Wherever This Will Take Me

Wherever This Will Take Me is a short puzzle platformer where you carry the checkpoint with you. But be careful and don't lose it!

Movement: WASD or arrow keys
Pickup: S or down arrow

NOTE: Unfortunately, there is a bug where you won't see the end scene if you don't take the device with you into the last room.

NOTE 2: In rare occurrences, you can get stuck in the floor. Unfortunately, that is a soft lock and you have to start the game again. Fortunately, the game is pretty short (5 - 10 mins).

The idea for the game was to give the checkpoint a more prominent role. It is not just there to make sure you don't lose progress, it helps you make progress. I tried to incorporate the theme of the jam within the story, which is about people meeting not at the same time but at the same place.

I know there is a lot missing, I simply ran out of time. I would have loved to create more puzzles and explore the idea further. There is also no sound, some visual glitches, and unfortunately, there is also a rare bug where the player can get stuck in the tilemap (I blame Godot's physics engine :P) And I did not even have the time to upload anything but the web build.

But I believe the game is still fun and interesting and I would love if you would give it a try :D

Assets:

All the graphics were made by me during the jam.
I used a character controller that I made myself for a previous game. Otherwise, all code was written by me during the jam.

The game was created with Godot and PyxelEdit
