Title: Xelpher [puzzle\platform game made @ Global Game Jam 2012 in Rome]
Post by: LostTrainDude on Sat 04/02/2012 16:19:19
Hiya all!

I'd like to share with you the wonderful experience I had at Global Game Jam this year in Rome where, with other 4 people, I worked as Game, Level & Sound designer for a puzzle\platform game that involves a fluffy animal who has to break free from a cursed, yet beautiful mirror he bought from a traveling salesman.

(http://globalgamejam.org/sites/default/files/uploads/2012/21917/Capture.PNG?1327828964/)

It works only on Windows (at the moment) and it was made with Game Maker HTML5.
Like every other game in the Global Game Jam, it's open-source :)

I had great fun designing and working on it and I hope that you all can enjoy it!

I tried it and in the 2nd level, I can't move. I get squashed every time.
What am I missing?

Good to see you had the time to participate in the Global Game Jam.

This is a very enjoyable, little game you made. There are some wily puzzles - simple but clever.

Keep it up!

Is this a giant pause symbol falling down?

Knoodn has got the point :) Follow his tip.

And if it you still don't manage it...

Yep I did it! Thanks a million! :) I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Ah I forgot to say: all the sounds were made by me, with my own voice and with some items I found in the place we were (i.e.: panic bars)

Fun little game that involves a lot of thinking-outside-the-box, great. :D
Had fun playing it although I'm not sure if I really understood the cut scenes well, oh well. ;D

It doesn't run on my computer.
