Awakening by 8BitCharlie
We did our best to make this game look and sound as the game for Sinclair ZX Spectrum 48k!
CONTROLS: left: 'A' or left arrow key; rigth: 'D' or right arrow key
It starts with COURAGE.
Download and enjoy...

Why "html for download"? You could upload it on itch.io, should work there.
I would love to see what you come up with next.
If you need any help with setting up your site on itch.io I could give you some hints, like example CSS code or something. :)
It's interesting to see a game where you can only move left and right and the only way is downwards. This reminds me very much of the game Roll by Nifflas. Though I didn't really understand what the point of the really long falls was, starting from love and joy.
I actually reached past 8!
Sadly, the very long transitions makes it painfully slow to complete. I think most people will click off between 5 and 6 and think they completed it and think they're just falling forever as a win condition without seeing past 8. ...but y'know what? Props to the musician, because the music is so nice to listen to for a long time as this one and it's a pretty memorable one too!
Great job! I just wish it's a bit more shorter... well, the falling at least.
@huskylover269 Thank you. You beat it. ;-)
@zathnic Thank you! You are right about health bar and colors. If there is post-compo version, I will fix it. Fall between first and second level was one screen and every next fall is twice as long as the previous one.
@fiakaiera Thank you for your feedback. It is really appreciated.
Good job :slight_smile:
Hard to understand what's happening at first. Even when you understand the rules is easy to get stuck. I was stuck in a loop of reaching level 3. Once I got passed there it seemed like all the later levels were relatively easy. :shrug:
There's also these long falls, where I wasn't sure if I broke something, or if they were intentional...
I did managed to reach the end (I think?)
I really like the music, and the concept as a whole. Good job!

@ismael-rodriguez Thank you. Yes, they were intentional. Yes, you managed to reach the end.
