And Then You Fall (LD50 Jam Entry)

Content Warning: Illness & Viruses

(Patched as of 4/5/2022, the majority of issues should be fixed) Protytype: Maybe horribly broken due to submission close to deadline. Made a lot of changes last minute and couldn't test them.

And Then You Fall is a game about a cashier of a faceless corporation just trying to do their job. However, they had just gotten back after getting sick, and now struggle to do their daily tasks. This is a game about delaying the inevitable, the inevitable realization that the life you had before is gone, and now you must forge a new path, or struggle in your old, dead life forever.

This was an entry for Ludum Dare Jam 50. my first ever Game Jam I completed on time. I intend to update this project in the future and make a full release. There may be bugs, there are a few known game breaking bugs. If the contest allows for bug fixes I will push them out.
