CRYSTAL MASTER

You ran out of fuel again and crash-landed on another planet. Collect 30 energy crystals to get your spaceship off the planet!

Controls: - use A and D to move - W to build and climb ladders - space to jump - shift to throw bombs

This could be considered the sequel to Crystal Blast which was my entry for JS13KGames 2019.

I may post a post-jam version in the coming days.

Enjoy!

Nice effort, much easier once you realize you can spawn ladders at will in mid air

looks like it has potential, though i fell off the bottom of the screen pretty quickly

I love the art, and I think the autoscroll mechanic has the potential to make this game a lot of fun. I'm impressed you were able to do so much great pixel art. If you do a postjam version, I would increase the autoscroll speed a bit, and increase movement speed, especially while falling and climbing ladders. As it is, it's hard to use a ladder to go up because it's really hard to get off at the top.

What a great entry @jared-york

I liked the idea - the auto scrolling was something new to me and the pixel art showed promise :smile: Weird thing though - I only got to play once... when I reloaded the site it just gave me a grey box.. it wouldn't load.

I hope you'll drop by mine and give it a spin :wink:
