This is a Jam submission to VimJam2!

Welcome to tightrope crossers, a small puzzle game centered around bossing about and exploiting your friends to get across a tightrope! There are only a few levels right now, but they include plenty of mechanics that could be played with in a future game (hint hint...)

Who worked on this game?

Just me, it was stressful but I made it!

What programs do/did you use?
  • Unity for the engine
  • Visual Studio code for scripting
  • Gimp for sprites/concept art/UI
  • BFXR for sound effects
  • Bosca Ceoil for music

How to play

Controls

You need a keyboard and mouse/trackpad to play

  • Enter to boot up the game
  • Left/Right arrows to move
  • Up arrow to jump
  • R to restart
  • Space to place helper (Helper will be placed at mouse position

Gimmicks/Mechanics

It wouldn't be a jam game without unnecessary gimmicks, so here are the ones I have:

The rope is a line that you need to get across. It is featured in every level. The rope, however, is very weak. It's on the edge of breaking. So in some levels, the helpers may put pressure on the rope and cause it to fall or snap.

The helpers are your friends that you exploit for your own needs. You can boss them around in various ways, like summoning them or pushing them.
