The Death Pit Will Have You! by Uraffululz
You, a lost mortal soul, have been summoned by the gods.
We seek your compliance, and offer you a moment's distraction in return. Then, you will return to your fall.
The task we have for you is simple: The floor below you is disappearing, one section at a time. Replace lost sections to survive as long as possible. Inevitably, though, THE DEATH PIT WILL HAVE YOU!
Input:
Keyboard WASD to Move
Mouse Left Click to Place Floor

Thanks to everyone for playing my Ludum Dare 50 submission. Enjoy some great games!
- This game has quite an "Atari" feel (in a good way) but in 3D.
- It's simple but pretty fun!
- I don't know if it's intentional or not, but I really like that you can sneak between panels diagonally.
- I noticed that the panels that fall from the sky can drop straight on holes, making them impossible to catch (this may be intentional though). The game gets considerably harder the less panels you have, because recovering slowly becomes impossible.
- It also becomes more interesting to play because you start creating strategies about where you should place the panels to void trapping yourself in an island. However, at times it may seem unfair because lots of panels fall down into the holes without giving you a chance to get them.
- The controls are pretty simple and responsive.
Good job!
Maybe it would be nice if the panels didn't go directly to holes, or maybe that was intended.
Also, the falling animation should be a bit more clear.
Thanks for making this game!
You gotta try to keep as much floor connected as you can or else you get stuck and must accept your fate :) and those new floor tiles really don't care about landing somewhere useful do they? Being able to diagonally cross floors made me feel smart, so thank you for that.
Only thing missing is sound, juice, and for the hole to have fire or spikes at the bottom.
I would have preferred a key to place the tiles (I found the left click not to be very responsive sometimes).
It would be interesting to add some tiles that can replace several tiles in a row/column to add more strategy to the game.
My best score was 92 seconds (20 tiles placed)! after several attempts.
