order puzzle. I definitely needed to include some context markers to let the player know if they did it in the right order or not. I also had trouble coming up with a way to provide the solution in a clue. I will probably include that in an update once the rating period for LD47 is over. Also thanks for finding out works on Wine in Linux. I don't have Linux myself so wasn't able to test that out. I appreciate it! Thank you so much for playing it!
@judgezedd Thanks so much for playing! Glad you liked it. I always try to have an ending for game jam games so the player can have a sense of completion.
@rgilpt Thanks for playing! I really need to learn more about how to compose better music. Mostly why I left audio out of this one. I've tried with some other games in the past and let's just say that I have a lot of room to improve there. Thanks again!
I don´t know if there where clues for the Button riddle (had to do the trick with the source code, too ; )), if no, this would be something to improve.
I liked the game, simple, but clean graphics, nice attempt on the theme! I liked it! Sound would have been great.
@eugenik Thanks for playing, glad you like the simple graphics!
@phillserrazina Thanks so much, also glad you like the graphics!
curious about what tools you used, the player sprite has it's origin point somewhat misaligned from the center, not sure if you do this intentionally or what's up, but at least collisions still work fine even though the sprite clips into the stairs
oh and by the way, no stress with the monster bud, i eradicated him properly so your house should be critter free now, and the stars shined brighter than ever, must be little light pollution in the area!
It's very simple, it had a puzzle and some story. Audio might've been a nice addition. Pixel graphics were nice. It played well and smoothly. Also got to see them stars at the end! It was really casual, short little game.
Overall it's nice for your first entry! Good work!
